Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible thread sealant for brass fittings.Always use thread sealants specifically rated for brass or compatible with brass alloys to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Over-tightening pipe fittings, leading to thread damage.Tighten fittings to the recommended torque values to avoid stripping threads or cracking the brass material.

Common Applications

  • Marine applications
  • Chemical processing systems
  • Hydraulic and pneumatic lines
  • High-pressure fluid transfer

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for use with strong oxidizing acids or ammonia-based solutions.
  • Ensure proper support and anchoring to prevent vibration-induced fatigue.
