DTC‑WELDOLET‑SS Series
DTC supplies forged Weldolet fittings manufactured according to ASME B16.11 and MSS SP-97 standards. Available in carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steel, Weldolet provides reinforced butt weld branch connections for high-pressure industrial piping systems.
A Weldolet is a type of forged branch outlet fitting designed to create a reinforced branch connection between a main pipe and a smaller branch pipe. It uses a butt weld connection, allowing the branch pipe to be welded directly to the outlet fitting for a strong and permanent joint.
The specially designed contoured base of the Weldolet matches the curvature of the run pipe, providing excellent reinforcement and reducing stress concentration around the branch connection.
Compared with conventional fabricated branch connections, Weldolets offer improved reliability, easier installation, and better flow performance.
DTC manufactures and supplies forged Weldolet fittings according to ASME B16.11 and MSS SP-97 standards. Available materials include carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and low-temperature steel for various industrial applications.
The forged body provides additional reinforcement around the branch opening, improving strength and fatigue resistance.
The weld connection creates a permanent and reliable joint suitable for critical piping systems.
The contoured base design reduces stress concentration compared with fabricated branch connections.
Weldolets are widely used in demanding applications requiring high reliability and durability.
The outlet design saves space compared with traditional tee fittings.

A Weldolet is a forged branch outlet fitting used to connect a branch pipe to a main pipeline through a butt weld connection.
Weldolet uses a butt weld connection and is suitable for a wider range of pipe sizes, while Sockolet uses a socket weld connection and is mainly used for smaller diameter pipes.
Weldolets are commonly manufactured according to ASME B16.11 and MSS SP-97 standards.
Weldolets provide better reinforcement, improved stress distribution, and easier installation compared with traditional fabricated branch connections.
