ASME B16.11 Class 3000 / 6000 Forged Steel Fittings
ASME B16.11 governs forged steel pipe fittings in socket weld (SW) and threaded (NPT / BSPT) configurations for severe high-pressure fluid, chemical, and steam piping. Seamless Steel Industries stocks Class 3000, 6000, and 9000 fittings in ASTM A105 carbon steel, ASTM A182 stainless steel, and alloy grades.
Pressure Containment & Precision Forging Geometry
Forged from solid bar stock or closed-die forgings, ASME B16.11 fittings provide robust pressure containment for small-bore piping (1/8″ to 4″ NB). Socket weld designs offer deep socket bore tolerances that simplify alignment before fillet welding, while threaded fittings feature precision NPT threads per ASME B1.20.1 for bubble-tight chemical and gas connections.
Fitting Configurations & Companion Sizing
Our inventory includes 90° and 45° Elbows, Equal and Reducing Tees, Full and Half Couplings, Pipe Caps, Hex Head Bushings, Square/Hex Head Plugs, Unions with integral ground joints, Hex Nipples, and Swage Nipples. Class 3000 fittings correspond to Schedule 80/XS pipe wall thickness, while Class 6000 matches Schedule 160.
Traceability & Central Hub Dispatch
Every fitting features hard-stamped batch heat markings, pressure class ratings, and standard identifiers per MSS SP-25. Accompanied by EN 10204 3.1 inspection certification and dispatched centrally from Kalyan Phata, Mumbai–Thane along with matching flanges and pipes.

Typical Industrial Applications
Quality Control & Inspection Assurance
All supplies are processed through rigorous quality protocol to verify dimensional conformity, metallurgical integrity, and full documentation traceability.
EN 10204 3.1 Mill Test Certificates
Authentic manufacturer test certificates verifying chemical heat composition, mechanical tensile/yield strength, and elongation accompany every consignment.
NABL Testing Laboratory Readiness
Supplementary testing facilitated through ISO/IEC 17025 (NABL) accredited laboratories including Hydrostatic, Ultrasonic (UT), Eddy Current (ET), and Hardness.
Third-Party Inspection (TPI)
Complete facility access and staging for independent inspection agencies: LRS, TUV, DNV, Bureau Veritas, SGS, Engineers India Limited (EIL), or client inspectors.
100% Heat Number Traceability
Permanent paint stenciling and low-stress hard stamping provide direct correlation between physical material and certified mill test records.
