Cosponsors of the B16 Committee were The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ACME), the Heating and Piping Contractors National Association [now the Mechanical Contractors Association of America (MCAA)], and the Manufacturers Standardization Society of the Valve and Fittings Industry (MSS). Cosponsors were later designated as cosecretariat organizations. Standardization of welding fittings was initiated in 1937 by a subgroup (designated Subgroup 6) of Subcommittee 3. After consideration of several drafts, a standard was approved by the Committee, cosponsors, and ASA, and published with the designation ASA B16.9-1940. Revisions were made in 1950 and 1955 to add sizes up to NPS 24 and to complete coverage of fittings in some sizes. These revisions were approved and published as ASA B16.9-1951 and ASA B16.9-1958. With the subgroup now designated Subcommittee 6 (later Subcommittee F), further revisions were begun to clarify the intent of the standard, to add angularity tolerances, and to include fittings of different types (long radius reducing elbows and crosses) and smaller sizes (NPS '/4 and x). This revision was published as ASA B16.9-1964 after ASA approval. After reorganization of ASA, first as the United States of America Standards Institute (USASI), then as the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), with the Sectional Committee being redesignated as an American National Standards Committee, another revision increasing the size range to NI'S 48 and revising the text for clarity was approved and published as ANSI B16.9-1971. In 1975, Subcommittee F began a major revision to bring the standard up to date with current practice and usage. Common fractions were expressed as decimals (but without intending higher precision) and metric dimensional equivalents were added. Provisions for step-wise change of radius for NPS % long radius elbows and 180 deg returns were introduced. Following Standards Committee, cosecretariat, and ANSI approval, the revision was published as ANSI B16.9-1978. It was updated by a corrective addendum, B16.9a-1981, issued in February 1982. Ln 1982, American National Standards Committee B16 was reorganized as an ACME Committee operating under procedures accredited by ANSI. In ASME/ANSI B16.9-1986, the text was revised and inch dimensions were established as the standard. In 1991, the Subcommittee reviewed the document and made a number of revisions that were included in ACME 816.9-1993. Dimensions for short pattern lap joints were also added. In ACME B16.9-2001, short radius elbows and returns were added, which included all dimen- sions and tolerances of ACME B16.28-1994. Metric units were provided as an independent but parallel alternative standard to U.S. customary units and a Quality System Program appendix was added. In 2003, the Subcommittee reviewed the document and made a number of revisions. The scope of the standard was changed to permit fabricated lap joint stub ends employing circumferential or intersection welds. This Standard was approved as an American National Standard on October 15, 2003 and December 31, 2003. iv Copyright ASME International Provided by IHS under license with ASME Not for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS - - ` ` ` , , , - ` - ` , , ` , , ` , ` , , ` - - - ASME B16 COMMITTEE Standardization of Valves, Flanges, Fittings, and Gaskets (The following is the roster of the Committee at the time of approval of this Standard.)

ACME Standards are developed and maintained with the intent to represent the consensus of concerned interests. As such, users of this standard may interact with the Committee by requesting interpretations, proposing revisions, and attending Committee meetings. Correspondence should be addressed to: Secretary, B16 Standards Committee The American Society of Mechanical Engineers Three Park Avenue New York, NY 10016-5990 Proposing Revisions. Revisions are made periodically to the Standard to incorporate changes that appear necessary or desirable, as demonstrated by the experience gained from the application of the Standard. Approved revisions will be published periodically. The Committee welcomes proposals for revisions to this Standard. Such proposals should be as specific as possible, citing the paragraph number(s), the proposed wording, and a detailed description of the reasons for the proposal, including any pertinent documentation. Interpretations. Upon request, the B16 Committee will render an interpretation of any requirement of the Standard. Interpretations can only be rendered in response to a written request sent to the Secretary of the B16 Standards Committee. The request for interpretation should be clear and unambiguous. It is further recom- mended that the inquirer submit his/her request in the following format: Subject: Cite the applicable paragraph number(s) and the topic of the inquiry. Edition: Cite the applicable edition of the Standard for which the interpretation is being requested. Question: Phrase the question as a request for an interpretation of a specific requirement suitable for general understanding and use, not as a request for an approval of a proprietary design or situation. The inquirer may also include any plans or drawings which are necessary to explain the question; however, they should not contain proprietary names or information. Requests that are not in this format will be rewritten in this format by the Committee prior to being answered, which may inadvertently change the intent of the original request. ACME procedures provide for reconsideration of any interpretation when or if additional information that might affect an interpretation is available. Further, persons aggrieved by an interpretation may appeal to the cognizant ACME Committee or Subcommittee. ACME does not "approve," "certify," "rate," or "endorse" any item, construction, proprietary device, or activity. Attending Committee Meetings. The B16 Standards Committee regularly holds meetings, which are open to the public. Persons wishing to attend any meeting should contact the Secretary of the B16 Standards Committee. vi Copyright ASME International Provided by IHS under license with ASME Not for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS - - ` ` ` , , , - ` - ` , , ` , , ` , ` , , ` - - - ASME 816.9-2003 1 SCOPE 1.1 General This Standard covers overall dimensions, tolerances, ratings, testing, and markings for wrought factory-made buttwelding fittings in sizes NPS */2 through 48 (DN 15 through 1200). 