Brass Fittings

Uses for Brass Fittings

Brass is a preferred metal for fittings because of its durability, versatility, and corrosion resistance. Construction technicians and plumbers prefer brass pipe fittings for transporting water, slurries, chemicals, flammable gases, and other substances without leaking. Brass fittings are available in various shapes and thread sizes to adapt to any liquid or gas pipe application.

Automotive brass fittings include hose ends, air brakes, and fuel lines. Manufacturers also use brass to make refrigerator cooler fittings, compression fittings, ballcock adaptors, and brass hose barb fittings.

Benefits of Brass Fittings

Most people prefer brass fittings because they are safe, durable, and effective. They may be slightly more expensive than fittings made of other materials, but their benefits often outweigh the cost.
