General comment This EPD is an average EPD. This approach was chosen due to many different product sizes being available, which all require a different number of processing steps. The EPD includes weld fittings made of seamless steel pipes. The product portfolio consists of tees, concentric and eccentric reducers, saddles and flange tube ends. The products covered in this EPD are classified and traded under the following TARif Intégré Communautaire (TARIC): HS Code 73079319. TEEs: These products are pipe fittings in the shape of a “T”. They allow three pipes to be connected, creating a main pipe and a branch. Concentric reducers: These special pipe fittings are used in piping systems to connect two pipes with different diameters where the center points of the pipes are on the same axis. Eccentric reducers: These special pipe fittings are used in piping systems to connect two pipes with different diameters, where the center points of the pipes are not on the same axis but are offset to one another. Flange tube ends: These special pipe fittings are used in piping systems to enable a flange to be connected to the pipe. In the process, parts of a pipe are flanged and thus create a contact surface for the flange. Saddle fittings: A steel saddle fitting is a pipe fitting used to create a branch from a main line. The saddle fitting usually has one side that is welded onto a pipe and one open side that opens into another pipe or fitting. For the placing on the market in the European Union/European Free Trade Association (EU/EFTA) (with the exception of Switzerland) the following legal provisions apply: 2014/68/ EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 on the harmonization of the laws of the Member States relating to the making available on the market of pressure equipment and the harmonized standards based on these provisions: • EN 10253-1:2000, Butt-welding pipe fittings – Part 1: Wrought carbon steel for general use and without specific inspection requirements • EN 10253-2:2021, Butt-welding pipe fittings – Part 2: Non alloy and ferritic alloy steels with specific inspection. |
