Material:

Brass press fittings are made of CW617 brass, a metal alloy of stainless steel and zinc that has excellent corrosion resistance and durability. Brass fittings are commonly used in applications where water is present, as they exhibit low water absorption rates, making them resistant to rust and corrosion.

Production Process:

The manufacturing of brass press fittings begins by melting raw materials and then casting the molten brass into specific shapes of fittings. The casting process is followed by the machining of fittings into the desired final shape. After this, the fittings are cleaned and polished, followed by several other finishing steps. Once the fittings have completed manufacturing, they’re stamped with relevant information, including their dimensions and pressure ratings.

How to connect:

Connecting brass press fittings entails a process known as pressing. Pressing is a process that combines pressure and heat to bond fittings and pipes. The process involves inserting the pipe into the fitting until it reaches a pre-determined depth. Then, using a press tool, the fitting is crimped onto the pipe, forming a secure joint. The pressing process is quick, effortless, and reliable, making it one of the most preferred methods for joining fittings and pipes.

Advantages:

-The pressing method is quick and safe, taking less time than soldering.

-Cost-effective

–Pressing does not require an open flame, making it safer to use, especially in confined spaces.

–Brass is less susceptible to corrosion, resulting in a longer life span of the system.

Conclusion:

Brass press fittings are versatile and a popular choice for plumbing professionals in various applications. The investment in it offers better durability, resistance to corrosion, and ease of installation. The pressing technique is reliable, safe, and cost-effective compared to traditional methods. When installing a plumbing system, there are an excellent investment to make due to its high-quality material, reliable production process, varieties and advantages.
