Alloy 400 · UNS N04400
A Monel 400 lateral is a fitting with a 45° branch, made from Monel 400 to ASTM B366 WPNC. Laterals bring in a branch at 45°, reducing turbulence and pressure drop compared to a tee. Common in drainage, slurry and process lines.

FOB / CIF · Nhava Sheva (JNPT), MumbaiMonel 400 Lateral — questions buyers ask
When is a lateral better than a tee?
Where lower turbulence matters — slurries, solids and gravity drainage.
Which standard covers Monel 400 laterals?
The material is ASTM B366 WPNC; dimensions follow MSS SP-43 / manufacturer standard. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Monel 400 lateral?
The alloy price, the size and schedule or class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
Can you supply Monel 400 laterals to NACE MR0175?
Yes. Monel 400 is listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits; state NACE compliance on the order and it is confirmed on the certificate.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 mill certificates as standard, 3.2 with third-party inspection on request, plus dimensional and PMI reports.
