Zhejiang Daye Flange Co., Ltd. is one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of forged equal cross in China. With abundant experience, we are committed to providing high quality flanges made in China with competitive price. We warmly welcome you to buy durable forged equal cross in stock here from our factory. Also, quotation is available.
The forged equal cross is a multi‑directional piping fitting formed by one‑piece forging process, with four orthogonal ports of identical nominal diameter. It is mainly applied in small‑bore high‑pressure piping systems to realize uniform diversion of one medium stream into three perpendicular directions (or combining three medium streams into the main run). It serves as a core multi‑way connection node for high‑pressure piping manifolds, instrument piping and hydraulic systems.
The forged equal cross enables uniform four‑way flow. It is suitable for high‑pressure piping node load‑bearing and compact piping layout, and ensures reliable connections for precision piping.

FAQ
Q: Must all four ports of a forged equal cross have the same size?
A: Yes. By definition, an Equal Cross features four ports of identical nominal diameter. When port sizes differ, it is classified as a Reducing Cross.
Q: What are the common connection types for forged equal crosses?
A: Socket‑weld (SW) and threaded (NPT) are the two mainstream types. Large‑bore butt‑weld crosses are generally produced by push forming or plate welding and do not belong to typical forged cross fittings.
Q: How to select between socket‑weld and threaded forged crosses?
A: Choose socket‑weld types for permanently installed piping under high pressure, high temperature and heavy vibration for superior sealing reliability. Threaded connections are suitable for frequently‑disassembled, low‑pressure instrument piping for easier assembly and disassembly.
Q: Which is better: one single equal cross or two spliced tees?
A: The one‑piece equal cross is preferred. As a single component, it reduces weld joints and potential leakage points, provides more compact structure, smoother flow path, easier installation and higher overall system dependability. The spliced solution is only adopted for special cases where finished cross fittings are unavailable.
