See Product Details

FLSmidth Abrasion Resistant Pipeline Fittings are designed to meet the stringent durability demands required when conveying abrasive polymer materials. FLSmidth has designed a diamond shape interior finish that has consistently proven its ability to resist abrasion and dramatically reduce development of fines and streamers.

FLSmidth Cast Aluminum Pipeline Fittings are ideally suited for pneumatic conveying systems handling plastic pelleted materials. Various configurations are available to suit pipeline layout.

Bottom bend - Average fitting after 5 months shows patch from wear.

Materials Typically Handled:

  • PVC
  • Polyethylene
  • Polypropylene
  • Nylon
  • Polyester
  • Vinyl Acetate

Fittings are cast of either 356.0 - T6 or SR319.0 - T51 (75-85 BHN). Internal surfaces have a diamond pattern finish proven to reduce wear and streamers. Standard end styles are plain end for compression type reducing couplings, flanged (150 lb. std.) and Victaulic® groove ends available.

Availability:

Sizes: 3", 4", 5", 6", 8", 10", 12"

(75 mm, 100 mm, 125 mm, 150 mm, 200 mm, 250 mm, 300 mm)

Bend Angles: 90º , 60º , 45º , 30º
