Asc Engineered Solutions 766260087 Sockolet 1-1/2x3/4 3000lb

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 766260087 is a carbon steel sockolet fitting designed for branch connections in high-pressure piping systems. With a run size of 1-1/2 inches and a branch outlet of 3/4 inch, this fitting accepts socket-weld connections and is rated to 3000 pounds. Sockolets are used when a reinforced branch outlet is required directly on a main pipe run, eliminating the need for a separate reinforcing pad. Licensed pipefitters and plumbers install this type of fitting in industrial, commercial, and mechanical piping systems where socket-weld construction is specified.

This sockolet is suited for high-pressure piping applications including steam lines, process piping, and industrial fluid distribution systems. The 3000 lb pressure class makes it appropriate for demanding service conditions found in commercial mechanical rooms and industrial plant piping. The 1-1/2 inch by 3/4 inch configuration addresses common reducing branch scenarios in schedule pipe systems requiring socket-weld terminations.

Key Features

• Carbon steel construction for strength and durability in high-pressure piping service
• 3000 lb pressure class rating suitable for demanding industrial and commercial applications
• 1-1/2 inch run by 3/4 inch branch outlet for reducing socket-weld branch connections
• Sockolet design provides integral reinforcement at the branch connection point
• Socket-weld end preparation for clean, secure pipe-to-fitting joining

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard socket-weld branch fitting for 3000 lb class carbon steel piping systems requiring a 1-1/2 inch run by 3/4 inch reducing branch outlet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or plumber in accordance with applicable mechanical and piping codes. De-pressurize and isolate the piping system completely before cutting the branch opening or beginning any welding work. Socket-weld joints require proper gap spacing before welding per applicable weld procedure specifications. Post-weld inspection requirements should follow the project specification and applicable code for the service type.
