Choosing the right fittings for residential and industrial applications requires quite a bit of expertise and industry experience. At Blair Supply Corp, we closely work with the leading names in the water materials industry to provide brass water service fittings manufactured according to the latest AWWA requirements and guidelines. We offer a multitude of fittings approved for water service applications, including standard compression joint valves, copper flare, threaded, and u-branch fittings for sale.

What are the different types of fittings?

Due to the fact that water service fittings are used for a great number of different purposes in industrial applications, they come in a wide variety of materials, shapes, and configurations. Here are some of the most commonly used fitting types:

Elbow fittings are typically installed between two pipe sections to change the direction of the flow. They usually come at a 90° or 45° angle, but other angles are also available. They can come in several diameters and can be butt welded, socketed, or threaded.
Tee, cross, and wye fittings are commonly used to split or combine sections of pipes or tubes. Wye and tee fittings have two outputs and one input each which intersect at 45° and 90° angles, while cross fittings have three outputs and one input interesting at 90° angles.
Unions and couplings are used to connect two sections of pipe or tube. Both couplings and unions are relatively short fittings. These two types differ in the fact that unions are easily removable while couplings are designed to be permanent.
Compression fittings typically consist of three distinct components: a nut, body and ferrule (or gasket ring). They are designed for tightening connections using pressure in order to prevent leaks.
Plugs and caps are quite similar in their basic function. Caps are typically attached on a pipe end to stop up the pipe, while plugs are used as a stopper inserted into a pipe end. Both are used in various industrial and residential plumbing applications.
Valves are also considered fittings but are often placed in a separate category due to their flexibility and complexity. In general, valves are used to control fluid and gas flow within a system. Common valve types include gate, butterfly, ball, and globe.

At Blair Supply, we carry high-quality fittings of all shapes, sizes, and materials. Whether you are looking for brass water service fittings for sale or wish to find the best compression fittings for your specific application, don’t hesitate to reach out to Blair Supply Corp.

Are pipe connectors and pipe fittings the same?

In short, yes, pipe fittings are also known as pipe connectors. They are used to attach two pipe sections together or divert or reduce the flow of water in a municipal water system. The exact type of fitting or connector you use will depend on a variety of factors specific to the type of application. Furthermore, there are national sizing standards that should be followed in industrial applications as certain fitting types have openings of different sizes since they are supposed to act as the transition from one pipe size to another.

What is a brass fitting?

While water service fittings come in a variety of materials, brass is certainly one of the most frequently used materials. This is because brass has unique dynamic properties that make it a good fit for a great number of industrial applications. Brass water service fittings are durable, flexible, and highly temperature and corrosion resistant.

Owing to their versatility, are commonly used for carrying chemicals, water, slurries, flammable gasses, and many other substances. You can get brass fittings in many different types and sizes at our warehouses in Avoca, Watertown, and Rochester.

How does brass compression fitting work?

Compression fittings are designed to join sections of tube or pipe together by creating a watertight seal between them. These fittings are known to withstand high pressure and typically consist of three separate components: the nut, sleeve, and body. Compression fittings come in a variety of different materials, with brass being the most common option.

Brass compression water service fittings are used in a great number of applications, including both residential and commercial situations. They are a popular option because they don’t require any soldering, and are relatively easy and quick to install. They are especially useful in situations where occasional removal or disassembly may be necessary for maintenance.
