International Equivalents of ASME B16.11 Forged Fittings?
International Equivalents of ASME B16.11 Forged Fittings?
(OP)
Is there a DIN, BS, EN, JIS or other common dimensional standard equivalent or comparable to ASME B16.11 for forged fittings?
I hope someone with broader horizons than myself can answer without expending more than a few seconds. My google searches and the reference books I have didn't turn up anything in the first 10 minutes.

"And as a follow up, how prevalent are these versus ASME B16.11 fittings?" That just depends on the client, location and project. I've had some projects where one area is DIN and other area is ASME/ANSI. Make the connection with a pipe in the middle.
What would you be doing, if you knew that you could not fail?
