subject: Making The Right Choice With Brass Fittings [print this page] One of the most essential materials used in the making of pipe fittings is Brass. Brass is an alloy which primarily comprises of copper and zinc. The demand for Pipe Fittings made from Brass is very high in the market because of their its properties. Brass Fittings are used for carrying liquids, flammable gases, chemicals, etc. and are also used in fire sprinkler systems, etc. Brass Pipe Fittings are manufactured in different shapes and thread sizes to provide for the smooth flowing of various gases or liquid in a pipe or tube, for several industrial operations.
Why Brass Fittings Are A Perfect Choice?
Durability and strength are the main features of Brass fittings because of which they are rampantly used in many industrial and residential applications.
Brass has higher corrosion resistance from liquids and high temperature. They can resist any sort of damage from Salt Water and Acids, Minerals and Peaty Soils (that are usually found in liquids). Brass Fittings are also used for their exceptional plating, joining, polishing and finishing characteristics.
The installation of Brass Fittings is very easy and the relative softness of the Brass Metal is an advantage in the sealing method incorporated in pipes and tubes.
When compared to plastics, Brass fittings provide for a more concrete platform to facilitate the flow of liquids and gases both in the process of reduction and direction.
Brass fittings have excellent high temperature ductility and a reasonable cold ductility. They are easy to assemble and do not cause any flaring in the process. Most common application of Brass Fittings is in Instrumentation, hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
Brass Flare Fittings can be reused. The seats and threads are internal and protected which is an advantage as they cannot get easily damaged and enhances the durability of the Fittings. Brass Flare Fittings are used in the applications of Hydraulic Brake, LP and Natural Gas, etc.
Brass Barb Fittings provides excellent resistance from vibrations during the operations. They are mainly used in vacuum and fluidic systems, Temperature control circuits, for testing apparatus, lubricant, coolant lines and pneumatic circuits, etc.
Brass Push-to-Connect Fittings are extensively used in the connections of fuel, oil, air, liquid petroleum (LP) and natural gas lines. Compressed air, pneumatic instrumentation, circuit, and lubricant are some of the applications where these kinds of fittings are used.
