At Solitaire Fittings, we are one of the leading manufacturers, exporters, and suppliers of Stainless Steel 904L Buttweld Fittings. Our high-quality fittings are trusted across industries like oil & gas, petrochemicals, power plants, marine engineering, pharmaceuticals, and more. Known for their exceptional corrosion resistance and strength, 904L Stainless Steel Buttweld Pipe Fittings are widely used in applications that demand durability in harsh environments.
What Are Stainless Steel 904L Buttweld Fittings?
Stainless Steel 904L Buttweld Fittings are piping components made from 904L grade austenitic stainless steel. The 904L alloy contains high amounts of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum, with an addition of copper to improve resistance against strong reducing acids like sulfuric acid.
Buttweld fittings are designed to join two or more pipes by welding, ensuring a stronger and leak-proof connection compared to threaded or socket weld fittings. These fittings come in different shapes like elbows, tees, reducers, bends, caps, and stub ends.
The use of ASTM A403 WP904L fittings and ASTM B366 WP904L Elbows ensures compliance with international standards, making them suitable for high-performance piping systems.
Key Features of 904L Buttweld Fittings
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance: With high chromium, nickel, and molybdenum content, 904L resists pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride environments.
- High Strength and Durability: Designed for demanding conditions in chemical and marine industries.
- Non-Magnetic Properties: 904L remains non-magnetic even after cold working.
- Superior Weldability: Can be welded easily using standard techniques, ensuring leak-proof piping.
- Long Service Life: Resistant to stress corrosion cracking and strong acids like sulfuric, phosphoric, and acetic acid.
Types of Stainless Steel 904L Buttweld Fittings
At Solitaire Fittings, we supply all types of 904L buttweld fittings, manufactured as per ASME B16.9, ASME SA366, DIN 2609, and ASTM standards.
➤ ASME B16.9 Alloy 904L Elbow
Elbows are used to change the direction of piping. We manufacture ASTM B366 WP904L Elbows in 45°, 90°, and 180° bends. As a leading 904L SS Buttweld Elbow Supplier in India, we provide both seamless and welded types.
➤ Stainless Steel 904L Tee
A tee fitting allows one pipeline to branch into two. Our 904L Stainless Steel Tee is available in equal and reducing configurations, ensuring smooth flow distribution.
➤ Reducers
Reducers are used to connect pipes of different diameters. Our range includes concentric and eccentric reducers made from UNS N08904 Seamless Fittings.
➤ DIN 1.4539 Stub End
Stub ends are used with lap joint flanges to allow easy dismantling. Our DIN 1.4539 Stub Ends are manufactured with precision for long life and performance.
➤ ASME SA366 SS 904L Pipe Bend
Pipe bends are used to change the pipeline’s direction over a long radius. As an ASME SA366 SS 904L Pipe Bend Exporter, we deliver high-quality bends for critical applications.
➤ Caps and Crosses
End caps seal the pipeline, while crosses connect four pipes together. Both are available in 904L stainless steel for durability.
