Pipe Fittings Dimensions
Pipe fitting dimensions determine whether an elbow, tee, reducer, cap or flange will match the adjoining pipe and fit the installation space. Always use the applicable standard and approved drawing as the final reference.
Dimensions to check
| Fitting | Important dimensions |
|---|---|
| Elbow | Nominal size, radius, center-to-end, wall thickness and bevel |
| Tee | Run size, branch size, center-to-end and wall thickness |
| Reducer | Large end, small end, length, wall thickness and orientation |
| Flange | Outside diameter, bore, thickness, bolt circle, holes and facing |
How to verify a drawing
- Check the standard and units.
- Compare nominal size and wall or schedule.
- Confirm end preparation and orientation.
- Match the inspection record to the approved dimensions.
FAQ
Are nominal size and measured outside diameter the same?
No. Nominal size is a designation; the actual outside diameter and wall thickness depend on the pipe system and standard.
