This book was designed to ease the mind for pipefitters and welders and to simplify the layout of offsets and angles for the beginner as well as the novice. This book will help you understand how easy it is to layout offsets and angles. Also included in this book are charts showing you the take-off dimensions of pipefittings, flanges, etc. up to 42" and 48" diameter pipe along with gasket information.

This little book is big on answers Whether you're an apprentice in the piping trades or a seasoned tradesperson, you'll find this completely revised and updated guide has answers to the questions you'll encounter on the job. Get current, concise facts on * Metrics and conversions * Tungsten inert gas welding and arc welding * Steam heating, hot water, refrigeration, and air conditioning systems * Grooved end/plain end piping systems * Process piping using plastics * Automatic fire protection systems * Terms, BTU fuel values, abbreviations, angle calculations, and more

A Timeless Classic! Compact and pocket-sized, this handy reference contains thousands of facts and figures relevant to pipefitters, steamfitters-anyone concerned with layout and installation of pipe. Features Provides answers to all sorts of problems indigenous to power and industrial pipebending, and the fabrication of welding fittings in both shop and field. Logically categorizes all material according to job description, supporting each working table with a clear example of how to use it. Includes a special reference section that gives instant data on the 24 most useful on-the-job subjects, such as spark tests for metals, sheet metal weights, valve types, weights and measures, and many more. Discusses all types of bends; elbows, tees, and crosses; plastic pipe; soldering and brazing; travel and run; fitting dimensions; threading pipe; relative physical properties; and more.

This book was created with over (10,000) formulas worked out to create over (1,600) pipe templates to simplify the everyday task of pipe layout and fabrication for pipefitters and welders. In this book you will find pipe templates for the following. Concentric LR 90 degree base ell supports for (1 1/2" pipe on 1 1/2" pipe) through (24" pipe on 48" pipe.) Dummy leg supports laying flat on 90 degree ells (1 1/2" pipe on 2" pipe) through (14" pipe on 48" pipe.) Eccentric LR 90 degree base ell supports (1 1/2" pipe on 2" pipe) through (24" pipe on 48" pipe.) Eccentric throat level LR 90 degree base ell support (1 1/2" pipe on 2" pipe) through (24" pipe on 48" pipe.) 22 1/2 degree lateral through 60 degree lateral (1 1/2" pipe on 1 1/2" pipe) through (24" pipe on 48" pipe.) 7 1/2 degree miters through 45 degree miters (1 1/2" pipe) through (48" pipe) Orange peel head (2" pipe) through (24" pipe) Concentric reducers (3" x 2") through (24" x 22") Eccentric reducers (3" x 2") through (24" x 22") 90 degree concentric saddle tee (1 1/2" pipe on 1 1/2" pipe) through (42" pipe on 48" pipe) 90 degree eccentric saddle tee (1 1/2" pipe on 2" pipe) through (42" pipe on 48" pipe) This book also includes pipe information on decimal equivalents charts, decimal of a foot chart, fitting to fitting make-up dimension chart, formula's for center line dimensions of trimmed elbows, chart for length and spacing dimensions for nozzles with and without reinforcing pads, multiplier constants, pipe circumference chart, pipe data charts by schedule and weights and wall thickness and weights, formula's for solving known and unknown angles, chart for dimensions of span distance for dummy legs, standard valve dimensions chart and trigonometric formula tables.

A standard reference for decades, this new edition of Pipe Welding Procedures continues to reinforce the welder's understanding of procedures. Drawing on his extensive practical and teaching experience in the field, the author describes in detail the manipulating procedures used to weld pipe joints. You will find useful information on heat input and distribution, essentials of shielded metal-arc technology, distortion, pipe welding defects, welding safety, essentials of welding metallurgy, and qualification of the welding procedure and the welder. Look for new or expanded coverage of: Features Root Bead--Pulse Current--Gas Tungsten Arc Welding Shielded Metal Arc Welding--Electrode Welding Steel for Low Temperature (Cryogenic) Service Down Hill Welding--Heavywall and Large Diameter Welding Metallurgy Weld Repair

"Fitters & Welders Handbook" is a practical guide of Engineering Technique employed by Fitter and Welder engaged in process piping job or final year apprentice preparing for service interview. I do not claim that "Pipe Fitter & Welder Handbook" is the final book as a guide for Piping Engineering work. I have tried my best to share the knowledge and experience to make it better for Fitters & Welders whether final year apprentice or fresher in service or working as a junior in construction field and doing the Piping Engineering job. It is easy to grasp the basic knowledge and principles of Piping EngineeringPiping Fitter is the main technical professional who is responsible to deliver the quality job of piping work and he should have sufficient knowledge of Piping Engineering."Pipe Fitter Handbook" book has proved to be a friend and guide to many Pipe-Fitters, Contractors, and Technicians working with any Construction Companies and Consultants, who are responsible for Lays out, assembling, installation of piping systems, pipe supports, applying their knowledge of construction experience following blueprints and Select type and size of pipe, and related materials and equipment, such as supports, hangers, and hydraulic cylinders, according to piping drawings and specifications.
