ASME B16.11 Threaded Fitting Dimensions

Dimensions of ASME B16.11 forged threaded (screwed) fittings in millimetres for 90° and 45° elbows, tees, crosses, couplings, half couplings, caps, plugs and bushings in Class 2000, 3000 and 6000, from NPS ⅛" to 4".

Threads are NPT to ASME B1.20.1 unless BSPT is ordered. Teshi Group manufactures these fittings as an OEM from ASTM A105 and A182 forgings.

Notes

  • Dimensions are in millimetres unless stated otherwise.
  • The half-coupling length P is calculated as half the full-coupling length W.
  • A dash means the standard does not list that size in that class.

Reference information compiled from the published standard for convenience. It does not replace the current edition of the governing standard, which takes precedence. Verify critical dimensions and properties before design, purchase or fabrication. Teshi Engineers & Sales Promoters (P) Ltd accepts no liability for errors or omissions.
