VNE Unpolished Tube OD Stainless Steel Fittings
When you need rugged, cost‑effective stainless components—and don’t need a sanitary polish—VNE Unpolished Tube OD Weld Fittings deliver. Produced in T304 or T316L stainless with a consistent tumbled finish, these fittings provide dependable weldability and a clean, uniform appearance across your system. Standard sizes span 1/2″ through 8″ OD, giving designers broad coverage for projects in general industrial processing, utilities, and mechanical rooms where a high‑luster finish isn’t required.
Built for fit, strength, and straightforward fabrication
VNE specifies uniform wall thickness by size for predictable, repeatable welds: 0.065″ (16 ga) from 1/2″ to 3″, 0.083″ (14 ga) at 4″, and 0.109″ (12 ga) in 6″ and 8″. This consistency helps maintain alignment, minimizes warp, and simplifies procedure qualification—especially on repetitive fab work. The unpolished, tumbled finish is ideal where sanitary surface criteria aren’t necessary, but visual uniformity still matters.
A complete family for almost any run
Shape your layout with a complete elbow offering: 90° elbows with or without tangents (V2S, V2WC) and 45° elbows with or without tangents (V2KS, V2WK), plus 180° U‑bends (V2WU) when tight footprints demand a compact turnaround. Each style is supported by dimensional tables, which speed up takeoffs and shop drawings.
Branching and transitions, covered
Choose long or short tees (V7W, V7WWW) to match spacing constraints, or select reducing tees (V7WR) to step down flow within the run. Need four‑way distribution? The catalog’s crosses (V9W) keep branch alignment accurate without cobbling multiple welds. All come in the same OD increments and gauge standards for system consistency.
End the line right—and adapt when you must
Terminate cleanly with weld caps (V16W) or build flange connections using Type A stub ends with grooves (V14WA). Threaded transitions are easy with Male and Female NPT × Weld Adapters (19WB / 22WB), and wrench‑flat versions (19WBF / 22WBF) simplify installation on 1″–4″ sizes. These options streamline changeouts and allow mixed‑technology systems without compromising your welded backbone.
Smooth reductions and specialty flow geometry
Handle line size changes with concentric (V31W) or eccentric (V32W) reducers to maintain velocity profiles and prevent pooling on horizontal runs. For splitting flows with minimal turbulence, VNE’s TRUE Y (V28WB) and 45° laterals (V28WA) help preserve throughput and simplify cleaning procedures when required. Slip‑on flanges (E38SL) and 6L B/W rubber hose barb blanks (V14RH) round out a toolbox that supports everything from equipment tie‑ins to temporary hose connections.
