Handwashing Station Construction Notes

Manifest

primer bulb

this is a rubber bulb that moves liquid in one direction between 2 barbs

about 6 inches between barbs

3-9 ft vinyl tubing

length depends on barrel used

length depends on conduit used

ID should match primer bulb barbs

plastic barrel

PVC conduit, elbows, barbs as needed

depends on barrel used

plywood, plank, 2x4, 2x2, etc. lumber

6 ft rebar x2

hinge eg gate or door

soap dispenser

zip ties

duct tape

strapping

conduit brackets or plumbers tape

screws, other fasteners

chain or cable as needed, lock

Construction

Cut plywood base to size to support barrel, toes, bulb pedal. Mark where toes should go in plywood base.

Drill two holes in plywood base at circumference of barrel for rebar. Drill holes in plywood base for zipties to attach bulb, tubing.

Screw lumber toes to base to laterally support base of barrel and protect pump pedal. Assemble pedal out of plank and hinge and attach to base with hinge toward user. Attach pump to base under hinge with zipties.

If needed, drill holes near top of barrel for chain or cable. Drill hole in barrel lid for input conduit. Screw lumber shelf to barrel lid. Assemble spigot out of conduit and barb. Attach spigot to shelf with brackets and/or zipties.

Place barrel on base, within toes. Hammer rebar into earth through holes in base. Ziptie rebar to shelf. Strap rebar to barrel.

Assemble input conduit, easiest is a length of conduit sawed with a 45 degree end, long enough that it can't fall in the barrel when placed in the hole.

Assemble tubing to pump. Ziptie tubing to base and rebar, routing so that toes protect tubing on base. Assemble outlet tubing to spigot. Place input conduit in hole. Thread tubing through input conduit until it nearly reaches bottom of barrel.

Ziptie and duct tape soap dispenser to rebar.

Prime pump by pouring water down output tubing until pump can be actuated.

Thread chain or cable through holes in barrel. Lock to stationary object.

Notes

Barrel can be remote from pump and spigot or inaccessible, alter base in that case to support pump and spigot.

Input conduit just keeps the input at the bottom of the barrel and discourages people from yanking the tubing out, input conduit can be replaced with weight and a conduit T at end of input tubing.

Design is intended to be cheap, easy to source, annoying to steal or strip, easy to service and replace. A trap at the spigot will make pumping easier. Graywater basin has been eliminated for ease of cleaning, this means that the spigot has to be inconveniently located to keep water away from pumper's foot. This is not our best deployed design but it's cheaper (if barrels are available), easier, and less labor to build.

Notes:

I musta missed some people or counted them twice.  I thought there were 25 people here today.  

A Tuesday wine tasting that rivaled any we have done on a Thursday quickly followed.  Due to threatening storms (they never materialized), we did the wine tasting inside the Barn.  We had 3 Reds, 1 white, 1 rose’, and a large amount of  several brands of Brown liquids.  Nathan shared some expensive cigars with any who were willing (we all liked the odor).  Cheri baked a huge cookie, and Miss Linda produced crackers, cheeses, and mixed nuts.  

Approximately 6 people stayed until almost 8 PM.  The workout was over at 5 PM.  You do the math.  They left when all the booze was gone.

Happy 50th birthday Ed !!!

I will be on a fly fishing sabbatical for the next 10 days.  I’ll be in Idaho and Wyoming on the Snake River.  I have never fly fished.  I have no idea what is expected of me.  I just hope I don’t drown, die of hypothermia (it was snowing there this AM), get eaten by a bear or mountain lion, or get trampled by a moose.  

Robert, Warren G, and Herb (all Level-1′s) have volunteered to coach the scheduled workouts at all the usual times.  You should not miss any workouts but you should notice an up-tick in the quality of the coaching and an improvement in personal interactions.   

The interim coaches don’t have TUMBLR administrative privileges, so this blog will be blank for the next 5 workouts.  The few of you who find this blog entertaining will have to resort to CNN evening news instead.

Complaints of a Service Desk Associate

Once again I have had to deal with a dumb. Had a customer come in looking for a plumbing fitting for his well pump. Fine what ever.

"Sir all brass fittings are in aisle 7 if you need help I can send someone over to help you."

"Nah I'm good thanks."

15 minutes later the customer shows up again. He is walking with our Master Plumber and he is heading toward me.

