Brass fittings have both the durability corrosion resistance and affordability in various shapes and sizes to offer cost-efficient solutions; making them a perfect choice for many automotive applications. It is very common to find brass fittings within the air conditioning systems, air pump systems, fuel injection systems, radiator systems, carburetor systems, exhaust systems and they all fulfill DOT and EPA requirements. They are available in a variety of finishes and colors. They can be used on gas, oil or electric engines depending on the application requirements and they are also safe for use with electrical components.
A brass fitting is generally placed in one of two ways; either as an air stop or as a coupling to an external power supply point. The air stop is typically used on larger vehicles with a hot water supply; these fittings prevent pressure surges and high temperatures by closing off the flow of hot gases to the hot water supply. A coupling is used with a high temperature plumbing system where the valve or flange is located near the high temperature pipe. These brass fittings are often coated with a polyethylene coating to prevent corrosion and are available in various finishes to suit a wide range of applications. They are very useful for high temperature situations, because they allow only a limited amount of water to pass through and retain a low temperature. This feature helps to conserve energy when heating water is supplied to the system.
Brass fittings are also used within the plumbing system to form drain pipes and relief valves. The relief valve is used to relieve pressure from a pressure vessel when the latter is overflowing. Drainage pipes are commonly used for waste water disposal and these fittings are made out of brass because they are less expensive than other materials and they are easily adapted to different pipe sizes and configurations. Many drainage fixtures require a specific diameter to pass through them without causing any damage or back flow. Brass is an ideal choice because it has the ability to maintain its round shape and does not become blunt in any way. When pressure is applied to the valve, it easily springs back to its original position and delivers controlled back flow without causing any damage to plumbing fixtures.
The air stop is another popular plumbing fixture that is made out of brass. Air stops are often required for high temperature heating appliances and plumbing is often required for such purpose. The use of brass fittings allows these fittings to withstand high temperatures and ensure smooth flow of air into and out of the system. When hot water is supplied through the air pipe, a valve that seals the hot water supply is also formed by brass fittings. These valves are commonly used in conjunction with a high temperature heating system or for waste water disposal. They ensure that the system provides smooth and controlled flow of air and water ensuring efficient operation and maximum performance.
Pipe fittings are available in a number of different shapes and sizes, which make them very convenient to use. There are many options to choose from in brass fittings including round, oval, rectangular, and other common shapes. The various shapes make it possible to cover a variety of plumbing needs. Plumbers can choose from different finishes including polished brass, black oxide, chrome plated, and other high quality finishes to ensure durability and long life for their products.
Whether you are plumbing the inside or outside of a building, you will discover that brass fittings offer a variety of options. You will discover that brass fittings are a great solution when it comes to plumbing fixtures. The variety of shapes allows you to choose the one that best suits your needs and ensure that your next project is completed efficiently. You may find that you need to purchase several of these products to fully complete a plumbing system or application. Regardless of the size of your plumbing system or application, there is likely to be a brass fitting that will match the look that you are trying to achieve.
