Detailed Introduction

The carbon steel lap joint stub ends we produce use carbon steel materials such as 20#, A234 WPB, Q235B, 16Mn, WPL6, and comply with GB/T12459, ASME B16.9, MSS SP43 standards. The products are divided into four processes: long pattern LP, short pattern SP, pipe-made precision-turned, and plate-made rolled, covering DN15–DN3000. One end has a standard butt-weld bevel for welding to carbon steel pipelines, and the other end has a flat lap face to mate with a loose flange, allowing 360° rotational alignment, solving on-site construction problems such as bolt hole misalignment, fixed equipment nozzles, and connection in confined spaces. Carbon steel material has good weldability, stable strength, and low cost, suitable for pipelines conveying conventional media such as water, gas, steam, ordinary oil products, and fuel gas. We routinely stock DN15–DN600 stamped and pipe-made specifications, and can ship within 24–48 hours after payment confirmation. We support non-standard customization and export packaging.

PackagingCarbon steel lap joint stub ends use engineering-grade + foreign trade-grade dual protective packaging, taking into account both domestic transportation wear and damage prevention and sea freight rust and salt spray prevention needs. The bevel and lap joint sealing surface of each single product are covered with protective film to prevent collisions, scratches, wear, and deformation; small specifications are uniformly packed into thickened hard cardboard boxes with built-in moisture-proof desiccant to eliminate oxidation and rusting in humid environments. Medium and large diameter and plate-made large diameter products are individually wrapped with waterproof stretch film and pearl cotton, with overall reinforced protection to avoid deformation and paint loss from friction during transportation bumps. All boxed products are externally wrapped with waterproof stretch film for fully enclosed sealing, preventing dust, water, moisture, and loosening. Large-volume full-container shipments are uniformly stacked on fumigation-free solid wood pallets and secured and shaped with high-strength strapping, with a stable structure that is not easy to shift, fully complying with customs export inspection standards

Applications

  • Municipal water supply and drainage and sewage main pipe projects, used with loose flanges for segmented pipeline connection and maintenance disassembly
  • Chemical park auxiliary pipe networks, refinery branch pipelines, power plant cooling circulation pipelines, and other working conditions without strongly corrosive media
  • Flange connection points of factory compressed air pipe networks, steam pipelines, and ordinary oil product transportation pipelines
  • Connection points requiring flange alignment, such as storage tank inlet and outlet, ordinary boiler pipelines, and electromechanical equipment connections
  • Basic pipeline network project bulk procurement for foreign trade, used for water, gas, and gas pipeline engineering in the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia, and other regions

Overview

The carbon steel lap joint stub end is a lap joint sealing pipe fitting in a loose flange connection system. One end is a butt weld bevel, welded to the carbon steel main pipeline; the other end is formed into a flat lap joint face by hot pressing or finish turning, used in conjunction with a loose flange. During installation, the flange can rotate 360°, facilitating bolt hole alignment, suitable for fixed equipment nozzles, construction in confined spaces, and pipeline connections requiring disassembly and maintenance. We provide four processes: long pattern LP, short pattern SP, seamless pipe finish turned, and plate rolled and welded, covering DN15–DN3000. Carbon steel material has good weldability, stable strength, and low cost, suitable for normal temperature and medium-low pressure pipelines conveying water, gas, steam, ordinary oil products, gas, and other non-highly corrosive media.

Key Features

The main advantages of the carbon steel lap joint stub end are high cost-effectiveness, sufficient stock, and convenient welding. Carbon steel material costs less than stainless steel and duplex steel, suitable for bulk centralized procurement and foreign trade volume sales. One end of the product is a butt weld bevel welded to the pipeline, and the other end is a lap joint face matched with a loose flange, capable of 360° rotational alignment, reducing on-site bolt hole misalignment and pipeline nozzle docking difficulties. Long pattern LP is suitable for high temperature and medium-high pressure main pipelines, short pattern SP is suitable for low pressure auxiliary pipe networks and municipal civil pipelines. For conventional specifications DN15–DN600, we keep stock regularly, and can ship within 24–48 hours after payment confirmation. For non-standard diameters, thickened lap joints, special lengths, low temperature materials, and other requirements, please contact us for customization.

Applications

The carbon steel lap joint stub end is used for pipeline systems at normal temperature, medium temperature, medium-low pressure, and without highly corrosive media. Municipal fields include urban water supply and drainage, sewage main pipes, residential community pipe networks, park heating transmission, and low pressure gas branch pipes. Industrial fields include chemical plant auxiliary pipe networks, refinery branch pipelines, power plant cooling circulation pipelines, plant compressed air pipe networks, and ordinary oil and gas transmission pipelines. Equipment matching includes storage tank inlet and outlet, boiler ordinary pipelines, and electromechanical equipment connecting pipes. Extra-large diameter main pipe networks can adopt the plate rolled and welded process. Low temperature carbon steel models can be used for outdoor pipe networks in cold northern regions. The product is not suitable for strongly acidic, strongly alkaline, high salt spray, and highly corrosive environments.

FAQ

What working conditions are carbon steel lap joint stub ends suitable for?

Suitable for normal-temperature, medium-temperature, medium-low-pressure industrial and municipal pipelines conveying water, air, steam, ordinary oil products, gas, and other media without strong corrosion. Not suitable for strongly acidic, strongly alkaline, or high-salt-spray highly corrosive environments.

How to choose between long-type LP and short-type SP lap joint stub ends?

Long-type LP is suitable for high-temperature, medium-high-pressure main pipelines, and can isolate the welding heat zone to protect the sealing surface. Short-type SP is cost-effective and suitable for low-pressure auxiliary pipe networks and municipal civil pipelines. For specific selection, please contact us to confirm.

What process is used for DN600 and above large-diameter carbon steel lap joint stub ends?

Products with large diameters of DN600 and above use a plate-rolled manufacturing process, and can cover up to DN3000. For specific process parameters and delivery time, please contact us to confirm.

Can carbon steel lap joint stub ends be paired with carbon steel loose flanges?

Yes. Carbon steel lap joint stub ends are used together with carbon steel loose flanges to form an all-carbon-steel economical connection system, reducing project costs.
