square pipe bend

To alter the course of a pipeline or to link two pipes of varying widths, a square pipe bend is employed. Such bends come in multiple materials, including stainless steel, alloy steel, carbon steel, duplex steels, and nickel alloys, as well as different sizing and measurements. Industries like oil and gas, construction, petrochemical, chemical-refining, and powergeneration all use square pipe bends to their advantage.

What distinguishes different kinds of square pipe bends is their radius – long radius bends have a 1.5 times the diameter of the pipe, while short radius bends have a radius that corresponds to the diameter. The fabrication process can involve hot forming, cold forming, and welding.

For those seeking to achieve a tailored shape in their pipes, they have two options – hot and cold forming. Hot forming requires that the pipe is heated to an extreme degree before it can be manipulated according to its desired bend, while cold forming allows for the bending of the pipe without pre-heating it. To effect the fusion of two pipes, the welding process brings them together while sealing their joint.

In applications such as oil and gas pipelines, chemical plants, power plants, and construction projects, square pipe bends are a key factor in their operation. These bends give the flexibility to redirect the pipeline while also connecting pipes of different sizes. Square pipe bends come in various sizes and thicknesses to accommodate any project’s unique needs.