1.2 Special Fittings Fittings may be made to special dimensions, sizes, shapes, and tolerances by agreement between the manu- facturer and the purchaser. 1.3 Fabricated Fittings Fabricated laterals and other fittings employing cir- cumferential or intersection welds are considered pipe fabrication and are not within the scope of this Standard. Fabricated lap joint stub ends are exempt from the above restrictions, provided they meet all the require- ments of the applicable ASTM material specification listed in para. 5. 1.4 Standard Units The values stated in either metric or U.S. customary units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the U.S. customary units are shown in parenthe- ses. The values stated in each system are not exact equiv- alents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with this St andard. The designation for size is NPS for both metric and customary dimensioned fittings. Fitting pressure rating is associated with the connecting wall thickness of pipe of equivalent size and material. 1.5 References 1.5.1 Referenced Standards. Standards and specifica- tions adopted by reference in this Standard are shown in Mandatory Appendix II. It is not considered practical to identify the specific edition of each standard and specification in the individual references. Instead, the specific edition reference is identified in Mandatory Appendix II. A product made in conformance with a prior edition of referenced standards and in all other respects conforming to this Standard will be considered to be in conformance. FACTORY-MADE WROUGHT BUllWELDI NG FITTINGS 1 1.5.2 Codes and Regulations. A fitting used under the jurisdiction of the ACME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, the ACME Code for Pressure Piping, or a govern- mental regulation is subject to any limitation of that code or regulation. This includes any maximum temperature limitation, or rule governing the use of a material at low temperature. 1.6 Service Conditions Criteria for selection of fitting types and materials suitable for particular fluid service are not within the scope of this Standard. 1.7 Welding Installation welding requirements are outside the scope of this Standard. 1.8 Quality Systems Nonmandatory requirements relating to the fitting manufacturer’s Quality System Program are described in Nonmandatory Appendix A. 1.9 Convention For the purpose of determining conformance with this Standard, the convention for fixing significant digits where limits (maximum or minimum values) are speci- fied shall be rounded off as defined in ASTM E 29. This requires that an observed or calculated value shall be rounded off to the nearest unit in the last right-hand digit used in expressing the limit. Decimal values and tolerances do not imply a particular method of mea- surement. 1.10 Pressure Rating Designation Class, followed by a dimensionless number, is the designation for pressure-temperature ratings. Standard- ized designations for flanges per ACME B16.5 referenced in this Standard are Classes 150, 300, 600, 900, 1500, and 2500. 2 PRESSURE RATINGS 2.1 Basis of Ratings The allowable pressure ratings for fittings designed in accordance with this Standard may be calculated as for straight seamless pipe of equivalent material (as shown by comparison of composition and mechanical properties in the respective material specifications) in Copyright ASME International Provided by IHS under license with ASME Not for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS - - ` ` ` , , , - ` - ` , , ` , , ` , ` , , ` - - - ASME 816.9-2003 FACTORY-MADE WROUGHT BUTMIELDING FITTINGS accordance with the rules established in the applicable sections of ACME B31, Code for Pressure Piping. For the calculation, applicable data for the pipe size, wall thickness, and material that is equivalent to that of the fitting shall be used. Pipe size, wall thickness (or sched- ule number), and material identity on the fittings are in lieu of pressure rating markings. 2.2 Design of Fittings The design of fittings shall be established by mathe- matical analyses (e.g., ACME B16.49 for bends) contained in nationally recognized pressure vessel or piping codes, or at the manufacturer?s option by proof testing in accor- dance with para. 9 of this Standard. In order to meet design or manufacturing requirements, it is expected that some portion of formed fittings may have to be thicker than the pipe wall with which the fitting is intended to be used. The mathematical analyses, if used, may take into account such thicker sections. Records of mathematical analysis and/or successful proof test data shall be available at the manufacturer?s facility for inspection by the purchaser. 3 SIZE NPS, followed by a dimensionless number, is the des- ignation for nominal fitting size. NPS is related to the reference nominal diameter,
