Stainless steel threaded fittings
What are the different fittings used for?
A plant or water supply network is an assembly of pipe and fluid management devices. They have to be connected and tight. That is the role of fittings. There are a wide variety of fittings in their shapes and connections.
- The nipple is a tubular piece in which both ends are male threads. On the opposite, the socket holds two female threaded ends. They allow the connection of two same-diameter elements.
- The reducer (reducing socket or reducing bush) connects pipes of different diameters, whereas 3-piece union is used to fit pipes with varying end connections.
- The elbow is useful for connecting pipes at curved angles.
- Tee, thanks to its T shape is used to assemble three pipes.

Benefits and applications
Stainless steel threaded fittings are cost-effective thanks to their high resistance to corrosion, temperature and pressure, giving them a long life. They need low maintenance and are easy to clean. These fittings are versatile, being usable indoors and outdoors. They are often used in buildings and industrial processes to convey hot water, gas, oil, compressed air and chemicals. More generally, they are suitable for all common liquids from group 1 and fluids from group 2.
