Basic Piping Components
▸What is the definition of a Pipe?

▸Pipe is a term used to designate a hollow, tubular body used to


transport any commodity possessing flow characteristics such as
those found in liquids, gases, vapors, liquefied solids, and fine
powders.
5
Basic Piping Components
▸Steel Pipe History

▸Using the natural resources available, early humans probably


fashioned the first pipe from bamboo.
▸Needing to move larger amounts of water, they later hollowed out
logs. Egyptian and Aztec civilizations made pipe from clay.
▸The first metallic pipes were made by the Greeks and Romans
from lead and bronze.
▸Today, Some of the materials include concrete, glass, lead, brass,
copper, plastic, aluminum, cast iron, carbon steel, and steel alloys.

Basic Piping Components
▸What is the definition of a Pipe?

▸Pipe is a term used to designate a hollow, tubular body used to


transport any commodity possessing flow characteristics such as
those found in liquids, gases, vapors, liquefied solids, and fine
powders.

▸There are four different ways to categorize pipes:


a. Material
b. Manufacturing Method
c. Size (NPS, Wall thickness)
d. Method of Joining
7
Basic Piping Components
▸Pipe Manufacturing Methods

▸Seamless Pipe - is formed by piercing a solid, near-molten, steel


rod, called a billet, with a mandrel to produce a pipe that has no
seams or joints
8
Basic Piping Components
▸Pipe Manufacturing Methods

▸Butt-welded Pipe - is formed by feeding hot steel plate through


shapers that will roll it into a hollow circular shape
9
Basic Piping Components
▸Pipe Manufacturing Methods

▸Spiral-welded Pipe – is formed by twisting strips of metal into a


spiral shape, similar to a barber's pole, then welding where the
edges join one another to form a seam.

Basic Piping Components
▸Sizing of Pipe

▸Just as manufacturing methods differ, there are also different


ways to categorize the size of a pipe. Pipe is identified by three
different size categories: nominal pipe size, outside diameter, and
inside diameter
15
Basic Piping Components
▸Wall Thickness
16
Basic Piping Components
▸Sizing of Pipe

▸NPS - Nominal Pipe Size


▸DN – Diametre Nominal
17
Basic Piping Components
▸Method of Joining

▸Butt-weld Connections - made by welding the beveled ends of pipe


together. Beveled ends (BE) indicate that the ends of the pipe are
not cut square, but rather are cut or ground to have a tapered edge.
18
Basic Piping Components
▸Method of Joining

▸Screwed or Threaded Connections - Typically used on pipe 3" and


smaller, threaded connections are generally referred to as screwed
pipe. With tapered grooves cut into the ends of a run of pipe,
screwed pipe and screwed fittings can easily be assembled without
welding or other permanent means of attachment.
19
Basic Piping Components
▸Method of Joining

▸American Standard and API Thread Engagement


20
Basic Piping Components
▸Method of Joining

▸Socket-Weld Connections - the pipe is inserted into the fitting


before welding, unlike a butt-weld connection that has the pipe and
fitting placed end-to-end. Inside the socket-weld fitting is a collar
that prevents the pipe from being inserted too deeply into the fitting
21
Basic Piping Components
▸Method of Joining

▸Forged Steel Socket Weld Fittings


22
Basic Piping Components
▸Fittings

▸Fittings are fabricated pieces of pipe that are used to connections.


These specifications, or specs, as they are make changes of
direction (elbow), branch from a main more commonly called, may
also require pipe smaller pipe (tee), or make a reduction in line size
(reducer)

▸Elbows

▸Of all the fittings, the elbow is the one most often used. Simply
put, the elbow, or ell, is used when a pipe changes direction.

