Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the nuts, which can damage the threads or the pipe.Use a torque wrench to tighten nuts to the manufacturer's recommended specification.
Using standard steel hardware with titanium, leading to galvanic corrosion.Always use titanium or compatible alloy fasteners and washers to prevent dissimilar metal corrosion.

Common Applications

  • Marine and offshore piping systems
  • Chemical processing and transport
  • Aerospace and high-performance fluid systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper torque is applied during installation to prevent thread damage or loosening.
  • Verify compatibility with surrounding materials to avoid galvanic corrosion, especially in wet or saline environments.
