Value Collection -12199-8 Black Union 2 in Socket Weld Class 3000

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -12199-8 is a 2-inch black union fitting manufactured from forged carbon steel with a black finish. Unions allow piping systems to be disconnected and reconnected without cutting or threading the line, making them a standard component in maintenance-accessible runs. This fitting is rated Class 3000 with a liquid and gas pressure rating of 3000 psi, and it uses socket weld end connections. It is suited for high-pressure piping applications in industrial and commercial environments where reliable, repeated service access is required. Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters or plumbers working on carbon steel piping systems.

This union is designed for use in socket weld piping assemblies operating at high pressure. Common applications include process piping, steam lines, hydraulic lines, and other systems where forged carbon steel fittings are specified. The Class 3000 pressure rating makes it appropriate for demanding service conditions in industrial plants, refineries, and commercial mechanical rooms. The black finish is standard for carbon steel fittings in these environments.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation component for 2-inch socket weld carbon steel piping systems rated at Class 3000 service conditions.

Installation Notes

Socket weld unions are installed by licensed pipefitters following applicable codes such as ASME B31.3 for process piping or ASME B31.1 for power piping. Depressurize and isolate the piping system completely before disassembly or fitting installation. Socket weld joints require proper fit-up and certified welding procedures. Do not use this fitting beyond its rated pressure class.
