preventing pipe bow on fishmouth weld
(OP)
Are there any proper techniques or tricks to preventing pipe from bowing on a lateral weld? Connecting 16" pipe to 14" branches steel piping. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Jim.

What are the materials being welded and what is the schedule of the stainless piping ?
If the piping is thinner than 10S schedule, it can be a horror show to weld.
How about a sketch ???

Not sure if these procedures can be incorporated in your pipe welding WPS or PQR etc.
