The Merit Brass stainless steel 316/316L butt-weld short radius 90-degree elbow, schedule 10, is an unthreaded pipe fitting used to connect two pipes. The 90-degree angle can be used to change the direction of flow and connect two pieces of pipe or pipe fittings with butt-welds, which are beveled openings for welding pipes together. The low-carbon content of this pipe fitting minimizes harmful carbide precipitation during welding, ensuring corrosion resistance. It meets both 316 steel strength standards and 316L extra-low carbon standards. Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness). Merit Brass manufactures pipe nipples following ISO 9001 standards for quality assurance. Family-owned since 1937, the company is based in Cleveland, OH. Merit Brass distributes pipe fittings to the United States and Canada.
