What is the difference between Buttweld and forged?

Buttweld fittings are made by welding two pieces of pipe or fitting together, while forged fittings are made by forging a solid piece of metal into the desired shape. Buttweld fittings are used for larger pipe sizes and high-pressure applications, while forged fittings are used for smaller pipe sizes and lower-pressure applications.

What is the difference between a Buttweld and a socket weld?

Buttweld fittings are used for larger pipe sizes where high pressure and temperature are involved, while socket weld fittings are used for smaller pipe sizes and low-pressure applications. Buttweld fittings are joined by welding, while socket weld fittings are joined by inserting the pipe into the socket and then welding the joint.
