Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong type of sealant for brass.Always use sealants specifically formulated for use with brass to prevent corrosion or material degradation.
Over-stressing fittings during installation.Hand-tighten fittings first, then use appropriate tools for final snugging. Excessive force can damage threads or the pipe itself.

Common Applications

  • Water distribution systems
  • Chemical processing pipelines
  • Heat exchanger tubing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-pressure steam applications.
