Welding & Fabricating ASTM A335 P22 Pipe Fittings
ASTM A335 P22 welds by all common arc processes. A few points our buyers ask about:
| Matching filler | ER90S-B3 / E9018-B3 |
|---|---|
| Over-alloyed filler | Preheat and PWHT per ASME B31.1 / B31.3 |
| Preheat | As required by the WPS and code for the thickness |
| Cutting | Plasma or waterjet; grind off heat-tinted edges before welding |
Follow your approved WPS; this is general guidance. See also P22 fittings and P22 flanges for the matching pipe-system parts.

FOB / CIF · Nhava Sheva (JNPT), MumbaiASTM A335 P22 pipe fittings — questions buyers ask
Is ASTM A335 P22 the same as SA-335 P22?
Yes. SA-335 P22, 2¼Cr-1Mo alloy pipe, UNS K21590 all refer to the same material, and pipe fittings is ordered to ASTM A234 WP22 whichever name is on the enquiry.
Which standard covers ASTM A335 P22 buttweld fittings?
ASTM A234 WP22 is the material specification; dimensions follow ASME B16.9 (and MSS SP-43 for light-wall fittings). Forged socket-weld and threaded fittings are made from ASTM A182 F22 material to ASME B16.11.
Buttweld or socket weld — which do I need?
Buttweld fittings suit ½" and larger lines and full-penetration welds. Socket-weld and threaded fittings suit small-bore lines, usually 2" and under.
Can you supply a mixed list of fittings?
Yes. Send the full material requisition and we quote line by line with delivery for each item.
What documents come with the fittings?
An EN 10204 3.1 certificate for each heat, dimensional report and PMI report; 3.2 with a third-party inspector on request.
