ASME/ANSI B16.9 Stub End

Leading Supplier of High-Quality Lap Joint Stub End Fittings

A Lap Joint Stub End is a buttweld pipe fitting designed to be used in conjunction with a lap joint flange. It enables easy disassembly and alignment of piping systems, making it a preferred choice in industries where frequent maintenance or inspection is required. Stub ends are primarily utilized in systems where space constraints or corrosion resistance is a priority, as they help reduce the risk of flange-face damage. Available in various materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel, these fittings are suitable for applications in oil and gas, chemical processing, and water treatment industries.

Long Stub Ends are used in standard piping systems where the connection needs additional strength or when the piping alignment requires extended support. Short Stub Ends are ideal for compact spaces or low-pressure applications. Both types are manufactured as per ASME B16.9 standards to ensure dimensional accuracy and reliability. The choice between long and short stub ends depends on specific project requirements such as pressure, temperature, and installation space.

Ample Alloys takes pride in being a trusted manufacturer of Stub Ends, designed to deliver reliable and efficient performance in diverse piping systems. Whether it's Long Stub Ends for extended support or Short Stub Ends for compact installations, our products are tailored to meet the specific needs of various industries. Using advanced manufacturing techniques and high-grade materials, we ensure our Stub Ends offer exceptional strength, precision, and resistance to corrosion. At Ample Alloys, we are committed to providing high-quality fittings that meet global standards, making us a preferred partner for critical applications in industries.
