Designed for high-performance applications, this cross fitting is crafted from top-quality 316 stainless steel, providing you with superior resistance to corrosion and durability. Designed to connect four pipes in a T-configuration, this fitting is great for complex piping networks requiring reliable and secure junctions.

What Is the 2″ 3000 NPT Threaded Cross 316 X 316 Stainless Steel?

This is an vital component for constructing complex and durable pipe systems. This cross fitting is designed to connect four pipes at a junction, allowing for the creation of intricate piping networks. It is especially useful in systems where multiple pathways intersect, enabling efficient multi-directional flow and branching.

A threaded cross fitting like this one also enables the integration of additional pipes. The 2″ diameter and NPT (National Pipe Thread) connections are ideal for high-pressure and corrosive environments, making it suitable for industrial, chemical, and marine applications.

The fitting is connected by precision-cut threads, which provide a secure, leak-proof seal that simplifies the installation process. Installation is achieved by threading the fitting onto the pipes, ensuring a tight fit without the need for additional sealing compounds or gaskets. Use appropriate wrenches or tools to tighten the fitting, but avoid overtightening, which can damage the threads or the fitting.

Key Features:

• 2-Inch Diameter: Provides a substantial connection size for various industrial and commercial piping needs.
• 316 Stainless Steel: Offers outstanding resistance to corrosion and durability, ideal for challenging environments.
• 3000 psi Pressure Rating: Designed to handle high-pressure conditions, maintaining integrity and performance under demanding circumstances.
• National Pipe Tapered (NPT) Threaded Connection: Features precision-cut NPT threads for a secure and leak-proof connection, facilitating easy installation and maintenance.
  • What is NPT? NPT is a standard for threaded pipe fittings used primarily in the United States. NPT threads are tapered, meaning that the diameter of the threads decreases along the length of the pipe. This tapering helps create a tight seal as the male and female threads are screwed together. The tapered design of NPT threads helps provide a seal by deforming the threads slightly, which can be further enhanced with thread sealant tape or pipe dope to prevent leaks. NPT threading is defined by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and is detailed in standards such as ANSI/ASME B1.20.1. It specifies the dimensions and tolerances for the threads. NPT threads are characterized by a thread angle of 60 degrees and a specific pitch, which is the distance between threads. The standard ensures compatibility and proper fitting across different manufacturers.
• Cross Configuration: Connects four pipes in a T-shaped (or X-shaped) arrangement, allowing for flexible piping setups and multi-directional flow.

Common Applications:

• Industrial Pipelines: Important for creating junctions in high-pressure pipelines where corrosion resistance and strength are required.
• Chemical Processing: Ideal for applications involving corrosive substances, thanks to its 316 stainless steel construction.
• Marine and Offshore: Designed for use in marine environments where exposure to saltwater and other corrosive elements is a concern.
• Construction and Maintenance: Useful in various construction projects and maintenance tasks that require reliable and durable pipe fittings.

The 2″ Threaded Cross 316 X 316 3000 Stainless Steel pipe fitting is a robust and versatile component designed for demanding pipe applications. Its 316 stainless steel construction, high-pressure rating, and threading ensure a secure, leak-proof connection and exceptional durability. Whether you’re working in industrial, chemical, or marine environments, this fitting provides the reliability and strength you need to maintain an efficient and effective piping system.