▸ 2 Types of Elbows
90 Deg Ell
45 Deg Ell
29
Basic Piping Components
▸ 90 Deg Elbows

▸Turns at a 90 degrees

▸Ninety degree ells can be classified as one of the following:


long-radius ell
short-radius ell
mitered ell
reducing ell
30
Basic Piping Components
▸ Long Radius 90 Deg Elbows
31
Basic Piping Components
▸ Short Radius 90 Deg Elbows
32

33
Basic Piping Components
▸45 Deg Elbows

▸The obvious difference between the 90° and 45° elbows is the
angle formed by the turn
34
Basic Piping Components
▸Branch Fittings

▸Fittings used for header to branch connections

▸Types:
Welded Tees

35
Basic Piping Components
▸Weld Tees

a pipe

▸2 Types of Welded Tees


Straight Tee
Reducing Tee
36
Basic Piping Components
▸Stub-On

▸The stub-in is not an actual fitting but rather a description of how


the branch connection is created
37
Basic Piping Components
▸Stub-On Reinforcements

▸Reinforcing pad

▸Is a ring cut from steel plate that has a hole in the center equal to
the diameter of the branch connection. It is slipped on to the branch
pipe then welded to both branch and header.

other end manufactured to accept the type of end connections
being used on the branch.

socket-weld pipe together.
Basic Piping Components
▸Miscellaneous Fittings

▸Union - fitting placed within a piping configuration that will allow


the assembly to be disassembled for inspection, repair, or
replacement.
52
Basic Piping Components
▸Miscellaneous Fittings

▸Cap – It is used to seal an open end of pipe.


53
Basic Piping Components
▸Miscellaneous Fittings

▸Plug - The plug, like a cap, is designed to close off the end of a run
of pipe.
54
Basic Piping Components
▸Miscellaneous Fittings

▸Nipple – facilitate the assembly of screwed and socket-weld


fittings, small lengths of pipe called pipe nipples are used between
fittings. (PE, TBE, TOE, MTBE)
55
Basic Piping Components
▸Flanges

▸The flange is a ring-shaped device designed to be used as an


alternative to welding or threading various piping system
components used throughout the piping system.

▸Categorized into Rating, Face, and Type

60
Basic Piping Components
▸Weld Neck Flange – the weld neck flange is the best-designed butt
weld flange available because of its inherent structural value and
ease of assembly.
61
Basic Piping Components
▸Slip-on Flange – Has a low hub that allows the pipe to be inserted
into the flange prior to welding
62
Basic Piping Components
▸Threaded Flange – similar to the slip-on flange, but the bore is
threaded
63
Basic Piping Components
▸Lap-joint Flange – Attachment of the lap-joint flange to the piping
system requires a lap-joint stub end.
64
Basic Piping Components
▸Reducing Flange – is used to make a reduction in the diameter of
the pipe.
65
Basic Piping Components
▸Blind Flange – serves a function similar to that of a plug or cap. It
is used to terminate the end of a piping system.
66
Basic Piping Components
▸Orifice Flange – the function of the orifice flange is to measure the
rate of the flow of the commodity through the piping system
67
Basic Piping Components
▸Bolts – holds mating flanges, nozzles, or valves together
68
Basic Piping Components
▸Gasket – Creates a leak-proof seal between two mating flanges
69
Basic Piping Components
▸Spectacle Blind / Spacer – are similar to a blind flange but

▸Valves

▸Is a device that controls the flow of a fluid.

▸Common Types of Valves


Gate Valve
Ball Valve
Globe Valve
Butterfly Valve
Check Valve
Relief Valve
Needle Valve
71
Basic Piping Components
▸Gate Valve
▸most common type of valve in the industry
▸Opens by lifting a gate out of the route of the fluid
▸Main purpose is a “shut-off valve” meaning it is either fully open
or close
72
Basic Piping Components
▸Gate Valve
73
Basic Piping Components
▸Ball Valve
▸Uses a ball with a hole in it instead of a wedge shaped plug, and
the rotating ball opens or closes the flow
▸Ball valves for manual control are therefore best suited for
stopping and starting flow and moderate throttling
74
Basic Piping Components
▸Ball Valve
75
Basic Piping Components
▸Globe Valve
▸Closing down valves in which the closure member is moved
squarely on and off the seat. It is customary to refer to the closure
member as a disc, irrespective of its shape
▸Globe valves are used for regulating flow in a pipeline instead of
the “all or nothing” function of a gate valve
76
Basic Piping Components
▸Globe Valve
77

79
Basic Piping Components
▸Check Valve
80
Basic Piping Components
▸Relief Valve
▸Also known as safety valve is an industrial valve and fitting

▸This type of angle supply valve is strictly for preventing over-
pressure that could cause damage to the system
81

▸Needle Valve
▸Essentially a variation of the globe valve used for very fine control
of flow
▸Needle valve contain a slender tapered plug as opposed to the
globe valves larger and less accurate disc
