Steel Pipe Unions Fittings, Easy Connection
Steel pipe unions consist of three parts that a nut, a female end and a male end. There are two types that socket weld union and threaded ( screwed ) union. Material for supply range: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Alloy Steel, Duplex Steel and Cooper Nickel.
Description
Steel unions are pipe fittings that allow for the connection and disconnection of pipes without the need for extensive dismantling of the piping system.Any kind of small diameter piping connections requiring a positive seal and easy assembly as well as disassembly are made with the help of pipe union. In other words, the pipe unions can disjoint two pipes very easily. They are widely demanded in the pipe fitting market.
Materials used:
Stainless steel
Cast iron
Aluminum
Nickel
Copper
Brass
Bronze
Alloy
Plastic
Rubber etc.
Three parts of pipe union:
A pipe union consists of three parts – a nut, a female end and a male end. To make an effectively working pipe fitting, both the male and female ends are sealed together with the help of nuts. A female threaded fitting has threads on the inside, while in the male-threaded fitting, the threads are on the outside. As the pairing ends of the union can be interchanged, these pipe fittings can be easily changed in a short span of time.
A nut
A female end
A male end
With the joining of the female and male ends, the nuts are used to provide the necessary pressure to seal the joint.
The parts of the pipe union are normally locked together by at least one radial screw or nut with sized cross section. When severe pulling stress is applied onto the pipe union from the outside, the locking screw breaks and removes the two parts of the union, which in turn separates together with the pipes to which they are attached. Under normal conditions elastically stressed sealing objects ensure maintenance of watertightness between the union parts.
Types of pipe unions:
There are two basic types of pipe unions:
Ground Joint Union : A ground joint union comprises of an angle that is cut into the union to make the two sections meet. It increases the surface area at the joint allowing seating properly.
Flange Union: It is a pair of flanges that holds two pipes together by screwing them on the ends of the pipes after which they are welded or bolted together. This process in plumbing is done to hold both the pipes together.
The difference between the two is that the former consists of three pieces while the latter two pieces.
Applications of pipe unions:
Pipe unions are used in various municipal and industrial applications like as follows:
Fire protection
Process piping system
Water and wastewater etc.

Uses of packaging in the steel industry
Protective function
- Prevent steel products from physical damage, such as collision, scratching and extrusion, during transport, storage and handling to avoid affecting the quality and appearance of the products.
- Insulate from external environmental factors, such as humid air, rain, dust, etc., to reduce the risk of rust and corrosion of steel and ensure the performance and service life of the products.
Wooden box packaging
- Use: Mainly used to protect some irregular shape, easy to damage or high requirements for packaging of steel products, such as precision parts and components.
- Specific description: the wooden box is made of thick wooden boards, and cushioning materials, such as foam, air cushion, etc., may be added inside to reduce the impact of vibration and collision on the product.
Anti-rust paper packaging
- Purpose: To prevent rust and corrosion of steel products, especially suitable for storage or transportation in a humid environment.
- Specific description: anti-rust paper usually contains rust inhibitors, can be in contact with the metal surface to form a protective film, blocking the erosion of moisture and oxygen.
Plastic film packaging
- Purpose: To provide basic protection against dust and moisture, commonly used for small steel products.
- Specific description: plastic film has a certain degree of flexibility and sealing, can be tightly wrapped in the product surface, effectively isolate the external environment.
Pallet packaging
- Purpose: To facilitate the stacking and handling of steel products, and improve logistics efficiency.
- Specific description: The pallet is usually made of wood or plastic, the steel products are placed on the pallet, and then the forklift and other tools can be used for handling and loading and unloading.
Factory container packing
- Purpose: It is used for mass transportation of iron and steel products, to protect the products and improve the utilization rate of transportation space.
- Specific description: Containers have a strong structure and good sealing, and can adapt to long-distance transportation and the conversion of multiple modes of transportation.
Anti-rust oil coating packaging
- Purpose: To form a layer of antirust oil film on the surface of steel and enhance the antirust ability.
- Specific description: evenly cover the steel surface with anti-rust oil by brushing or soaking to form a durable protective layer.
Metal Corner Protection Packaging
- Purpose: To protect the corners and edges of steel products from damage during handling and transportation.
- Specific description: Metal corner guards are usually installed on the corners of products, using welding, bolting and other methods to increase the strength and impact resistance of the corners.
Baling Steel's packaging will surely convey to you our dedication to quality. We understand the importance of packaging to the quality of steel products and transportation safety, so we strive for excellence in the selection of packaging materials, so that you do not have to worry about the loss of transportation, and fully feel our professionalism and dedication!
