Special pipe fittings

Special pipe fittings

M.E.G.A. designs and manufactures special fittings for critical applications in Oil & Gas, chemical, offshore, subsea, power generation, and nuclear sectors. Our production is entirely in-house, with complete control of forging, machining, heat treatment, welding, cladding, and certified laboratory testing.

Thanks to this integrated approach, we provide tailor-made components up to 80” and large-scale fittings in every steel grade, including stainless, duplex, nickel alloys, and titanium.

 

 

 

Special projects

 

Special Tee Fittings

 

special t fittings

A tee is a T-shaped fitting used to join or divide fluid flow. Available as equal tee or reducing tee. Special executions include:

  • Barred tee – fitted with restriction bars to allow pig passage
  • Flow tee – oversized outlet tee with guide tube for pig passage and flow control
  • Target tee – forged with a closed end, suitable for erosive flow conditions

 

Inserts (Megalets, Latromegalets, Elbomegalets, Insert Megalets BW)

 

special inserts

M.E.G.A. inserts are integrally reinforced branch connections.

  • Insert Megalet (BW): low Stress Intensification Factor (SIF), full NDE control, fatigue resistance, and compliance with ASME B31.3. Available in butt-weld, socket-weld, threaded, and flanged execution.

  • Designed for severe service conditions (Type I and II) and validated through FEM analysis and proof tests.

 

Nozzles

 

Flat fan, full cone, hollow cone, solid stream, air atomizing, special purpose nozzles

 

special nozzles

M.E.G.A. produces customized reinforced nozzles for heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and reactors. These nozzles can be designed as inclined flanged reinforced types and are used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications, with weights up to 40 tons.

 

Flanged products

 

Flanged Tee / Nipoflange / Flanged Spool / Flanged Nozzle

 

flanged products

Special flanged outlets provide branch connections with flanged terminations. They reduce installation cost, improve fatigue resistance, and are available from 1/2” to 12”, with pressure ratings from Class 150# to 2500#, RF or RTJ. Designed in accordance with ASME B31.3 and ASME B16.5.

 

Spools and Wyes

 

Piggable Wyes (asymmetric & symmetric)

 

special wyes

Y-shaped fittings allowing pig passage at tie-in connections. Designed with FEM validation, compliant with ASME VIII, B31.4, B31.8, and DNV standards. Manufactured from forged ingots with optional CRA cladding. Fully piggable in both directions.

 

Spools

Misalignment and Special Flanges

 

Misalignment Flanges

 

misalignment

Special flanges allowing up to ±10° misalignment between two pipelines. Equipped with spherical central body, rotating flanged rings, and metal-to-metal gasket seal. Designed according to ASME B16.5, B16.47, B31.3, API 6A, MSS SP-44. Validated with FEM analysis.

Anchor Flanges

Anchor flanges are special components used to restrain pipeline movement, absorbing axial forces generated by pressure and temperature variations. They are commonly applied in long pipelines or subsea applications.

 

Pipes

 

Forged Seamless Pipes

 

special pipes

M.E.G.A. produces forged seamless pipes up to 48” and 12 m length. Manufactured through trepanning, CNC boring, and internal grinding for precision. Available with CRA cladding, hydrotested, and compliant with API 5L and other international specifications.

 

Other Special Components

  • Bulkhead, Triple tees, Pig receiver, Elbow tees, Double crosses, Sweepolet, Welded valves (assembled with fittings, not produced internally), Double barred tees.

 

Applications and sectors

Our special fittings in piping are designed for high-demand industries and critical projects:

  • Oil & Gas – onshore, offshore, subsea pipelines and refineries
  • Petrochemical plants — M.E.G.A. manufacture chemical resistant pipe, tube, and pump fittings that meet very high-quality and security control standards.
  • Power generation – conventional and nuclear power stations
  • Renewables – wind energy components
  • Nuclear plants — Piping and fittings are a primary component of nuclear power plant infrastructure, being the channels through which the essential fluids for the production of nuclear energy flow.
  • Subsea and offshore installations — Working underwater requires a safe and reliable processing capability. M.E.G.A. S.p.A. is well aware of the stringent requirements necessary for products installed in surface or deep waters. Its products are fully compliant, most notably with DNV requirements.

 

Why choose M.E.G.A.

  • Engineering expertise: FEA analysis, CAD-CAM design, tailor-made solutions.
