Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong sealant for the fluid being conveyed.Consult material compatibility charts to select a sealant or tape that is resistant to the specific fluid or gas.
Overtightening threaded connections, which can crack the brass fittings or damage the pipe threads.Tighten connections until snug, then an additional 1/4 to 1/2 turn for most brass fittings. Avoid excessive force.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic systems
  • Pneumatic lines
  • Corrosive fluid transfer
  • Instrumentation tubing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for use with strong oxidizing acids or ammonia-based solutions.
  • Always verify material compatibility with the specific fluid and operating temperature before installation.
