180° SR Elbow Stainless Steel Fittings ASTM A403 B16.9 For Piping Systems

STAINLESS STEEL FITTINGS 180° SR ELBOW ASTM A403 B16.9 USED FOR PIPING SYSTEMS

A 180° SR Elbow (Short Radius) is primarily used to redirect fluid flow by 180 degrees in tight spaces where a compact piping layout is required.

Material Equivalent of ASTM A403 WP321/321H

ASTM A403 WP321 Stainless Steel Butt Weld Elbow Specification

Applications:

Heat Exchangers: Used to redirect flow in serpentine heat exchanger designs.
Hydronic Systems: Helps create loops in heating or cooling systems.
Industrial Piping: Used to save space by avoiding additional routing for reverse flow.
Plumbing Systems: Utilized in drainage or water supply systems where a reverse bend is necessary.

Size : 1/2"NB TO 48"NB IN

Schedule : SCH20, SCH30, SCH40, STD, SCH80, XS, SCH60, SCH80, SCH120, SCH140, SCH160, XXS

Type : Seamless / ERW / Welded / Fabricated

• A hydronic heating system uses a 180° SR elbow to loop heated water back to the boiler in a basement with limited vertical space.
• A chemical processing plant installs SR elbows to route pipes around large reactors without expanding the facility.
• In shipbuilding, these elbows fit piping into narrow corridors between bulkheads and machinery.

• Space Savings: Radius = 1× pipe diameter (e.g., 2-inch pipe → 2-inch radius).
• Cost-Effective: Often cheaper than LR elbows due to less material.
• Efficiency in Tight Spots: Enables complex routing in congested areas.
