Citizen Pipe Fittings is one of the leading manufacturer and exporters of Long Radius Bends. The unique design results in minimal resistance to fluid flow. Long Radius Bends are used when there is a need to change the bearing and course through the 180-degree edge. They are easy to install and have enough flexibility to expand and They offer custom and non-custom bends to meet the specific requirements of various industries
Types of Long Radius Bend
Long radius bends are essential components in piping systems, allowing for smooth changes in direction while minimizing pressure drop. They are typically used in industries such as oil and gas, power generation, and chemical processing. Here are some of the common types of long-radius bend :
- Piggable Pipe Bend : Piggable pipe bends are designed to allow the passage of a ‘pig’ - a device used for cleaning or inspecting the pipeline. These bends have a large radius, typically 3 times the diameter of the pipe, to ensure the pig can navigate the bend without getting stuck
- Seamless Pipe Bend : Seamless pipe bends are made from a single piece of pipe that is heated and bent into the desired shape. This type of bend is known for its superior strength and durability, making it ideal for high-pressure applications
- Welded Pipe Bend : Welded pipe bends are made by cutting and bending a pipe, then welding the joints to form the desired angle. This type of bend is commonly used in larger pipe diameters where seamless bending is not feasible
- U Pipe Bend : U pipe bends, also known as 180-degree bends or return bends, are used to make a complete U-turn in the piping direction. They are commonly used in heat exchanger tubes
- Carbon Steel Long Radius Bend : Carbon steel long radius bends are known for their high strength and durability. They are commonly used in industrial applications where high resistance to wear and tear is required
- Nickel Alloy Long Radius Bend : Nickel alloy long radius bends offer excellent corrosion resistance, making them ideal for use in harsh environments such as chemical processing plants and marine applications
