Glass pipe crosses for four-way connections in piping systems.
Pipeline Crosses Overview
Goel’s glass crosses function as four-way junctions within pipeline systems, allowing fluid branching or merging across two perpendicular axes. The site references “Crosses” in the pipeline components listing although the detailed page is marked as “READ MORE” and not fully elaborated. Given their similarity to standard glass fittings, they adopt the same inert, transparent, vacuum-compatible design ethos.
Specifications
Although detailed numeric data was not provided publicly, inferred specifications include:
– **Material**: Borosilicate glass 3.3
– **Vacuum Compatibility**: Designed for full vacuum operation
– **Nominal Sizes**: Likely matching standard pipeline DN range (15 to 800, or custom)
– **Geometry**: Four ports at 90° intersections
– **Surface / Finish**: Smooth internal surfaces to minimize pressure drop and fouling
– **Compatibility**: Designed to integrate with other pipeline components (e.g. bends, reducers, tees)
– **Customization**: Non-standard size or branch configurations likely available on request
Applications
Glass crosses are suitable for:
– Splitting or combining fluid streams in orthogonal directions
– Configuring multi-branch networks in glass process lines
– Enabling bypass lines or sampling branches in more complex flow schemes
– Use in pilot plants or laboratory setups where observation and purity are essential
