Socket Weld Contraction Rings / Gap-O-Let
Satterlund Supply provides precision-engineered socket-weld contraction rings and Gap-o-Let branch fittings for creating high-integrity, full-penetration weld joints in piping systems without the need for complex beveling. Our socket-weld contraction rings—machined from carbon or stainless steel—ensure consistent root gaps and optimal heat distribution for leak-proof welds in high-pressure and high-temperature applications. Complementing these, our Gap-o-Let branch fittings offer a compact, one-piece solution for tapping into main pipes with minimal cutting and welding, available in butt-weld, socket-weld, and threaded styles to suit any service, from chemical processing to power generation. Manufactured to ASME B16.11 and MSS SP-97 standards, these components guarantee dimensional accuracy, corrosion resistance, and ease of installation. Backed by Satterlund Supply’s in-house cutting, beveling, and grooving services, you’ll receive ready-to-weld socket-weld contraction rings and Gap-o-Let fittings tailored to your exact specifications—delivered promptly throughout Michigan and Ohio, with shipping options nationwide!
