Sockolet

Need a dependable branch outlet? Sockolet on MetalMitra comes in all major branch sizes and ratings to MSS SP-97, ready for reinforced branch connections on run pipe.

Through MetalMitra you can source Sockolet in stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex, nickel alloy and other grades, across a broad range of sizes and pressure ratings.

A sockolet is a branch outlet with a socket weld end, used for small-bore branches off a larger run pipe.

Olets are forged branch outlet fittings welded onto the run pipe to create a reinforced branch connection. They are a compact, cost-effective alternative to reducing tees and allow branches to be added at any position along the run pipe.

Available forms & variants

• Weldolet — Buttweld branch outlet for full-flow branches.
• Sockolet & Threadolet — Socket weld and threaded outlets for small-bore branches.
• Elbolet & Latrolet — Outlets for elbows and 45° lateral branches.
• Nipolet, Sweepolet & Flangeolet — Integral nipple, contoured and flanged outlets.

Performance highlights

• Socket Outlet — Socket weld branch end.
• Small-Bore Branches — For drains, vents and instruments.
• Integral Reinforcement — Designed to reinforce the run pipe at the branch.
• Cost Saving — Lighter and cheaper than a full reducing tee.
