Material and Manufacturing Assurance
ASTM A234 WPB is a widely used forged carbon steel material for pressure piping applications. It offers good weldability, mechanical strength, and compatibility with standard carbon steel pipelines.
For this UAE project, Haihao Group controlled the full production process, including:
- Raw material verification
- Dimensional and visual inspection
- Schedule and wall thickness control
- Final inspection with TC 2.1 documentation
This ensures each fitting complies with the specified design standard and project requirements.
Application in Middle East Pipeline Projects
The combination of ASME B16.9 pipe fittings, ASTM A234 WPB material, and 150LB pressure class makes these products suitable for:
- Oil and gas transmission pipelines
- Refinery and petrochemical plants
- Utility and industrial piping systems
- Water and non-corrosive fluid services
The UAE market places strong emphasis on product consistency, documentation, and delivery reliability-areas where Haihao Group continues to support international EPC contractors and distributors.
