Product Description
A union is a threaded fitting which allows the pipe work to be separated and reconnected without any horizontal movement in the pipe. It can be a standalone pipe fitting connecting two pieces of pipe, or an integral part of another fitting (such as a ball valve) which allows it to be separated.Exceptional Durability and Corrosion ResistanceCrafted from premium brass and protected by a nickel-plated finish, these union fittings deliver remarkable resistance to corrosion, ensuring longevity even in challenging environments. Their robust construction allows them to withstand high pressures and varying temperatures, making them suitable for a wide array of industrial and plumbing systems.
Simple and Reliable InstallationEngineered for threaded male-to-female screw-on connections, these fittings are remarkably easy to install and uninstall, requiring no specialized tools. The straightforward design encourages quick set-up or replacement, minimizing system downtime and supporting ongoing maintenance or adjustments as needed.
Versatile Applications Across Media and IndustriesThanks to their excellent sealing properties and material durability, these union fittings are suitable for connecting pipes in systems handling water, air, oil, or gas. Tailored for both industrial and plumbing use, their flexibility applies to various standards (DIN, ASTM, ISO), meeting global requirements and application needs.
FAQ's of Union Fitting:
Q: How are brass union fittings installed in a piping system?
A: Brass union fittings are designed for screw-on installation, allowing threaded male and female connections. Simply align the threads and tighten by hand or with a suitable wrench; this secure, metal-to-metal sealing process does not require specialized tools and ensures a leak-proof joint.
Q: What are the main benefits of using a nickel-plated brass union fitting?
A: Nickel plating enhances the brass fitting's corrosion resistance and durability, particularly in harsh environments. It also provides a smooth, attractive finish, supports repeated reuse, and maintains reliable performance throughout its long operational life.
Q: When should I use this union fitting in my application?
A: Use this union fitting when you require a robust, leak-proof connection for water, air, oil, or gas systems, especially if system disassembly or maintenance is expected. It's ideal where longevity, durability under pressure (up to 25 bar), and corrosion resistance are critical.
Q: Where can these union fittings be applied effectively?
A: They are suitable for a variety of settings including industrial facilities, plumbing installations, heating and cooling systems, and any pipework requiring secure, removable joints for maintenance or expansion.
Q: What is the process for ordering these fittings from the manufacturer?
A: To order, ensure your minimum quantity is at least 100 pieces. Specify diameter, length, thread type (BSP/NPT), and any packaging preferences. Orders are shipped from India, and fittings are provided in secure box packaging or as required.
Q: How does the union fitting provide leak-proof performance?
A: The fitting utilizes a precise metal-to-metal sealing mechanism combined with accurate machining tolerance (0.05 mm), resulting in a tightly sealed, leak-resistant connection even under high pressure (up to PN25/25 bar).
