Classification of forged high press elbows

　　Forged high press elbow is one of the commom pipe fittings applied in oil&gas industry. An high press elbow provides a change in material-flow direction. This adds pressure losses to the system due to impact, friction and re-acceleration.As product enters the inlet of the elbow, it typically continues moving straight ahead to the first impact zone. The product is then deflected at an angle toward the outlet of the high press elbow. The deflection angle is determined by the high press elbow design, the product’s characteristics, the conveying velocity, and specific load . In many designs, the product will hit one or more secondary impact zones before exiting the high press elbow.

　　Forged high press elbows can be divided into different degrees,45 degree and 90 degree. Forged 90° elbows are manufactured as SR (Short Radius) high press elbows and LR (Long Radius) high press elbows.

　　Forged SR (Short Radius) Elbows

　　These forged high press elbows have a Center-to-Face dimension of 1.0 X diameter. They are typically used in tight areas where clearance is the main issue.

　　Forged LR (Long Radius) Elbows

　　These forged high press elbows have a Center-to-Face dimension of 1.5 X diameter. They are the most common type of forged high press elbow and used when space is available and flow is more critical.
