ASME B16.49 Hot Induction Pipe Bends
ASME B16.49 Hot Induction Pipe Bends
There are different levels of induction bending depending on the radius of the bend. The 5d Hot Induction Bend means that the bends has been bent to have a radius of 5 times the outer diameter of the pipe. This is useful in systems where the curvature has to be smooth and the change of direction has to take place gradually.
