Socket weld half coupling · forged A105 · ASME B16.11 · UAE stock
A forged sleeve with a single socket, the other end prepared to weld directly onto a pipe wall, tank or vessel. It provides a quick, economical small-bore branch or instrument connection where a full tee would be oversized.

A socket weld half coupling is essentially one half of a full coupling. The socket end receives the branch pipe, while the plain end is set onto a hole cut in the header or vessel shell and welded around its base. It is a fast way to add drains, vents, thermowells and pressure tappings, but because it gives limited reinforcement, many piping specifications restrict it to branches well below the header size.
Hamza Fasteners supplies A105 socket weld half couplings from 1/8 to 4 inch in class 3000, with class 6000 for heavier lines. They are popular with tank fabricators, skid builders and maintenance crews across the UAE for adding instrument points and small branches. For larger branches we recommend sockolets. Contact our Dubai branch with the size and class to receive a quotation.
