BRASS FITTINGS – HEX NIPPLES , LONG NIPPLES , ELBOW , TEE , CROSS , REDUCER BUSH , REDUCER COUPLINGS , PLUG , CAPS
Brass fittings are widely used in plumbing, HVAC, and various industrial applications due to their corrosion resistance, durability, and ease of installation.
Here’s a breakdown of common brass fittings:
- Hex Nipples: Short, straight fittings with male threads on both ends for connecting pipes.
- Long Nipples: Similar to hex nipples but with a longer length for increased pipe separation.
- Elbows: Used to change the direction of a pipe at a 90-degree angle.
- Tees: Create a branch in a pipe, allowing for additional connections.
- Crosses: Create a four-way branch in a pipe.
- Reducer Bush: Connects two pipes of different diameters.
- Reducer Couplings: Connect pipes of different diameters with a coupling.
- Plugs: Seal the end of a pipe.
- Caps: Close the end of a pipe with a threaded cap.
