Socket Weld Olet is a forged branch outlet fitting designed to connect a smaller-diameter branch pipe to a main pipe through a socket weld connection. Manufactured in accordance with MSS SP-97, it provides a compact branch connection for industrial piping systems. The socket end dimensions are specified in accordance with applicable ASME B16.11 requirements.
Available in carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel grades, Socket Weld Olets can be supplied in different sizes and pressure classes to meet project requirements. Material grades, dimensions, and specifications can be customized according to technical drawings and applicable standards for oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, and other industrial piping applications.
