If you need new flange gaskets, you may be wondering where you can turn. The average person is generally not familiar with the different weld fittings and pipe fittings that are available to them. These are integral parts of the piping system — and becoming familiar with all aspects of titanium pipe fittings can help […]
Since the very first hydrocarbon pipelines were made from bamboo in China around 500 BC, the pipeline industry has steadily evolved. Today, many industries use carbon steel pipe fittings. It all depends on the industrial project that is being undertaken. Top manufacturers of forged steel unions and fittings have the forged products needed that are […]
The right pressure vessel openings are necessary to ensure safety and operational ease. Installing a piping system for liquid and gas flow means following the regulations to a “T” — and of course, using pressure vessel openings that make the job easier. High-grade pressure vessel openings help to ensure easy connections and insertion of equipment […]
Time is money. That saying is never any truer than when it is applied to installing a piping system for liquid and gas flow. The right industrial long weld neck flanges may seem like a small part of the “time is money” equation. That is, until they fail. It’s vital to obtain the highest quality […]
There are a few things that will ensure success when installing a piping system. Using high-quality parts likes thredolets from a well-known distributor that is committed to quality, the planning of the piping system, and of course, the skill set of the pipe fitters. If one part of the recipe for success is missing, you […]
Pipe fitting systems can be complicated, especially if you have never dealt with pipe fitting systems in the past. There are often strange terminologies and different purposes for materials that can become confusing for those looking for supplies from a flange distributor. It may prove to be helpful to become familiar with the most used […]
Piping systems have been vital to a functioning of society for over 150 years. In the United States, it’s believed that the first oil pipeline was built in 1862 in Pennsylvania. One helpful component of installing a piping system is forged steel fittings. There are different types of them that help to blank off pipe […]
Flanges are used to connect piping systems and maintain an efficient flow of gas and liquid. However, like most components, they can break down and cause system failures. From ill-fitting gaskets to corrosion on weld necks, the following are some of the common issues you may encounter. 1. Excessive Load and Stress Shocks Depending on […]
Fittings have become some of the most essential components in pipe installations across several major industries, including oil, gas, water, and auto. The fittings that you choose are just as important as the pipes they help join, regardless of the machine part you are assembling or repairing. That is why your engineers and technicians should […]
The first hydrocarbon piping systems in history originated in China around 500 BC. The materials and practices have evolved drastically over the millennia, but one thing has stayed the same. When it comes to piping systems, a certain level of expertise that is required. From hydrocarbon piping systems to marine oilfield piping systems, installing a […]
