- Function in Four-Way Flow Distribution: Butt welded crosses are applied where one pipeline has to be split to four directions at an intersection. They allow controlled flow or take away of fluids and gases and, therefore, they are appropriate to multidimensional piping systems in process plants where the space efficiency and flow symmetry are needed.
- Structural Stress Take into Account: Crosses have a greater stress concentration than tees because of the four-way crossing of pipes. The correct design, thickness of the walls and geometry are essential to sustain mechanical strength and to avoid fatigue or deformation of pressure and thermal expansion.
- Hand Finishing Process and Precision of Welds: These fittings are made by means of hot forming or fabrication welding in order to maintain the same thickness of the wall throughout the outlets. Proper beveling and roundness at both ends are able to produce strong butt welds joints at both ends, which lowers the chances of developing a weld defect upon installation.
- Material Grades and Application Reliability: Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Alloy Steel and Nickel Alloy butt welded crosses meet the requirements of ASME B16.9 standards. They are usually employed in the refineries, power plants and chemical plants where they are required with durability and pressure resistance combined with long term system integrity.

The butt welded crosses are used to divide or unite the flow in four directions without any discontinuity in internal bore and uniform distribution of stress. Tightness and precise control of the wall thickness and the welding ends is necessary to prevent the occurrence of turbulence and stress concentration at the junction areas. In piping layout optimization, Buttweld Reducers are commonly compared with crosses to control the changes of the diameters without the reduction of the flow efficiency and integrity of the welds. With proper selection, there is long-term reliability in terms of pressure, temperature and cyclic loading conditions.
