Detachable Connection: The stub end provides a permanent welded connection to the pipe, while the lap joint flange remains loose, allowing for easy rotation, alignment, and dismantling of the pipe.
Versatility of Materials: Available in materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, copper, and plastic (PVC, CPVC), ensuring adaptability to a variety of applications and environments.
Pressure and Temperature Ratings: Designed to handle specific pressure and temperature conditions based on the material and system requirements.
Long Pattern Stub End: Commonly used in high-pressure applications. It has a longer hub and is used with lap joint flanges, especially in high-temperature and heavy-duty systems.
Short Pattern Stub End: Ideal for low-pressure applications, it has a shorter hub and is used where frequent dismantling is necessary but the system does not face high pressure or temperature.
ANSI/ASME B16.9: Standard for factory-made steel buttwelding fittings, including stub ends.
ASTM A403: Specification for wrought stainless steel pipe fittings for pressure piping.
ASTM A234: Standard for carbon and alloy steel fittings for high-temperature service.
ISO 9001: Ensures the manufacturing quality of stub ends and lap joint fittings.
