Low-Pressure Stainless Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings
Use these fittings in a low-pressure pipe line.
Fittings that meet ANSI/MSS SP-114 adhere to high-quality standards for heat treating, material thickness, and marking. 304 stainless steel fittings have very good corrosion resistance. 316 stainless steel fittings have excellent corrosion resistance.
Union connectors separate into three pieces so you can access your line without unthreading pipe connections.

Precision Extreme-Pressure Stainless Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings
Made to tighter tolerances than other stainless steel pipe fittings, these are also known as instrumentation fittings. The male threads are rolled for extra strength in extreme-pressure applications. Fittings are commonly used to connect equipment in gas and hydraulic fluid lines. They are 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance.
BSPP male threads have a gasket and washer to prevent leaks.

Low-Pressure Plated Brass Threaded Pipe Fittings
Used in low-pressure pipe lines, these brass fittings have a plating that makes them shiny and improves corrosion resistance.
Chrome-plated brass fittings are shinier and withstand corrosion better than nickel-plated brass fittings.

Compact Extreme-Pressure Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings
These fittings are strong enough to handle extreme pressures, yet small enough to fit into cramped spaces. They are galvanized and zinc-plated steel, which have better corrosion resistance than plain steel fittings. BSPP and metric male threads have either a gasket, or a gasket and washer, to prevent leaks.
