When it comes to making connections, flexible hoses are the way to go. Custom, flexible hoses can be easily created for almost any purpose from high pressure connections to high temperature solutions. Of course, hoses come in a variety of materials, but the fittings for them are much more limited. Common hose fittings are made from iron, steel, brass, bronze and stainless steel. Each of these materials has their uses, but Stainless Steel Pipe Fittings are some of the best. This is because stainless is an incredibly durable metal with a limited corrosion factor. Plus, stainless steel can handle a large variation in temperature ranges making it ideal for many applications. Along with these properties are the ability to handle large ranges of pressures. Softer metals such as copper or brass can easily strip away fitting threads under high pressure loads, but stainless remains strong.
Stainless steel pipe fittings come in a wide assortment of types and shapes. For instance, you can get male pipe to female swivel fittings, female pipe to female pipe swivel, dual sided male pipe, male nipple fittings, pipe caps, pipe plugs and many more. Fittings can come in several angles including ninety degrees male to female pipe swivel or forty five degree male pipe to female swivel. There are also ninety and forty five degrees male to male fittings and female to female fittings. Along with the single pipe designs are male pipe tees, male to female tees and all female tees. For applications where o-rings are required there are many of the same fitting styles available.
Not every application has a stock fitting or hose available. This is where companies like Business Name come into their own. Along with standard fittings and hoses, they can create custom hoses for almost any situation. This is important when your truck or equipment is down. Equipment that isn’t operating costs you more than just the repairs. The lost time from failed equipment results in lost profits. Even worse, your broken equipment can cost you customers. This is why it pays to have a hose and fitting company you can rely on.
