Product overview

Steel Dismantling Joint VSSJA B2F

The VSSJA B2F is a fabricated steel configuration used where the project specification calls for steel construction and a restrained adjustable connection. Dimensions, coating and duty are prepared against the piping schedule rather than assumed from DN alone.

Fabricated steel option with tie rods for installation adjustment.

Choosing Steel Dismantling Joint VSSJA B2F

B2F should be quoted only against the project designation and drawing. If the tender names C2F, or if both ends and tie-rod arrangement differ from the B2F schedule, compare the C2F configuration before accepting dimensions or drilling.

Frequently asked questions

Steel Dismantling Joint VSSJA B2F FAQ

When should a VSSJA B2F steel dismantling joint be specified?

Start with the B2F configuration when the project calls for fabricated steel construction and its restraint arrangement matches the piping detail. A dimensioned layout is essential because the face-to-face length, coating and duty may be engineered for the installation.

Is B2F interchangeable with a C2F dismantling joint?

Not without a drawing review. The end arrangement, tie-rod layout and installation dimensions can differ. Quote the exact designation shown on the tender or submit the piping drawing for confirmation before manufacture.

What coating information should accompany a B2F enquiry?

State the internal and external exposure, specified coating system, colour if controlled, surface preparation requirement and any field-repair procedure. Also identify the medium and temperature so material compatibility can be reviewed.
