Precision Stainless 2-1/2" Butt-Weld Elbow
This 304 stainless steel elbow joins 2-1/2 inch tubing with a butt-weld connection. The 3-5/8 inch centre-to-end length suits standard process layouts. It meets 3-A sanitary standards for food, beverage and pharmaceutical piping.
Sustained pressure and temperature performance
Rated to 400 psi at 72 degrees F, the fitting holds pressure continuously in clean-in-place cycles. The service range spans -325 degrees to 1500 degrees F, so thermal shock from steam sterilisation does not degrade the 32 RA internal and external finish. Wall thickness of 0.065 inch maintains structural integrity under cycling loads.
Weld preparation and common fit issues
Butt-weld ends require precise alignment and orbital or TIG welding for a crevice-free joint. The 32 RA finish demands clean, oxide-free surfaces; contamination causes rouge or pitting. Misaligned tubes create stress concentrators that leak under 400 psi service. Verify tube OD matches the 2-1/2 inch flange diameter before welding.

Questions about this item
How hot does this 304 stainless elbow get when carrying steam at 1500 Degrees F all day?
The material is rated for continuous service up to 1500 Degrees F, so the elbow itself will reach the fluid temperature; plan insulation and supports accordingly.
What pipe preparation is needed before I can butt-weld this 2-1/2 in elbow into my line?
You need matching 2-1/2 in tube with a .065 in wall, cut square and bevelled for butt welding, plus a TIG or orbital rig capable of stainless.
Will the 32 RA finish on this elbow meet 3A sanitary standards alongside my older 3A-certified fittings?
Yes, the 32 RA ID and OD finish meets 3A requirements, so it can be used directly with existing 3A-certified components.
