This fitting is designed to join two sections of pipe in high-pressure piping systems where a permanent, full-penetration weld connection is required. Rated at Class 3000, it is built to handle demanding liquid and gas service up to 3000 psi. This coupling is a standard fitting used by licensed pipefitters and welding professionals on commercial and industrial piping installations. Each purchase includes a package of 5 couplings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket weld coupling is suited for use in high-pressure industrial and commercial piping systems carrying liquids or gases. Its Class 3000 pressure rating makes it appropriate for steam, hydraulic, and process piping applications where standard threaded fittings are not acceptable. The 3\/8 inch size fits standard 3\/8 inch schedule pipe. Installation requires socket weld preparation and qualified welding procedures per applicable codes. This fitting ships in a package quantity of 5.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 3000 pressure rating handles liquid and gas service up to 3000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eForged carbon steel construction for strength and durability in high-pressure service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSocket weld end connections provide a permanent, full-penetration weld joint\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish for corrosion resistance during storage and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch fitting size for standard 3\/8 inch schedule pipe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 5 couplings per order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard socket weld fitting for 3\/8 inch Class 3000 piping systems in industrial and commercial applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation of socket weld fittings must be performed by a qualified pipefitter or welder in accordance with ASME B31.1, ASME B31.3, or the applicable piping code for the system. Isolate and depressurize the piping system completely and allow it to cool before beginning any fitting work. Socket weld joints require proper gap spacing between the pipe end and the socket shoulder prior to welding to allow for thermal expansion. Do not substitute socket weld fittings in systems that require removable or union-type connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Coupling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connections\u003c\/strong\u003e: Socket Weld\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Forged Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassification\u003c\/strong\u003e: Class 3000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3000 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175303\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: -12156-2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51714783707442,"sku":"-12156-2","price":63.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e6475051fcd29e9ab107928dcbe1286d.jpg?v=1788506194","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-12156-2-socket-weld-coupling-3-8-in-class-3000","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
