These fittings—typically elbows, tees, reducers, and caps—are manufactured from carbon or alloy steel and designed to provide weldable joints that maintain high mechanical integrity under demanding conditions. The material specification ASTM A234 covers a broad range of grades including A234 WPB, WPC, WP11, WP12, WP22, WP91, and WP911, each tailored for specific temperature and corrosion resistance requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to the operational stress and thermal cycles experienced in power plants, petrochemical units, and processing industries, ASTM A234 fittings must exhibit not only excellent dimensional accuracy and weldability but also high creep strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Selection of the correct grade is crucial: for instance, WP91 (Cr-Mo steel) is suitable for high-temperature services up to ~650 °C, while WPB is appropriate for general service at ambient and moderate temperatures. Each type must conform to complementary piping standards (e.g. ASME B16.9, ASME B16.11) to ensure compatibility and safe integration within complex pipeline systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SRB Steel \u0026 Hardware Supplies","offers":[{"title":"1\" 90 BEND","offer_id":47678362091714,"sku":null,"price":6.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.5\" 45 BEND","offer_id":46033795973314,"sku":null,"price":6.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1.5\" 90 BEND","offer_id":46033796006082,"sku":null,"price":6.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2\" 45 BEND","offer_id":46033796038850,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2\" 90 BEND","offer_id":46033796071618,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 1\/2\" 45 BEND","offer_id":46033796104386,"sku":null,"price":16.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 1\/2\" 90 BEND","offer_id":46033796137154,"sku":null,"price":16.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2\" - 2.5\" REDUCER","offer_id":46033796169922,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/6335\/8914\/files\/plainpipes.jpg?v=1764309584","url":"https:\/\/www.srbindustrialsupplies.com\/products\/astm-a234-carbon-and-alloy-steel-pipe-fittings","provider":"SRB INDUSTRIAL SUPPLIES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
