Sockolet

Sockolet creates a reinforced outlet on the run pipe and receives the branch pipe in a socket for an external fillet weld. This arrangement differs from the butt-weld branch end of a Weldolet and the threaded branch end of a Threadolet. Socket dimensions, assembly gap, pipe wall, material and class must be specified rather than inferred from the name.

Application and duty

Socket-weld branch take-offs with socket dimensions and welding procedure matched to the project
