Leading Supplier, Stockist and Exporter of Forged Fittings
BB Infras is a recognised supplier, stockist and exporter of forged high-pressure pipe fittings used in hydraulic, pneumatic, oil & gas, chemical, and instrumentation piping systems. Our forged fittings are manufactured from closed-die forgings, providing superior mechanical properties and pressure resistance compared to cast alternatives.
All forged fittings are supplied to ASME B16.11 in pressure classes 2000#, 3000# and 6000# with Socket Weld (SW) or Threaded (NPT/BSPT) end connections. Sizes range from ¼" NB to 4" NB in standard stock, with larger sizes available on order.
Materials include Carbon Steel (ASTM A105, A105N), Low-Temperature Carbon Steel (ASTM A350 LF2), Alloy Steel (ASTM A182 F5/F11/F22/F91), Stainless Steel (ASTM A182 F304/316/321), Duplex (F51/F53), Nickel Alloys (Inconel 625/718, Monel 400, Hastelloy C276), and Titanium Grade 2.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What pressure classes do forged fittings come in?
- A: ASME B16.11 forged fittings are available in Class 2000#, 3000# and 6000#. Higher pressure classes (9000#, 10000#) are available in special forgings for ultra-high-pressure applications.
- Q: SW vs Threaded — which should I use?
- A: Socket Weld fittings are preferred for high-pressure, high-temperature applications as the weld provides superior strength. Threaded fittings are used where welding is not practical, typically in lower-pressure utility services.
- Q: Do you supply forged fittings with MTC?
- A: Yes — all forged fittings are supplied with EN 10204 3.1 MTC. Hardness test, impact test and PMI reports available on request.
