Welded End

Description used to describe an end connection type.  A non beveled end type connection would be used on a socket weld or a slip on flange type connection.  A beveled end type connection is required when butt welding two materials.  When butt welding, both pipe pieces must be prepared (beveled) on site for a precise fit.

May be also described as a plain end (PE) or a beveled end (PE).
