How to Identify and Measure Fittings

Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

For Use With:
304 Stainless Steel: Air, Ethylene Glycol, Propylene Glycol, Water, Diesel Fuel, Fuel Oil
316 Stainless Steel: Drinking Water, Isopropyl Alcohol, Nitric Acid (10%), Phosphoric Acid (25%), Deionized Water, Anhydrous Ammonia
Maximum Pressure:
304 Stainless Steel: 125 psi @ 72° F
316 Stainless Steel: 200 psi @ 72° F
Specifications Met:
304 Stainless Steel: ASME B31.1, ASME B31.3, ASME B31.9
316 Stainless Steel: ASME B31.1, ASME B31.3, ASME B31.9, NSF/ANSI 61, NSF/ANSI 372
O-Ring Material:
304 Stainless Steel: Fluoroelastomer Rubber
316 Stainless Steel: EPDM Rubber
Pipe Nipples and Pipe: Use Schedule 10, 40 Stainless Steel
Flanges: Use Class 150 Stainless Steel

Press these fittings onto stainless steel pipe using a crimping tool for a permanent, leak-tight connection that's faster than threading or welding and doesn't require heat. Fittings have an internal stainless steel gripping ring and rubber O-ring that create a seal when crimped. They are designed to leak if fittings have not been crimped; a colored dot marks the leak path so it's easy to spot unsealed connections. These fittings are comparable to Viega MegaPress fittings.

Fittings meet ANSI/ASME B31 code requirements for use in pressure piping systems.

304 stainless steel fittings resist corrosion from frequent exposure to water and fuels. They are often used for water processing lines, heating and cooling systems, and fuel lines.

316 stainless steel fittings stand up to harsh environments with constant exposure to chemical solutions. They meet NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for use with drinking water, and are often found on water and chemical processing lines in corrosive environments.

Crimping Tools

Crimping Tool

Crimping tools seal fittings in less than five seconds. These tools are cordless, so you can take them to any job. Connect the jaw or ring that matches your pipe size to these tools, then pull the trigger to crimp the fitting. The pivoting head lets you access connections from any angle.

Jaw and Ring Sets

Jaw and Ring Set

Jaw and ring sets include three jaws, three rings, and one ring actuator jaw. Jaws are for pipe sizes 1/2 to 1; they fit directly into the crimping tool. Rings are for pipe sizes 1 1/4 to 2; clip the ring around the fitting and use the ring actuator jaw and crimping tool to press the open ends together.

Crimp these fittings onto steel pipe to form a tightly sealed connection that’s faster than threading or welding and doesn’t require heat. An internal gripping ring and rubber O-ring create a secure seal when crimped. They are designed to leak if fittings have not been crimped; a colored dot marks the leak path so it's easy to spot unsealed connections. These steel fittings are coated in zinc-nickel to resist corrosion, but will rust if frequently exposed to saltwater or harsh chemicals. They are comparable to Viega MegaPress steel fittings.

Fittings meet ANSI/ASME B31 code requirements for use in pressure piping systems.

Fittings with an EPDM rubber O-ring are often used for water processing lines, fire sprinklers, and heating and cooling systems. EPDM rubber won’t degrade when exposed to water, ethylene glycol, and propylene glycol. These fittings meet UL 213 and FM 1920 standards for use in fire protection systems.

Buna-N rubber O-rings hold up to natural gas, propane, diesel fuel, lubricants, and other oils. Fittings with these O-rings are often used in fuel gas systems and air lines. They meet the ANSI LC4/CSA 6.32 standard for fuel gas systems and comply with the International Fuel Gas Code.
