Next time try using a lighter weight 'olet. WFI International
(www.wfi-intl.com) make sch. 5S & 10S branch connections. These lighter
weight "Pipet" connectors allow you to use fewer weld passes thus minimizing
heat distortion on the run pipe. We used Bonney Forge for years and they are
excellent on sch. 40 and heavier materials, but had some distortion problems
occasionally when making up manifolds with numerous branches. That problem
was solved using the WFI units.

right.
