GO Carbon Steel Reducing Coupling 3000lb Socket Weld A105 ASME B16.11

A Socket Weld is a pipe attachment detail in which a pipe is inserted into a recessed area of a Valve, fitting or flange. In contrast to buttweld fittings, Socket Weld fittings are mainly used for small pipe diameters (Small Bore Piping); generally for piping whose nominal diameter is NPS 2 or smaller.

A coupling (or coupler / socket) (used in piping or plumbing) is a very short length of pipe or tube, with a socket at one or both ends that allows two pipes or tubes to be joined (threaded BSP or NPT), welded (socket weld steel or stainless steel), brazed or soldered (copper, brass etc.) together.
