Double Socket 11.25° Bend

Description

The Double Socket 11.25° Bend is a precision pipeline fitting designed for minute changes in direction. It is essential for long-distance transmission lines where engineers must accommodate slight shifts in terrain or bypass minor underground obstructions without introducing excessive hydraulic resistance. Like the rest of our socket-end range, this fitting provides a fast, leak-proof, and flexible connection for ductile iron piping.

Technical Specifications

• Design Type: 11.25° Elbow / Bend

• Pressure Rating: PN10 / PN16

• Body Material: High-strength Ductile Iron (GGG40/50)

• Connection: Socket ends (Push-fit for rapid field installation)

• Sealing: High-grade EPDM/NBR rubber gasket for a leak-proof, flexible seal

• Coating: Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) interior/exterior for extreme corrosion resistance

• Standards: Compatible with standard pipe ODs used in municipal and industrial utility networks

Key Applications

• Precision Alignment: Ideal for adjusting pipeline trajectories to meet exact design specifications in civil engineering projects.

• Reduced Stress: Minimizes hydraulic stress and wear in long-run transmission mains by providing a nearly straight-line path.

• Infrastructure Projects: Essential for site maintenance and utility layouts in Mesaieed and Ras Laffan where high-pressure integrity is required.

• Pipeline Flexibility: Allows for minor adjustments in trench routing without requiring complex custom pipe fabrication.
