Regardless of tolerances specified for dimensions A and B, the thickness

thickness of the pipe.
For complete dimensions, details, and tolerances, see ASME B 16.25.
OUTSIDE CONTOUR
When the thickness at the welding end of the valve is greater than that of
the mating pipe, and when the additional thickness increases the outside
diameter, a taper weld having a slope not exceeding 1:3 may be
employed, or the greater outside diameter may be extended back in a
manner within the maximum slope lines indicated in Figs. 1A and 1B.
The trasmetion shall be of a shape avoiding sharp re-entrant angles and
abrupt changes in slope. The profile of the outside contour shall be at the
manufacturer’s option provided above conditions are met.
For a joint without a continuous backing ring, the inside contour of the
valve end shall be bored to a diameter B to a depth of 1½t. The inside
diameter of a valve end beyond this machined surface may be either
larger of smaller than the inside diameter of the pipe. The trasmetion shall
be of a shape avoiding sharp re-entrant angles and abrupt changes in
slope. See Figs. 1A and 1B. (Trasmetion shape also applies to Fig. 2 and
3.)
For a joint with a continuous rectangular backing ring, the inside contour
of the valve end shall be a straight bore of diameter C, ½in. deep. This
depth is based on a backing ring 3/4 in. wide; but if a wider ring is used,
the depth shall be increased to provide the 1/8 in. minimum end
clearance indicated. See Fig. 2.
For a joint with a continuous tapered backing ring, the inside contour of
the valve end shall be taperbored from diameter C at the lip, taperling at
10 deg. to a taper length of 7/32 in. minimum. Beyond this taper length,
the bore may be a straight diameter of dimension B, or the 10 deg. taper
may be extended to the inside port diameter. See Fig. 3.
* See Figs. 1A and 1B for Outside Contours.
