ASTM A420 Grade WPL6 Carbon Steel Pipe Fittings are butt-weld pipe fittings manufactured using low-temperature carbon steel. It is used in piping applications in cryogenic and sub-zero environments because of its superior notch toughness and good weldability. It is offered in shapes such as elbows, reducers, tees, caps, and crosses to meet various industry needs. It contains carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and silicon in its structure and possesses better strength and flexibility in high-pressure and low-temperature environments. Due to its strength and elastic nature, WPL6 fittings find applications in industries requiring long-lasting and leakage-proof pipe connections.
One of the major benefits of Carbon Steel A420 Grade WPL6 Pipe Fitting is its superior low-temperature performance. Its toughness at sub-zero temperatures qualifies it for cryogenic services as well as offshore installations. Its superior weldability eases its installation, while its tensile strength provides consistent joint integrity. Its quality resistance to impact and wear lowers maintenance expenses and boosts operations' safety. For industries demanding durable and economical piping systems, WPL6 fittings prove to be an ideal selection.