"Hey we dont carry the angle elbow he needs in store would you please look online."

I can see in my colleagues face that he is ready to snap on this guy.

"Ok what size and angle do you need?"

"3/4 in by 1 in 45 degree elbow."

Now to the average schmuck would see that and say well thats not an obscure or weird request. And it's not it's made in the black steel and the pvcs and the cpvs and the galvanized steel. But this guy wanted Brass.

I looked online and our store does not carry it online either. I proceeded to explain this and the customer went from 0 to 100 in the time it took me to say "dont". He ran up one side of me and down the other. Then he proceeded to say "well what would you know. Your a woman."

Needless to say I directed him to a local plumbing supply store. Who also doesn't have it. Just an FYI.

News flash fucker, if the Home improvment store that I work for doesnt have the product either in our store or online. . . -whispers- It doesn't exists.

Maker forbid you have to go back and reconfigure your fucking project. No stand there and yell because you now look like an idiot.

Types Of Pvc Water Pipe Connectors for Water Supply

Access to clean and safe water is a right that is also a privilege. Not everyone has access to the piped supply of water and where it is available, it is of the utmost importance to choose pipes which can provide durable efficiency without getting damaged. When it comes to installing pipelines for water supply, one of the most preferred materials is polyvinyl chloride or PVC. Known for their different advantageous properties, PVC pipes and fittings are easy to install and provide leakproof efficiency. In the installation of water supply pipelines, different types of fittings are utilized to ensure last-mile connectivity to every user. Here are some of the common types of PVC fittings used for water supply connections:

1. Tee: As the name suggests, the tee fitting is shaped like the English alphabet T and has three ends, with two ends parallel and the third at a 90-degree angle to the parallel line. This is generally used to split a single line into two separate branches or for connecting two individual lines and draw them into a single line.

2. Elbow: The elbow fitting is used to bend a pipeline at an angle. Depending on the need for bending the pipe network, elbow-type PVC water pipe connectors are available in 90 degree and 45 degree versions. Other types of elbows with 120 degree and 30 degree are also available but are far more sparsely used. However, different manufacturers may also make available elbows for bends in different angles that may not meet the standards.

3. Cross: The cross is a water pipe fitting which has four outlets situated crosswise to each other. This type of fitting is mainly used for connecting four of the best quality PVC pipes and dividing the pipe supply into four lines. These types if fittings an add structural integrity to the entire network by balancing the flow.

4. Coupling: Perhaps the most common type of PVC water pipe fittings is the coupling or union as it is sometimes called. This is a simple tube-shaped fitting of a short length, often used to connect two pipes in a straight line. This fitting may also provide stability to pipes joined together. The connections are also temporary in nature as they can be easily taken apart when no longer required.

How to connect PVC to Cast Iron

Hi there,

I'm in process of partially replacing (I will do another post about the process) cast iron sewer pipes with PVC pipes in my newly bought house. The fun is deep because in my case (the split level built somewhere in 195x) not just a cast iron, it's cast iron buried under 6' concrete. Previous owners renovated a bathroom on ground level and made the following connection to the cast iron (see images attached).

I'm no plumber but from what I read it doesn't seem to be in accordance with the code https://epubs.iapmo.org/NSPC/NJ2018/index.html (I'm from NJ BTW).

The question is - what would be the correct way to handle it considering the whole 4" pipe is replaced with PVC? So far I see the proper way to do the connection as 4" wye with 3" side branch that lays horizontally (not vertically as on the photo) and two 3" 45-degree elbows. I don't see how I could fit that construction on the side though.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

I. What are Electrical Conduit Fittings?

Electrical conduit fittings are essential components used in electrical systems to protect and route electrical wiring. They serve as a protective housing for wires, cables, and other electrical components, safeguarding them from damage, moisture, and external factors that may pose a risk. Additionally, electrical conduit fittings provide a neat and organized appearance to electrical installations, making maintenance and repairs easier.

II. Types of Electrical Conduit Fittings

1. Conduit Pipes: 

Conduit pipes are the primary component of electrical conduit systems. They are available in various materials such as metal (rigid steel or aluminum) and non-metal (PVC or fiberglass). Conduit pipes come in different diameters to accommodate different wire sizes and are available in standard lengths or can be cut to custom lengths as needed.

