Threaded Unions

Threaded Unions Fitting

Threaded Unions are used in different industries applications like chemical processing, oil refineries, petrochemical, and many other industries. Today we are talking about steel threaded unions( high pressure), they refer to forged pipe fittings, which are the most common pipe fittings in industry and life.

1. What is Threaded Union?

The threaded unions consist of three parts — a nut, a female end, and a male end. The female threaded union fitting has threads on the inside, while the threads are on the outside of the male threaded fitting. To make the threaded union fitting work properly, both male and female ends are secured together with nuts.

Threaded piping is commonly used in low-cost, noncritical applications such as domestic water, fire protection, and industrial cooling water systems.
Threaded fittings are normally made of cast gray or malleable iron, cast brass or bronze, or forged alloy and carbon Union.
They are available in three pressure ratings: Class 2000, 3000, and 6000.

6. Union VS Coupling

A Threaded Pipe union is similar to a coupling, allowing the convenient future disconnection of pipes for maintenance or fixture replacement, but a coupling requires additional, lengthy work to disconnect and remove from the piping system.

Threaded Unions and Reducing Unions make easy connection and disconnection, multiple times whenever we need.
