Asc Engineered Solutions 766258966 Weldolet Carbon Steel

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 766258966 is a standard-weight carbon steel Weldolet fitting designed for branch outlet connections on carbon steel piping systems. This fitting provides a full-penetration butt-weld branch connection where a smaller outlet pipe intersects a larger run pipe, reinforcing the branch junction and maintaining system pressure integrity. Weighing 1.92 pounds, it is sized for a 10 inch to 5 inch run pipe with a 2-1/2 inch branch outlet. Weldolets are specified by pipefitters and welders on industrial, commercial, and mechanical piping systems where threaded or socket fittings are not appropriate for the service conditions.

This fitting is suited for carbon steel piping applications in industrial plants, commercial mechanical rooms, and process piping systems requiring a reinforced branch outlet. The standard-weight designation aligns this Weldolet with Schedule 40-equivalent run pipe wall thickness requirements. It is typically installed by certified pipefitters and welders on systems carrying steam, water, gas, or other compatible media where code-compliant butt-weld branch connections are required.

Key Features

• Carbon steel construction for compatibility with standard industrial and commercial piping systems
• Standard-weight designation matches Schedule 40-equivalent run pipe requirements
• Full butt-weld connection type for high-integrity, reinforced branch joints
• 10 inch to 5 inch run pipe size range with a 2-1/2 inch branch outlet
• Compact unit weight of 1.92 pounds for straightforward field handling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style branch outlet fitting for standard-weight carbon steel piping systems with a 10 inch to 5 inch run pipe size and a 2-1/2 inch outlet.

Installation Notes

Installation of Weldolet fittings must be performed by qualified pipefitters and certified welders in accordance with applicable codes such as ASME B31.1 or ASME B31.3. The run pipe must be depressurized, drained, and isolated from the system before cutting the branch opening and fitting the Weldolet. A proper contour saddle cut on the run pipe is required to achieve full seating and root gap before welding. Post-weld inspection per applicable project specifications may be required before returning the line to service.
