Overview

Forged socket weld outlets for branching off larger headers

A socket weld branch outlet sits on the outside of the run pipe over a cut hole. Its base is contoured to the header OD and bevelled for a full penetration weld, and its top has a socket matching ASME B16.11 for the branch pipe. Integrally reinforced outlets of this type are covered by MSS SP-97, which ensures the outlet itself provides the reinforcement for the opening, so no pad is needed.

Hamza Fasteners supplies A105 socket weld outlets in class 3000 and 6000 for branch sizes 1/4 to 2 inch on headers from 3/8 inch up. These are the outlets fabricators reach for on pipe racks, process headers, fire water mains and offshore modules. The commonly used trade name is sockolet. Send the header size and schedule plus branch size to our Dubai team for a quote.

FAQ

Common questions

Why use a branch outlet instead of a reducing tee?
On headers above 2 inch a reducing tee becomes heavy and needs two extra butt welds in the run. An outlet welds onto the existing header with one weld, keeps the run continuous and is far lighter, while still giving full branch reinforcement.
What information do you need to supply an outlet?
We need the header (run) size and schedule, the branch size, the class (3000 or 6000) and the material. The base is contoured for a specific header size, so the run size must be correct.
Do you have outlets for different header sizes?
Yes. Branch sizes 1/4 to 2 inch are supplied for a wide spread of header sizes and schedules, in class 3000 and 6000. Threaded and butt weld outlets and 45° laterals are also available. Send your full take-off and we will confirm shelf stock in Deira the same day.
How much do socket weld outlets cost in Dubai?
There is no single price for socket weld outlets: a 1/2 inch class 3000 piece costs far less than a 4 inch one, and alloy grades cost more than A105. WhatsApp us the size, class and quantity for a firm quote.
Do you deliver socket weld outlets across the UAE, GCC and Africa?
Yes. Local UAE deliveries go out from Deira quickly, and we regularly consolidate export orders to the GCC and Africa. Tell us the destination and required date and we will confirm the route and lead time.
Is a socket weld outlet the same as a sockolet?
Sockolet is the widely used trade name for this type of fitting. Both describe a forged, integrally reinforced 90° branch with a socket weld outlet made to MSS SP-97. We use the generic term on purpose, since the name originated as a brand.
