From the heart of Hamilton’s industrial landscape, Latham Steel has built a reputation as a trusted partner for high-quality steel solutions. We are proud to supply and manufacture robust Carbon Steel WPHY 52 Pipe Fittings, engineered to meet the demanding challenges of modern infrastructure. Our commitment lies in providing durable, reliable components that form the essential connections in critical systems, supporting industries across New Zealand and beyond with locally sourced expertise and a steadfast dedication to excellence.
The strength of WPHY 52 fittings lies in their carefully balanced composition and performance. Primarily composed of carbon manganese steel, they are heat-treated to achieve a high yield strength of 52,000 psi, which gives them exceptional resistance to deformation under heavy loads. This high-strength characteristic is paired with good toughness and ductility, allowing the fittings to withstand not just constant pressure but also the impacts and vibrations commonly encountered in tough industrial environments.
