180 Degree Return Bend Manufacturer in India
Sawariya Metal Industries is a manufacturer, supplier, stockist and exporter of 180 Degree Return Bend in stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex, nickel alloy and other grades, in a wide range of sizes and pressure ratings.
A 180° return bend reverses the flow direction and is widely used in heat exchanger coils, furnace tubes and serpentine piping.
Buttweld fittings are bevelled at the ends and welded directly to the pipe, giving a continuous, leak-resistant joint with a smooth bore and low pressure drop. They are the standard choice for process piping above 2" NB and for high-pressure, high-temperature service.
Key Features of 180 Degree Return Bend
Full Reversal
Turns the flow back parallel to the original run.
Coil Applications
Used in heaters, coolers and heat exchangers.
Smooth Flow
Butt-welded joints give a smooth bore and low pressure drop.
High-Pressure Ready
Suited to high-pressure, high-temperature service.

Related Buttweld Fittings
Pipe Bends (3D, 5D, 10D)
Pipe bends are large-radius buttweld bends made by induction or cold bending, with radii such as 3D, 5D and 10D for low-turbulence flow and pigging-friendly pipelines.
Buttweld Equal Tee
An equal (straight) tee has a branch of the same size as the run, splitting or combining flow at 90° in buttweld piping systems.
Buttweld Reducing Tee
A reducing tee has a branch smaller than the run, allowing a smaller line to be taken off a main header at 90°.
Technical Note: Dimensions, pressure ratings and material properties should be verified against the applicable ASME / MSS / DIN / ISO standard, approved drawings, purchase order and Mill Test Certificate (MTC) before final use.
