In Longrun factory,we process the bevel end as per standard.When the ends thickness is less than 22mm,we use 37.5° bevel end with 1.6mm flat face,when the pipe end thickness is more than 22mm,we use the composite bevel ends for easily and fully welding.If you have any questions about our products,please contact us immediately.
