Bevel end of pipe
Bevel end of pipe
Bevel end is the most common pipe end type, a bevel end means the end is not perpendicular to the pipe or pipe fitting surface.
Bevel end of pipe refers to a Bevel end formed when the pipe is welded to the pipe and needs to be machined and polished at the interface.
beveled end pipes are joined by welding, the bevel angle will bring a lean gap between two pipes or fittings and help the welding connection sufficiently.
Common Bevel end:
Butt end and corner Bevel end,according to different wall thickness to choose the specific Bevel end form.
Butt bevel end mainly includes: K-shaped, V-shaped, X-shaped, U-shaped, Y-shaped, UV-shaped, VV-shaped, etc., usually V-shaped is selected from 3mm-10mm, U-shaped is selected from 10mm or more.
The corners of the Bevel end are: T type, lap joint, J type and so on.
Common bevel ends and dimensions for pipe welding
1. I-shaped Bevel end
2.V-shaped Bevel end
3. V-shaped Bevel end with cushion plate
4. X-shaped Bevel end
5. T-joint I-shaped Bevel end
6.T-joint unilateral V-shaped Bevel end
7.T-joint symmetrical K--shaped Bevel end