2. Connectors: 

Connectors are used to join two conduit pipes together, creating a secure and reliable connection. Common types of connectors include threaded connectors, compression connectors, and set-screw connectors. Each type has its unique features and advantages, so choosing the right connector depends on the specific application and conduit type.

3. Couplings: 

Couplings are similar to connectors but are primarily used to extend conduit pipes. They provide a seamless connection between two conduit sections, allowing for a continuous conduit run. Like connectors, couplings come in various types, such as threaded couplings, compression couplings, and clamp-style couplings.

4. Elbows: 

Elbows are used to change the direction of a conduit system, particularly around corners or obstacles. They are available in different angles, commonly 90 degrees and 45 degrees, to facilitate smooth and efficient wire routing. Elbows can be rigid or flexible, depending on the conduit material.

5. Conduit Bodies: 

Conduit bodies, also known as junction boxes, are used to provide access points for wire pulling, maintenance, and future expansion. They come with removable covers, allowing easy access to the wires inside. Conduit bodies are available in various shapes, such as T-shaped, L-shaped, and straight, to suit different installation requirements.

III. Installation Process

Proper installation of electrical conduit fittings is crucial to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install electrical conduit fittings:

The Ultimate Guide To Pvc Plumbing Fittings

When it comes to plumbing installations, the best pipe material will ensure reliable performance year after year. Thermoplastic pipes like polyvinyl chloride, or PVC as they are commonly called, are increasingly being chosen for plumbing installations on account of their durability and longer service life. With PVC pipes, the joints are made with mechanical couplings or connectors which are easy to fit and provide secure, leakproof connections. Here is your ultimate guide to understanding the different types of PVC fittings:

1. Tee Joints: One of the most common types of PVC plumbing fittings are the tee joints. These are, as the name suggests, shaped as the alphabet ‘T’ and are used to either divert a single line into two lines or connect two separate lines into a single line. Tees can have socket or threaded ends. 

2. Elbows: In order to bend a pipeline in PVC pipe plumbing network, a fitting known as the elbow can be used. The elbow type PVC fitting is available for 45- and 90-degree bends and some manufacturers also make available bends of 120 and 30 degrees. This type of fitting is used to create a bend in the pipe network. These can be either in the form of corner elbows or side elbows, with the former having three ends. 

3. Crosses: If one wants to connect four different pipelines together, cross type PVC plumbing fittings are the best choice. With four ends, the cross is shaped like an ‘X’ or a plus sign and is used to connect either two pipelines or three into a single outlet or divert a single or two inlets into two outlets. These types of fittings also come with threaded or socket type joints. 

4. Bushings: When the plastic pipes and fittings in the plumbing network need reducing, the fittings known as bushings are used. These bushings are focused in connecting pipes of different diameters by reducing the fitting size instead of the pipes.

5. Caps and plugs: In order to stop the flow of water at an end of the pipe, fittings known as caps and plugs are used in PVC pipes. These can be attached and removed as per requirement. Caps can either go around the pipe or outside. These may also be available with thread or socket joints.

 Differences between Schedule 40/80 Clear PVC Pipe Fittings

 The schedule is abbreviated as Sch and is called the pipe table number. The transparent pipe fittings table number is the ratio of the clear plastic PVC pipe fittings design pressure to the allowable stress of the material at the design temperature multiplied by 1000 and rounded. That is Sch＝P/[σ]t×1000. ANSI B36.10 wall thickness grade: Sch10, Sch20, Sch30, Sch40, Sch60, Sch80, Sch100, Sch120, Sch140, Sch160 ten grades. The difference between schedule 40 clear PVC pipe and clear PVC pipe schedule 80 is the thickness, schedule 80 is thicker than schedule 40.

 Advantages of Clear PVC Fitting

 1

Good physical and chemical properties. The clear PVC pipe and fittings have corrosion resistance, high impact strength and low fluid resistance (the flow rate is 30% higher than that of cast iron pipes of the same diameter). Clear PVC pipe and fittings are resistant to aging and has a long service life.

 2

Lightweight and practical, easy to install. The weight is only 1/7 of the cast iron pipe of the same caliber, which can greatly accelerate the progress of the project and reduce the construction cost.

