Asc Engineered Solutions 766258958 Weldolet Carbon Steel

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 766258958 is a standard-weight carbon steel weldolet fitting designed for branch outlet connections in industrial and commercial piping systems. This weldolet creates a reinforced, full-penetration welded branch from a 4-inch run pipe down to a 3-inch by 2.5-inch outlet configuration. At 2.09 pounds, the fitting is machined to standard weight specifications, making it suitable for moderate-pressure piping applications. Installation requires a qualified pipe welder working within applicable code requirements. The weldolet design eliminates the need for a tee fitting and provides a self-reinforced outlet that maintains system integrity at the branch point.

This weldolet is used in process piping, HVAC hydronic systems, industrial plumbing, and mechanical piping where a branch connection must be welded directly to the run pipe. The fitting is appropriate for installations requiring a reducing branch outlet — transitioning from a 4-inch run pipe to a 3-inch by 2.5-inch branch. It is commonly specified on projects following ASME B31.1, B31.3, or similar piping codes where welded fittings are required over threaded or mechanical connections.

Key Features

• Carbon steel construction for durability in industrial and mechanical piping systems
• Standard weight designation suitable for moderate-pressure piping service
• Weld connection type provides full-penetration, reinforced branch outlet
• Reducing configuration: 4-inch run pipe to 3-inch by 2.5-inch branch outlet
• Self-reinforced outlet design eliminates need for additional reinforcing pads

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style weldolet replacement or new-installation fitting for standard-weight carbon steel piping systems requiring a reducing branch outlet connection.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a qualified pipe welder following applicable welding codes and project specifications. De-energize, depressurize, and drain the piping system fully before cutting the branch opening and fitting the weldolet. Proper fit-up and full-penetration welding are required to maintain system pressure integrity and code compliance. Weld inspection per applicable project or code requirements should be completed before returning the system to service.
