Standard B16e-1939, American Standard for Steel Pipe Flanges and Flanged Fittings. The latter also contains dimensions for steel welding, neck flanges for pressures up to 2500 psi, and slip-on welding flanges for 150 and 300 psi. Table 9 gives these dimensions for welding-neck and. slip-on welding flanges suitable for 150 psi gage pressure.
Socket-welding fittings also are commercially available. These fittings have a machined recess for inserting the pipe which is attached by a fillet weld between the pipe wall and socket end. Use of socketswelding fittings generally is restricted to nominal pipe sizes 3 in. and smaller in which range commercial fittings are available. This type of fitting has

^Dimensions H and J correspond to the outside and inside diameters of pipe as given in A S.A. B3B.10* 1939. Schedule 40.
These diameters .are identical with the diameters of what was formerly designated as Standard Weight Pipe of the corresponding sizes.'

American Standards Association to unify heretofore divergent dimensions for the same type welding fittings as produced by different manufacturers. Standard dimensions for steel butt-welding elbows, tees, caps, and lappedjoint stub ends are given in .Table 8. Dimensions for eccentric and con centric reducers, and 180-deg return bends are not shown in Table 8 but are included in the American Standard. Larger sizes also are available . in some types of fittings. The welding bevel which is a straight 37 J4-deg V for wall thickness % in. and below, and a U-bevel for thicknesses heavier than % in., conforms to the recommended'practice of A.S.A.

All dimensions are given in inches. Dimension C is 1 times the nominal pipe thickness', minimum, but not less than % in. Reducing sizes have same center to bottom of socket dimension as the largest size of reducing fitting.
rapid acceptance owing to its ease of installation, low cost, and ability to make a pressure tight joint' without weakening the pipe as is the case with threading. Dimensions for socket-welding fittings as offered by most manufacturers of the product are given in Table 10.
VALVES
, Valves are made with both threaded and flanged ends for screwed and bolted connections just as are pipe fittings.
The material used for valves of small size is generally brass pr bronze .r low pressures and forged steel for high pressures, while in the larger sizes either cast-iron, cast-steel or some of the steel alloys are employed. Tactically all iron or steel valves intended for steam or water work are bronze-mounted or trimmed.
Brass, bronze, and iron valves are generally designed for standard or '
extra heavy service, the former being used up to 125 lb and the latter up.
