ASTM A234 GR. WP11 Elbow,ASME B16.9 A234 WP11 Pipe Fittings,elbow,tee,reducer,caps

ASTM A234 WP11 pipe fittings are alloy steel butt weld fittings made from 1.25Cr–0.5Mo chromium-molybdenum steel, designed for high-temperature and high-pressure piping systems. Manufactured according to ASME B16.9, WP11 fittings such as elbows, tees, reducers, and caps provide excellent creep resistance, oxidation resistance, and long service life.

We are a professional pipe fittings & flange manufacturer in China.As a experienced A234 WP11 Pipe Fittings manufactuer  in China.We can produce high quality steel pipe fittings, Astm A234 wp11 Pipe fitting,Elbow,Tee,Reducers.

What is ASTM A234 WP11?

ASTM A234 WP11 is a chrome-moly alloy steel grade used for:

  • High-temperature service
  • Pressure piping systems
  • Boilers and heat exchangers

👉 It belongs to ASTM A234 specification for butt weld pipe fittings

A234 WP11 Pipe fittings are produced from A335 P11 seamless pipes,it will connect with A182 F11 Flanges and fittings in the pipeline connection.

Product Range

We manufacture a full range of ASTM A234 WP11 pipe fittings:

Elbows

  • 90° Long Radius (LR)
  • 90° Short Radius (SR)
  • 45° Elbow
  • 180° Return Bend

Material Features

WP11 contains:

  • Chromium (1.00 – 1.50%)
  • Molybdenum (0.44 – 0.65%)

👉 This composition provides:

  • High-temperature strength
  • Creep resistance
  • Oxidation resistance

Manufacturing & Matching Materials

WP11 fittings are typically produced from:

  • ASTM A335 P11 seamless pipes
  • Forging or hot forming processes

👉 System matching:

  • Pipe: ASTM A335 P11
  • Fitting: ASTM A234 WP11
  • Flange: ASTM A182 F11

👉 Ensures consistent performance in high-temperature systems


Classes of WP11

  • Class 1 (CL1) – Normalized
  • Class 2 (CL2) – Normalized
  • Class 3 (CL3) – Normalized & tempered

👉 Higher class = higher strength