 3

The inner wall of clear PVC pipe fittings is smooth, the drainage is smooth, and the pipeline is not easy to be blocked. The inspection port has a unique design and is easy to operate without any tools.

 4

Save construction costs. The overall cost of clear plastic pipe fittings is lower than that of using cast iron pipes of the same specification, and the maintenance cost is also lower.

Types of PVC Pipe Connectors for Making Diversions

In the pipe networks for plumbing and sanitation in homes and other buildings, polyvinyl chloride pipes are widely used. To secure long pipe networks, the PVC pipes are joined with the help of PVC fittings or connectors which are of different types. For different purposes, different types of PVC fittings are used, and so is the case for making diversions in the connections. Following are the different types of PVC pipe connectors which are used for making diversions in the pipe network for plumbing:

1. Crosses: Four way connectors are known as crosses. Generally, insert type of crosses are used to ensure the joint is accurate and does not slip. In the cross-type fitting, also known as the X-type fitting, three connections may supply input for one output, two inputs may be combined into two outputs, one input may be branched out into three output channels as the need may be.

2. Tees: As the name suggests, these types of fittings are shaped like the English alphabet ‘T’ and can be of compression or insert type. The T shape of this PVC pipe connector allows for the connection to be diverted into two breakouts or channels.

3. Elbows: When pipe networks are to be bent, connectors known as elbows are used. Elbows may be of both compression and insert type and can have slip or threaded ends. Depending on the angle at which the bend is desired, the appropriate elbow may be used, and range from 45-degree to 122 degrees. If along with the diversion, pipes of different diameters are to be adjusted together, a reducing elbow may be used, which is used to

4. Y-type: In the Y-type sanitary fittings of PVC, the connection of two pipes may be brought together into a single outlet or one pipe connection may be diverted into two separate channels.

5. Valves: These types of fittings are generally used to control the flow of water through the pipe network. Valves may be used to switch on and switch off the water flow or divert the connection from one system into another while closing off another in the case that multiple networks are joined to the same system.

Pipe Fittings

This chapter presents various types of pipe fittings. Of all the fittings, the elbow is the one most often used. Simply put, the elbow, or ell, is used when a pipe changes direction. Elbows can turn up, down, left, right, or any angle in between. When one finds it necessary to draw a 90° elbow or calculate how much space it will occupy in a routing configuration, knowing its length becomes essential. An elbow's length is commonly referred to as the center-to-end dimension and is measured from the centerpoint of its radius to the end of either opening. Dimensional sizes of fittings are typically provided by the manufacturer of the fitting. Manufacturers issue dimensioning charts containing lengths for a particular fitting. Another elbow that may be used under certain circumstances and with permission from the customer is the 90° short-radius elbow. The 90° short-radius ell makes a much sharper turn than does the long-radius ell.

Emissions from Pipe Fittings and Gaskets

Threaded pipe fittings in the seal flush line can be significant leak sources, with readings above 1,000 ppm.4,17 Similar emission levels may be measured near the gasket region on the seal chamber face. Any leakage from these areas may drift into the emission measurement area for the mechanical seal. The mechanical seal may then be erroneously implicated as a leaker. It should be standard practice to sniff nearby hydraulic fittings and the flange gasket area if excessive VOC concentrations are detected adjacent to the mechanical seal.

Leak-tight threaded pipe fittings can be more easily attained using anaerobic paste-type sealants rather than PTFE tape. The seal chamber face must be smooth to be emission tight. Gaskets and O-rings must be free of nicks and scratches.

32.16.2 Thermoplastic Fittings Manufacturing

Thermoplastic pipe fittings may be injection-molded, fabricated, rotomolded, or thermoformed. Injection-molded fittings are generally made in sizes through 12-in. nominal diameter. Typical molded fittings are tees, 45-degree and 90-degree elbows, reducers, couplings, caps, flange adapters, stub ends, branch saddles, service saddles, and self-tapping saddle tees. Electrofusion couplings and fittings are either made by injection molding or machined from pipe stock. Electrofusion fittings and couplings are made with a coil-like integral heating element incorporated into the fitting. Joining with other fittings uses an electrical fusion device that provides electricity into the heating element, which melts the adjacent thermoplastic material and creates a fusion-welded joint.

Larger-diameter fittings exceed the capabilities of injection molding and are typically fabricated. Rotomolding is used for the manufacture of polyethylene large-diameter (up to 60 in.) and custom fittings for polyethylene corrugated drainage piping applications.

