“carbon steel bend LR SCH40 90deg, a long radius (LR) 90-degree elbow fitting made from carbon steel, with a schedule 40 (SCH40) wall thickness.
1. Carbon Steel: A type of steel that contains carbon as the primary alloying element. It is commonly used in piping and structural applications due to its strength and durability.
2. Bend/Elbow: A fitting used to change the direction of piping. A 90-degree elbow is used to create a right angle in the piping system.
3. Long Radius (LR): This indicates that the radius of the bend is longer than the diameter of the pipe. For a 90-degree long radius elbow, the centerline radius is typically 1.5 times the nominal pipe diameter. This allows for smoother flow and less turbulence compared to short radius elbows.
4. Schedule 40 (SCH40): This refers to the wall thickness of the pipe. Schedule 40 is a standard that specifies the thickness of the pipe walls, which affects the pressure rating and overall strength of the pipe.
