Most brass fittings have a temperature range of -65 Deg F to +250 Deg F. They can be used on copper, brass, aluminum, plastic, and welded steel.
(Note: Compression fittings are not recommended for steel tubing)
Working pressure vary by type and isze of tubing used, and style of fitting. However, based on .032 wall copper tubing, the pressure may range as follows depending on sizes:
CONNECTION TYPE | WORKING PRESSURE |
Flare (1/8" to 3/4") | 600 to 3000 PSI |
Compression | 100 to 400 PSI |
Iron Pipe | Up to 1200 PSI |
Plastic Tubing | Up to 150 PSI |
MANUFACTURING TECHNIQUES
EXTRUDED FITTINGS: |
FORGED FITTINGS: |
|
All extruded fittings are shaped from a single bar stock by different machining operations. The result is a one-piece, solid brass fitting without seams or brazed joints. All bar stock is made of an exclusive alloy material that is extruded and drawn to precise tolerances. This one-piece construction process eliminates splits, pin holes, sand holes and potential leakers. To create each fitting, bar stock is extruded into the required configuration. Then it's drawn to size, straightened and cut to length. This process invloes heating a solid round billet to the pliable state and forcing it with pressure through a doe. Next, the formed bar is cooled and drawn through dies to the desired external sizes, straightened, then cut to length. This extrusion process produces a fittings material that's dense, nonporous, and stronger in its longitudinal direction. |
To produce forged fittings, material is extruded into round bars, cut to length and straightened, creating forging rod that differs from extruded machinable bars in its temper and chemical compositions. Then the bars are cut again into short-length slugs, reheated to the pliable state and pressed. Next, they're cooled, the flash is trimmed and the forging blank is machined into its finished form. Forming fittings under extreme pressure produces a uniformly dense material with high impact strength and resistance to mechanical shock and vibration. |

|
BRASS PIPE FITTING : |
BRASS PUSH-ON FITTING : |
|
Product Application : • For use with brass, copper or iron pipe. Product Advantage : • All pipe fitting threads meet the standards developed by the Society of Automotives Engineers (SAE). Vibration : • Fair resistance to vibration and pipe movement depending on conditions. |
Product Application : • Brass Hose fittings are manufactured with Dryseal pipe threads. |
|
BRASS HOSE FITING : |
BRASS PUSH-ON FITTING : |
|
Product Application : • Brass Hose fittings are manufactured with Dryseal pipe threads. |
Product Application : • Brass Push-on fittings are designed for use with push-on style hose only. Product Advantage : • No hose clamps or ferrules are needed. Vibration: • Good Vibration resistance. | |
BRASS CAPTIVE FITTING : | ||
Product Applications : • Not use with copper, aluminum and thermoplastic tubing. Not recommended for steel tubing. Product Advantage : • Brass Captive sleeve fittings make connections without any flaring, soldering or tubing preparation. Vibration : • Fair resistance to minimal vibration or tube movement. |
