Product Details
The Merit 316 SS Schedule 10 Type A stub end MSS 5 butt-weld female fitting is designed for pipe connections using the butt welding method, which requires the fitting to have the same wall thickness and diameter as the pipe being connected. Both the pipe and the fitting are beveled, allowing the ends to butt together and form a groove to hold the weld filler. This fitting is constructed from 316 stainless steel and is Schedule 10 in thickness. Butt weld fittings offer advantages such as lower cost, less maintenance, and greater strength compared to threaded joints. This product complies with MSS SP-43 standards for stub end fittings and includes a warranty as specified by Merit. Dimensions and specifications are provided per standard Schedule 10 pipe dimensions to ensure proper fit and performance.
