BONNEY FORGE
In 1943 when Bonney Forge pioneered
the "Shape of Reinforcement” for
branch connections, wha woud have
thought it would fast became a
recognized industry standard. Today,
Bonney Forge Branch Connections offer
complete run pipe reinforcement while
avoiding cracks, filet welds, and sharp
re-entrant: comer reinforcement
tapering atthe sides, thus preventing
abrupt changes in thickness where the
fitting joins the header pipe

Connections -
Your Best Cuoice
Al Bonney Forge forgings are inspected
before leaving the factory, undergoing
three separate quality control s
ems
one for material control, one for
manufacturing and one for design
control, Branch Connection forgings also
undergo frequent checks against mil
documents during the manufacturing
process to assure the highest
compliance with ASME and ASTM
specifications. Plus, comprehensive
record keeping of every fitting from
initial forging ber through forging, heat
treatment, mechining, storage and
shipment means every fing is
traveable to the exact material and
process used in its manufacture
Banney Farge Branch Connections have
been designed to substantially reduce
warehouse inventory. Choose from our

conventional line of fittings thet give a

Pipe into the branch. tt is used worldwide
in refineries, chemical plants and gas

FLEXOLET™ reduces the number of fitting

the revisions ta the MSS specification
This means less warehouse bin locations,
fewer individual inventory items, and less

because of the reasons outlined below
1L wherever welding fittings are required use the Weldolet in eu
of welding tees.
2, Weldalet fittings cost 50% to S0% less than welding tees.
b. The Weldolet fabricates 50% to 90% less than welding tees.
6. The Weldolet allows more flexible fabrication. (Run your pipe -
then weld on fittings.)
4, The Weldolet: maintains full pipe strength in accordance with
ASME B16.9 and other ASME Codes for Pressure Piping,
e. The Weldolet provides full lid flow.
2 Wherever reinforced branches (saddles, reinforcing pads) are
required by internal pressure-temperature conditions,
external forces or both - an integrally reinforced Weldolet should
be used.
a, The Weldolet fitting facilitates fabrication and reduces cost.
{No chipping, less cutting and welding)
b. The Weldolet provides ¢ perfectly contoured internal joint,
cc. The Weldolet fully integrates branch reinforcement and header,
avoids metal to metal lapped surfaces and sharp re-entrant,

Thepipngindustry has retained the theory of area replacement" for
‘adequate and acceptable branch pperenforcement end e' ite besc
improverentin branch pipe construction as taken placer indeed seemed
posse. Area replecerent has been the ani premise cutined by Cae for
‘adequate reinforcement: the Codeshave not considered the shape of such
reinforcement cs evident thet some stapes woud be more efiint than
others, and as a result more replacement area witha poor shape might be
Jess satisfactory than ess area wth n appropriate shape
The basic methods of op type reinforcement outined in Codes are kravn to
have serious dranbacks, namely, tht the geometry creates arees of igh
stress concentration. They have an inherent oeckat the inside edge of the
filet weld as wells points of hiahstess were the pa cns the rn ipa
and wherethe naz intersects the pad aru,
‘These drawbacks ar of increasing concem when igh yield pipes used and
forather pital sence appleatons such as nuclear. On softer materials
suchas Grade Aor Grade 8 pipe the localized aress of high stress tend to
be relieved by localyetting and generally donot adversely affect: the

servicesbily of ur Sweepolet produc ine and due tothe substantial
cust savings gained by using Sveepoets, anyone concared with oical
ping systams should be interested in the use ofthis product
[Research & Devevopment
ver since Bonney Farge first began to question the basic premise of area
‘replacement alone, intensive studes and research have been conducted
bby our engineers. It was soon found that the Pressure Vessel Industry
was ding lkewise Al sgns ofthe Pressure Vessel Research Committee's
workon branch connections, both published and unpublished, point to
the general shape ofthe Sweepolet. Infact, twof the nationally
recogrized pressure vessel and piping codes now contain requirements
‘as t0 “area placement” ination ta the long-standing requirement on
“area repiacement,” Inthe meentime, the Sweepolet wesindependentiy
‘conceived, developed, tested, sold and put into operation onpiplines,
‘atomic reactor vessels, misi aunching systems end rumerous ciical
piping systems.
In general, Bonney Forges pasion is that shape influences the efficiency
of reinforcement as much or mare than area provided by the indisrimi-
‘te aplication of area replacement rues. Tis theorem has appeared in
‘Bonney Forge literature foryearsand has been the subject of many
