Asc Engineered Solutions 766260236 Sockolet 3000 Lb

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 766260236 is a 3000 lb-rated carbon steel sockolet designed for branch outlet connections in high-pressure piping systems. This fitting connects a 2-inch branch line to an 8-inch run pipe and is used in demanding industrial and commercial plumbing applications. The sockolet design accepts socket-weld branch connections, providing a strong, leak-resistant joint. At 1.10 pounds, it is a compact, solid-steel fitting built to handle the mechanical and pressure demands of pressure-rated piping assemblies. Installation is performed by licensed pipefitters and welders working on socket-weld piping systems.

This sockolet is sized for a 36-inch nominal pipe with an 8-inch run and a 2-inch branch outlet. It is suited for use in industrial process piping, commercial mechanical systems, and high-pressure plumbing installations where a code-compliant socket-weld branch connection is required. The 3000 lb pressure class makes it appropriate for medium- to high-pressure service in carbon steel piping networks.

Key Features

• 3000 lb pressure rating for medium- to high-pressure piping service
• Carbon steel construction for strength and durability in demanding environments
• Sockolet configuration provides a reliable socket-weld branch outlet connection
• 2-inch branch outlet on an 8-inch run pipe fitting
• Compact at 1.10 pounds for easy handling during installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation sockolet fitting for 3000 lb-class carbon steel socket-weld piping systems with an 8-inch run and 2-inch branch outlet.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or welder in accordance with applicable codes, including ASME B31.1 or B31.3 as appropriate for the service. The system must be fully depressurized and drained before cutting into any existing piping. Socket-weld connections require proper gap spacing and full-penetration fillet welds per applicable welding procedures. Do not use this fitting in applications that exceed its rated pressure class.
