Anvil 0362060204 Black Steel Coupling 1/4 in Socket Weld

Product Description

The ANVIL 0362060204 is a forged carbon steel socket weld coupling finished in black, rated for Class 3000 service. Designed for high-pressure piping applications, this 1/4 inch coupling joins two pipe sections using socket weld end connections, providing a strong, leak-resistant joint suited to demanding liquid and gas systems. At a pressure rating of 3000 psi, it meets the requirements of high-pressure industrial and commercial piping. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in process piping, steam systems, and hydraulic lines where threaded connections are not preferred.

This coupling is suited for 1/4 inch socket weld piping installations in industrial, commercial, and heavy mechanical applications. The Class 3000 pressure rating makes it appropriate for high-pressure gas and liquid service. Its compact forged construction is common in tight-space installations where a reliable, permanent joint is required. Pipefitters and licensed mechanical contractors typically select socket weld fittings for small-bore, high-pressure piping runs in refineries, plants, and commercial mechanical rooms.

Key Features

• Forged carbon steel construction for high-strength, high-pressure service
• Class 3000 pressure rating with a 3000 psi liquid and gas pressure rating
• Socket weld end connections for a permanent, leak-resistant joint
• Black finish for corrosion identification and standard industrial use
• 1/4 inch fitting size for small-bore piping applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for 1/4 inch socket weld piping systems rated to Class 3000 service in liquid and gas applications.

Installation Notes

Installation of socket weld fittings is performed by licensed pipefitters or plumbers following applicable codes such as ASME B31.3 for process piping. Shut down and depressurize the piping system fully before cutting, fitting, or welding. Socket weld connections require fillet welding around the fitting hub and should only be performed by a qualified welder. Do not use socket weld fittings as a temporary connection or with incompatible pipe materials.
