How to get high quality pipe olets?
Pipe olets are fittings which provide an outlet from a larger pipe to a smaller one (or one of the same size). The main pipe onto which the branch connection is welded is usually called the Run or Header size. The pipe to which the branch connection provides a channel is usually called the Branch or Outlet size. Branch connections are in all sizes, types, bores, and classes, in a wide range of stainless steel, chrome-moly, and other alloys.
Types of pipe olets
WELDOLET® is the most common of all branch connections, and is welded onto the outlet pipe. The ends are bevelled to facilitate this process, and therefore the weldolet is considered a butt-weld fitting. Weldolet’s are designed to minimize stress concentrations and provide integral reinforcement. Weldolet makes 90-deg branch, full-size or reducing, on straight pipe. Closer manifolding is possible than with tees. Flat-based weldolets are available for connecting to pipe caps and vessel heads. (MSS SP-97 UNS S31803 Weldolet DN50 X DN50 Sch40)

SOCKOLET® utilizes the basic Weldolet® however the branch affixes by way of a socket inside the olet. The bore matches the outlet bore, and the existence of a counter bore roughly the size of the OD of the outlet provides a socket where the pipe can sit, facilitating installation and welding. The Sockolet® is considered a socket fitting, and manufactured in 3000#, 6000# and 9000# classes. Sockolet makes a 90-deg branch, full-size or reducing on straight pipe. Flat-based sockolets are available for branch connections on pipe caps and vessel heads.(MSS SP-97 ASTM A182 316L Sockolet 8 X 2 Inch 3000LBS)

THREDOLET® utilizes the basic Weldolet® however the branch affixes by way of a thread just inside the top of the olet. The bore matches the outlet bore, and the existence of this threading facilitates installation, as no welding is necessary. The Thredolet® is considered a threaded fitting, and manufactured in 3000# and 6000# classes. Threadolet makes a 90-deg branch, full-size or reducing on straight pipe. Flat-based Threadolet are available for branch connections on pipe caps and vessel heads. (MSS SP-97 ASTM A105 Threadolet NPT PN400)

LATROLET®, used for 45° lateral connections, is available butt-weld to meet specific reinforcement requirements, and 3000# or 6000# classes for Socket Weld and threaded applications. It makes a 45-deg branch from the main pipe. Mostly latrolets are used in the flare relief lines where the branches are going to connect with the main flare headers, Latrolets are always connected towards the flow to flare.

Specifying the Schedule of both the Run and Branch
Generally the schedules of the run pipe and branch pipe are identical and thus specification of the equivalent schedule Weldolet assures the proper fitting being used.
EXAMPLE:
16″ Standard weight x 6″ Standard weight is specified as a 6″ standard weight fitting.
Where the schedule of the run is greater or less than the schedule of the branch, it is essential that both schedules be specified since (a) The Weldolet’s reinforcing characteristics are a function of the run pipe wall thickness, which in turn designates the schedule of the basic Weldolet® fitting to be used;(b) The wall thickness of the outlet or branch end must match the wall thickness of the branch pipe.
EXAMPLE:
16″ Extra strong x 6″ Standard weight
16″ Standard weight x 6″ Extra strong
Special care is suggested to avoid confusing schedule 40 and standard weight as being identical (above 10″ schedule 40 is heavier) and schedule 80 and extra strong (above 8″ schedule 80 is heavier).
EXAMPLE:
8″ Schedule 80 x 4″ Schedule 80 fitting or extra strong fitting.18″ Schedule 80 x 4″ Schedule 80 is a considerably heavier fitting, because the reinforcement is for 18″ schedule 80 pipe with a wall thickness of approximately 1″.
The Weldolet® is available in standard code designs for all combinations of run wall thicknesses up through 3½” thickness and branch wall thicknesses up through double extra strong. Designs for thicknesses greater than these can be developed on request.
