SA-335 P22 · 2¼Cr-1Mo alloy pipe
An ASTM A335 P22 lateral is a fitting with a 45° branch, for use with ASTM A335 P22 pipe. ASTM A335 P22 itself is a pipe or plate specification, so the matching lateral is made to ASTM A234 WP22 — which is what we supply for P22 lines. 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), MumbaiASTM A335 P22 Lateral — questions buyers ask
When is a lateral better than a tee?
Where lower turbulence matters — slurries, solids and gravity drainage.
Which standard covers ASTM A335 P22 laterals?
The material is ASTM A234 WP22; 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 ASTM A335 P22 lateral?
The steel price, the size and schedule or class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
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.
