Purchase fittings and pipe that are all the same material after you figure out the best material for the application...........or tell us the rest of the story to get some real help.

Hello quiinces: I think you refer to Weld-Neck and Blind Flange Black Steel Pipe. I am not sure why you would want to mix the types? But if you look at the info on #3 and #1 and 2 below it should be clearer. 1 http://www.pipedata.com/pdp_search.htm....... >mss sp44 elbow 2 http://www.pipedata.com/source=googleads&gclid=CLvE29_djJUCFQpYQgoddBMLfw.......> sr.B flange

3 http://www.pipedata.com/02_psp/faq1.htm.......>Some really useful info' here on sizes, wieghts etc.

4 www.easychinasupply.com/producttrade/last_pt_sel/653603.html

5 http://pngis.net/standards/details.asp?StandardID=MSS+SP-44%3A1996.......> You may find this useful also.

stay safe

Hello again quiinces:

I forgot to mention the pipe standards (as you listed) are the same World-Wide.
