Stainless steel pipe cross

A stainless steel pipe cross is a type of pipe fitting used to connect four pipes at right angles, forming a “+” shape. It allows fluid or gas to flow in four different directions, making it essential in complex piping systems.

Features of Stainless Steel Pipe Cross:

1. Material: Made from high-quality stainless steel (e.g., 304, 316, 316L) for excellent corrosion resistance, durability, and strength.

2. Types:

   • Equal Cross: All four openings are the same size.

   • Reducing Cross: Different pipe sizes can be connected (e.g., two inlets and two outlets of varying diameters).

3. Connection Methods:

   • Welded Cross (Butt-weld, Socket-weld)

   • Threaded Cross (NPT, BSP)

   • Flanged Cross (for high-pressure applications)

4. Applications:

   • Chemical & Petrochemical Industries

   • Food & Beverage Processing (sanitary fittings)

   • Water Treatment & Plumbing Systems

   • Oil & Gas Pipelines

   • HVAC & Industrial Machinery

Advantages:

✔ High corrosion resistance (suitable for harsh environments)
✔ Strong & long-lasting (withstands high pressure/temperature)
✔ Hygienic & easy to clean (ideal for food/pharma industries)
✔ Aesthetic finish (polished options available)
