Simon Steel India is a manufacturer of LTCS pipe fittings in Mumbai since 2004. Must refer price list of ASTM A420 WPL6 Elbow. Low Temperature Carbon steel fittings at resale price.

An ASTM A420 WPL6 Elbow is a standard component in low-temperature services to change the direction of a pipe. These fittings get manufactured from a carbon steel alloy with other elements like manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and silicon. WPL6 implies a normalized carbon steel grade that has successfully undergone a Charpy impact test for ultra-low temperatures. The material can get comfortably used at -50 degrees Fahrenheit. It is popular in condensers, marine engineering, paper and pulp sectors, wastewater management, etc. In fact, WPL6 is the most commonly used grade under this specification.

Simon Steel India got founded in 2006. It has grown into a leading manufacturer of ASTM A420 WPL6 elbows, boasting 12 years of experience. The company provides hardness and impact test reports to ensure product quality and required features. The minimum yield strength of these elbows is 240MPa, while the minimum tensile strength is 585MPa.

Low-temperature carbon steel or LTCS or Pipe Fittings are imperative for low-temperature applications. This material is normalized, i.e., heat treated to adapt to severely low temperatures. A WPL6 tee connects piping of the same diameter at 90 degrees. It is an excellent choice for industries operating in cold weather or severe winter. Deep-sea projects also rely on these components.

WPL6 reducers are employed to reduce the pipe size to adapt to the needs of the installation. These fittings can adhere to specifications like ASTM, ASME or ANSI (depending on the customer needs and budget). The fittings can be welded or seamless. You will see them often in shipbuilding, offshore refineries, water piping, etc.

Simon Steel India also supplies LTCS pipe caps. These seal the end of a pipe and get employed in hydraulic and pneumatic pipelines.

Check hardness and impact test report of low temperature carbon steel before buying material from India.

The two types of piping components use the same material with identical composition. A non-destructive testing is generally unsuccessful in distinguishing the two. The main differences between Ltcs (Low-temperature carbon steel) and CS (carbon steel) fittings emanate from heat treatment.

CS fittings contain a low to medium percentage of carbon (0.20 to 0.30%), copper (up to 0.40%), manganese (maximum 1.65%), silicon (up to 0.60%), sulfur, phosphorus, etc. Other elements, like chromium, nickel, cobalt, niobium, molybdenum, titanium, etc., may be added for specific metallurgical properties. This material has excellent weldability but moderate strength. Their machinability is impressive for applications that don’t experience low temperatures.

Ltcs refers to normalised CS designed to work in low-temperature applications below – 150 degrees Fahrenheit. The heat treatment alters the mechanical properties and makes the material stronger. It gets widely used in the cryogenic processes of spaceships, welded pressure vessels, and chemical plants.

Stockist and distributor of carbon steel piping products in Saudi Arabia can purchase A420 WPL6 buttweld pipe fittings at lowest price and can resale with decent margin

Simon Steel India supplies high-quality A420 WPL6 Buttweld pipe fittings to diverse industries like oil fields, shipbuilding, natural gas piping, and power plants. These components use a carbon steel alloy that contains manganese, phosphorus, silicon, and sulfur. It is a high-strength material with minimum yield strength of 240MPa. It also has an impressive tensile strength of 85MPa.

The company offers these fittings in different dimensions and types based on the customer requirements. You can order buttweld fittings of various kinds, for instance, elbows, reducers, pipe ends, and tees. Usually, WPL6 buttweld pipe fittings are available from ½” to 48” and thicknesses from SCH10 to SCH 160.

The price varies with the dimensions, schedule, and specific requirements by the client. The average price of a schedule 40 WPL6 Elbow in India is Rs. 160 piece for ½” thickness. A 6” size will cost you over Rs. 1000 apiece.

Always Check quality and price of ASME SA420 Grade WPL6 equal/ unequal tee, concentric / eccentric reducer, LR & S/R elbow before buying material from India and China

The ASME SA420 Grade WPL6 is similar to ASTM A420 material. It gets preferred for many piping components like tees, reducers, and elbows because of its suitability for low-temperature applications. Equal tees of this grade connect pipes of the same diameter at 90 degrees. Likewise, an ASME SA420 Grade WPL6 unequal tee connects piping with branches of unequal diameters at a 90-degree angle. Here, at least one tee outlets has a smaller diameter than the other.

The ASME SA420 Grade WPL6 material also gets used to produce reducers. These fittings reduce the pipe size to fit the piping system in different industrial applications. Concentric reducers are preferred to join sections of varying diameters. These fittings reduce the diameter symmetrically. Eccentric reducers decrease the diameter without aligning with both sides. They maintain only one side horizontally and may be used to avoid air accumulation that can cause problems like cavitation.

ASME SA420 elbows are also regular components in process piping to change the direction of the fluid flow. The two main types – long and short radius – differ in length and curvature. While the former has a radius of curvature 1.5 times the nominal diameter, the latter has the same radius as the nominal diameter of the pipe.
