Stainless Steel (SS) Long Stub Bends & Lap Joint Stub Ends
At Gayatri Pipe Fittings, we’re an experienced manufacturer of stainless steel long stub bends suited for use in piping with lap joint flanges. Manufactured from grade stainless steel, these stub ends provide maximum flow while providing excellent corrosion resistance.
A stainless steel long stub bend is a pipe fitting that is specially designed to give a smooth path of change in direction in a stainless steel pipeline, reducing pressure loss without impacting the flow of the system. Long stub bends are typically used in pharmaceutical, food, dairy, and chemical processing plants, where there is a need to provide clean points of change between pipelines, especially where space is limited or flow is critical.
Stainless steel long stub bends can be manufactured from high quality SS 304, SS 316L and similar stainless steel materials. Long stub bends are corrosion resistant, chemical resistant and durable for hygienic installations, where weld locations, angles and pipe routings often need to be changed. The long stub bend design limits turbulence and wear on pipe and fittings and accommodates CIP/SIP processes in respect to sterility in the facility.
Trusted SS Long Stub Bend in India
We can deliver stainless steel long stub bends with various diameters, thicknesses and degrees or angles of bend to match individual system layouts. We provide 100% 3D spool modelling through our plant in Ahmedabad, India, including all types of polishing and finishing, along with packaging and delivery across India.
Although stainless steel long stub bends may be used for new installations, they may also serve as a direct replacement during routine maintenance. Long stub bends provide secure fitment and leak-proof joints with a determined flow direction. Our stub bends are commonly used where flow characteristics are important as well as ease of cleaning with clean-in-place options.
