Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during tightening, which can strip threads or crack the brass.Tighten fittings snugly, using appropriate tools and torque recommendations for brass components.
Not verifying compatibility of pipe sealant or tape with brass fittings.Always use sealants and tapes specifically rated for brass or compatible with copper alloys.

Common Applications

  • Potable water distribution systems
  • Hydraulic and pneumatic lines
  • Heat exchangers and condensers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Maximum operating pressure and temperature must not exceed established limits for the specific brass alloy and Schedule 40 standard.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that can degrade the brass surface.