Thermoformed fittings are made by heating a section of pipe and then using a forming tool to reshape the heated area. Examples of thermoformed fittings are sweep elbows, swaged reducers, and forged stub ends. Some polyethylene corrugated pipe fittings and appurtenances are also thermoformed.

All proprietary joints shall be made in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Care shall be taken to establish satisfactory jointing techniques for all water service pipework. When making joints by welding, brazing, or soldering, precautions shall be taken to avoid the risk of fire. All burrs shall be removed from the ends of pipes and any jointing materials used shall be prevented from entering the waterways. All piping and fittings shall be cleaned internally and free from particles of sand, soil, metal filings, and chips, etc.

8.19.3 Cast iron pipes

Flexible mechanical joints shall be made in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

For molten lead joints, the spigot and socket shall be centered with rings of dry yarn caulked tightly into the bottom of the spigot to prevent the entry of lead into the bore of the pipe and to prevent contact of lead with the water.

Synthetic yarns that do not promote the growth of bacteria shall be used to prevent contamination of the water. The remainder of the joint space shall be filled with molten lead (taking care that no dross enters the joint), cold wire, strip, or spun lead (lead wool). The joint shall be caulked to a smooth finish with pneumatic tools or a hand hammer of mass not less than 1.5 kg. When working with spun lead, caulking tools shall be of a thickness to fill the joint space, ensuring thorough consolidation of the material to the full depth of the socket.

Lead joints shall be finished about 3 mm inside the face of the socket.

Flange joints shall be made with screwed or cast on flanges.

8.19.4 Steel pipes

Welded joints shall not be used where a protective lining would be damaged by heat, or where the pipework is employed as a primary circulation to an indirect hot water heating system.

Screwed joints in steel piping shall be made with screwed socket joints using wrought iron, steel, or malleable double crimping fitting. A thread filler shall be used. Exposed threads left after jointing shall be painted or, where installed underground, thickly coated with bituminous or other suitable corrosion preventative agent.

Flange joints shall be made with screwed or welded flanges of steel or cast iron using jointing rings and, if necessary, a suitable jointing paste. The nuts shall be carefully tightened, in opposite pairs, until the jointing ring is sufficiently compressed between the flanges for a watertight joint.

8.19.5 Unplasticized PVC pipes

8.19.5.1 Mechanical joints

Mechanical joints in unplasticized PVC piping of sizes 2 and upwards shall be made in accordance with BS4346: Part 2, by the use of push-fit integral elastomeric sealing rings which are compressed when the plain ended pipes are inserted into the adjoining sockets. The plain pipe ends shall be chamfered and the surfaces cleaned and lubricated.

The chamfered pipe end shall be inserted fully into the adjoining socket (except where provision is to be made for expansion), or as far as any locating mark put on the spigot end by the manufacturer. The sealing rings shall comply with BS2494.

8.19.5.2 Compression joints

Compression joints shall only be used with unplasticized PVC piping of size 2 and smaller. The joints shall be of the nonmanipulative type. Care shall be taken to avoid overtightening.

8.19.5.3 Solvent cement welded joints

Solvent cement welded joints in unplasticized PVC piping shall be made using solvent cement complying with BS4346: Part 3 recommended by the manufacturer of the pipe. The dimensions of the spigots and sockets shall comply with BSEN1452: Part 1–5.

Joints may also be made using integral sockets formed in the pipes and solvent cemented.

8.19.5.4 Flanged joints

Flanged joints used for connections to valves and fittings shall use full-face flanges or stub flanges, both with corrosion resistant or immune backing rings and bolting.

8.19.5.5 Polyethylene pipes

Mechanical joints shall be either plastics or metal proprietary compression fittings, for example, brass, gunmetal, or malleable iron. These shall include insert liners to support the bore of the pipe except where the manufacturer of the fitting instructs otherwise.

To ensure satisfactory jointing of the materials from which the pipe and transition elbow are made compatibility shall be established. The manufacturer’s instructions shall be carefully followed.

No attempt shall be made to joint polyethylene piping by solvent cement welding.

