What Is ASTM A234 WP5?

ASTM A234 is a standard specification covering wrought carbon steel and alloy steel pipe fittings for moderate and high-temperature service.
WP5 is a chromium-molybdenum alloy steel grade containing approximately 5% chromium and 0.5% molybdenum, designed for elevated temperature pressure applications.

ASTM A234 WP5 elbow fittings are supplied in heat-treated condition to meet strict mechanical and hardness requirements.
