API 5L X60 Bend, ASME B16.49 3D 5D Hot Induction Pipe Bends

API stands for the American Petroleum Institute. The institute produces several standards, such as API 5L, which covers petroleum transportation piping products, including the API 5L Pipe Bend. The material is high-carbon steel, which is tough enough for outdoor use. The carbon steel API 5L seamless bend can withstand scratches, surface wear and tearing due to its high hardness and strength. The API 5L U Bend is also highly corrosion-resistant compared to ordinary piping materials. This enables the pipe ends of this grade to be used with highly corrosive materials, such as petroleum products.

C&N are a professional manufacturer of pipe fittings and flanges in China.
We can produce the following:

• High-quality API 5L X60 pipe bends
• API X52 5D pipe bends
• Hot induction pipe bends
  Induction bends are available in standard bend angles, such as 90°, 60°, 45° and 30°, or can be custom-made to specific angles. The welding ends of hot induction bends should be prepared in accordance with ASME B16.25. Examples of 3D, 5D, 6D, 7D, 8D and 9D induction bends with a centreline radius are:
• 6″ 5D: centreline R = 5 x 6″ = 30″ = 762.0 mm These hot induction bends are manufactured in accordance with ASME B16.49. Further details required include whether the product is seamless or welded, the material used, whether or not it has a tangent, the quantity required, and whether it undergoes heat treatment. For example, a 90° hot induction bend made from ASTM A234 WPB SMLS R=5D 8″ SCH40 with a tangent length of 150 mm at each end and a beveled end.
  We offer the highest quality butt weld fittings, all of which are thoroughly inspected to ensure complete dimensional compatibility with ASME B16.9 and B16.49 manufacturing standards.

API 5L ASME B16.49 Bend

The API 5L Carbon Steel Welded Bend is made of carbon steel, offering good hardness, strength and corrosion resistance. The bend allowance formula can be used to calculate the length of the bend. The bend allowance (BA) is equal to the angle multiplied by (π/180) multiplied by the radius plus the K-factor multiplied by the thickness.

The API 5L PSL1 Pipe Long Radius Hot Bend has a radius that is twice the outer diameter of the pipe. The bend must undergo testing to determine whether all the required characteristics are present. Destructive testing methods destroy the original piece of metal submitted to the test. However, the non-destructive testing method for the API 5L Short Radius Bend leaves the bend intact after testing. A hydrostatic test ensures that the pipe does not leak through the body or the seam of the weld.

The High Yield CS API 5L 90 Degree Bend is tested using a bending test. During the test, the weld should not open, nor should any cracks occur. The bending formula produces the bend allowance (BA) for any given bend, such as the API 5L PSL2 J pipe bend. BA = angle × (π/180) × (radius + K-factor × thickness).