Large pipe fittings and valve components must be press forged and will require extensive machining. Whereas small parts such as the flange previously described can be quickly heated and cooled, and given optimum process conditions, should exhibit microstructure and properties similar to pipe and tube, the properties of large forgings will be location and thickness dependent. While no large forged part has yet been made from 740H, the properties of a solution-annealed, water-quenched and aged 343-mm-diameter bar shown in Table 14.2 are informative. Yield strength near the surface is comparable to that of thin wall tube, but yield strength at the bar center, while meeting ASME minimum, is significantly lower. Ductility and toughness were good. A hardness traverse taken on the as quenched bar showed VHN 170 at the surface and VHN 290 at the center. This is indicative of strong auto-aging in the bar center. Because the γ′ that forms on slow cooling is relatively coarse, after the final aging treatment, the bar center will have lower strength than the surface. The microstructure and creep strength at the center of the bar has not been evaluated.

A calculated continuous cooling transformation diagram for alloy 740H is shown in Fig. 14.26. This diagram supports the notion that significant γ′ hardening will occur even during water quenching of a large forging. A cooling simulation was conducted for the bar heat treatment using DEFORM software [49]. The cooling rate at a depth of 25 mm was 315°C/min and at the bar center was 30°C/min. Based on the calculated CCT diagram, there should be about 10% γ′ in the center and no γ′ at the surface. That is consistent with the experimental results.

Filament-wound pipe fittings, such as elbows and tees have been used in the chemical, and oil industry since the 1980s.9 Traditionally, composite pipe fittings were produced manually or semi-manually, but the development of CNC winders with six or more axes has allowed automated production of pipe fittings since the 1990s. The efficiency of these advanced machines depends on methods and software to determine winding patterns and perform fabrication of the complex shape within manufacturing specifications. Winding pattern generation is particularly challenging since a substantial amount of data storage/processing is required to meet manufacturing requirements (e.g., fiber tension and full-coverage) of non-axisymmetric patterns, which are required for filament-wound elbows or tees.72 On the other hand, it is worth noting that CAM software capability, rather than hardware, is considered the limiting factor for improving the performance of automated winders of non-axisymmetric parts. Consequently, general-purpose filament winding systems for pipe fittings are currently deemed impractical due to the lack of universal mathematical models and design software for CAM.9,73 Although some progress has been made to determine closed-form solutions for efficient winding patterns on specific shapes, such as elbows,74,75 most CAM systems still implement approximate methods to design and produce specific pipe fitting geometries.73 An illustration of a software-generated winding pattern, and the resulting wound elbow, is included in Fig. 11.75

Leaking valves and pipe fittings are the next concern when pressure is dropping during a test. Test sections should be isolated at pipeline block valves by using slip blinds to insure no leakage. If the test section cannot be blinded but the valves are double blocked instead, the operator must measure pressure increase in the adjacent section between the double-blocked valves to insure a tight seal exists. You need to be careful when using a thin “fire blind” at an isolation valve because under pressure the thin blind will deform and the blind cannot be removed without removing the entire valve. This often requires calling in vacuum trucks to remove product on the opposite side of the test valve being removed.

So, leakage through valves and fittings jeopardizes the chances for a successful test and may lead to data that cannot be correlated, and in that situation, the pipeline must be retested.

Tree piping is defined as all pipe, fittings, or pressure conduits, excluding valves and chokes, from the vertical bores of the tree to the flowline connections. The piping may be used for production, pigging, monitoring, injection, servicing, or testing of the subsea tree. Inboard tree piping is upstream of the first tree wing valves. Outboard tree piping is downstream of the first tree wing valve and upstream of the flowline connector.

Tree piping is normally designed in accordance with ASME B31.3. The guidelines in the API specifications are general and, in many cases, open to interpretation. It is up to the manufacturer to apply his engineering judgment.

Benefits of Using Brass Fittings

What are Brass Fittings Used For?

Brass is one of the most commonly used materials for making brass pipe fittings. The zinc and copper alloy has been used for centuries because of its unique properties that make it a good choice for a variety of uses. Of course, in more recent history and modern times, the most common use for brass is in pipes and fittings used in plumbing. Brass pipe fittings are often the choice of plumbers and other construction professionals because of its dynamic properties. It is more durable and flexible than other material options and resistant to corrosion.

Brass hose barb fittings are typically used for carrying water, chemicals, flammable gases, slurries, and other plumbing substances. Pipe fittings made of brass come in a wide range of shapes and thread sizes to connect, adapt, or control any liquid or gas in pipes.

Besides plumbing, brass fittings are also used for some automotive applications, such as in air brakes, hose ends, and fuel line valves. You may also find brass fittings in ballcock adapters, refrigerator cooler fittings, and compression fittings.

Why are Brass Fittings Used?

The effectiveness of brass as the material for pipe fittings provides you with safe and durable components within your plumbing system. While they can be a bit more expensive than some other types of fittings, brass fittings are worth the extra cash. Here are five reasons why you should use brass fittings for your next plumbing project:

1. They are durable - Brass Compression Fittings have been used in both residential and industrial plumbing because it is great for heavy-duty use and it stays in good condition for years. When you have a plumbing project that needs to have a long lifespan, brass is a good choice because it lasts for a long time without disintegrating or even cracking. It’s also perfect for use in hot water supply lines.

2. They can withstand high temperatures - As the best fitting material for distributing hot water, brass provides exceptional conductivity and improves the efficiency of the distribution system. In fact, brass fittings can tolerate much higher temperatures than fittings made of other materials, up to the point of being fire resistant.

3. They are malleable - You may find that you need to mold or shape a fitting to make it work in specific areas. If so, then a brass fitting is the ideal choice. Brass is a malleable metal – much more so than iron or steel. That makes brass fittings a very flexible option for many tight plumbing spots.

4. They are corrosion resistant - Brass doesn’t rust and it is highly resistant to corrosion. Rust and corrosion rapidly speed up the natural wear and tear process on the fitting, so when you are looking for long-lasting fittings, brass is the best material for the job.

5. They are versatile - You can find brass fittings in all types and sizes, so you can always find just what you need for your specific plumbing projects.

There are so many different types of brass brass push on hose barb that you can use, that's what makes them so versatile. Here are a few of the most common ones:

- Pipe couplings: used to connect pipes of the same size (unless it’s a reducing coupler, where the pipes are different sizes)

- Pipe adaptors: used to change the connection type (male or female) at the end of a pipe

- Pipe nipples: typically used to connect two fittings

- Pipe tees: in the shape of a “T”, used when more than one branch is required of a water supply

- Pipe elbows: used to change the direction of flow between pipes

- Pipe unions: used in the same manner as couplings

- Pipe plugs: used to close pipes

- Pipe wyes: in the shape of a "Y", used to join pipes at a 45-degree angle

That’s not an exhaustive list, there are various other types of brass fittings that are ideal for just about every need you can think of. Additionally, you can find brass fittings in a range of sizes - from smaller sizes that are perfect for residential jobs to larger sizes that are used for industrial applications.

What are Some of the Alternatives to Brass Fittings?

While brass fittings are ideal for many uses, such as garden hose fitting, there are some alternatives that can be used in some situations. Some of the most common alternatives to brass fittings are copper, PVC, CPVC, PEX, steel, and cast iron.

Copper fittings are most commonly used in residential water systems and HVAC refrigerant lines. They are used for both hot and cold-water applications.

PVC (polyvinyl chloride) fittings are the most common type of plastic fittings, and they come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They are typically only used for cold water applications.

CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) fittings are used for both hot and cold-water applications in residential plumbing.

Steel fittings are used for cold and hot water applications and are strong and durable with a high heat resistance. However, they are prone to rusting.

Black iron fittings are typically used for drain and waste pipes. Black iron fittings are an improvement over cast iron due to its improved corrosion resistance.

Takeaway

Brass pipe fittings are perfect for many residential and industrial plumbing needs. While they do tend to cost a bit more, they are not too significantly more expensive than other options. Their durability, dependability, and quality make brass fittings a wise investment for the few extra dollars. Next, check out our post that helps you determine which type of piping you should use to go with your fittings.

Pressure peaks in a hydraulics can break pressure sensors and cause damages far higher than the price of a humble pressure snubber that could have prevented them. So, what are they and when should they be used?

Sometimes small oversights such as a sudden valve opening or closing can cascade into larger problems, creating pump ripple or fluid hammer. These problems “confuse” pressure sensors so that signals become noisy, cycle life is reduced and, in some cases, there are catastrophic failures. All these headaches and unforeseen costs can be avoided with a simple pressure snubber to limit the amplitude of pressure transients.
