Why Proper Fitting Selection Works for Piping Assemblies

Fitting dimensions follow standardized schedules that match pipe wall thickness and outside diameter, ensuring consistent thread engagement and proper gasket compression in sealed joints. Elbows change flow direction while minimizing pressure drop, tees create branch connections for distribution systems, and reducers transition between different pipe sizes without flow turbulence that accelerates wear. Unions allow piping sections to be disassembled without cutting, enabling equipment removal and component replacement in systems that require periodic maintenance or reconfiguration.


After installation with correctly specified fittings, piping systems hold pressure without leaks at threaded or welded joints, flow rates remain consistent through directional changes, and connections stay sealed through thermal expansion cycles. Galvanized fittings resist corrosion in potable water systems, black iron serves gas and compressed air distribution, and stainless steel handles corrosive or high-purity fluids in industrial process applications.


Domestic fittings manufactured to ASTM standards provide documented material certifications and traceability, while imported options offer cost savings in non-critical applications where budget constraints drive material selection. Both options stock common sizes and configurations for immediate project needs, with specialty fittings ordered as required for unusual dimensions or material specifications.

Questions Before Starting Your Project

Plumbers and contractors working on residential and industrial installations in Richland often ask about fitting compatibility, material selection, and pressure ratings before assembling piping systems.

  • What is the difference between Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 fittings?

    Schedule 80 fittings have thicker walls and higher pressure ratings than Schedule 40, making them suitable for high-pressure applications or where impact damage risk requires extra material strength.

  • Can I mix galvanized and black iron fittings in the same system?

    Mixing is possible but not recommended in most scenarios- situations and usages vary, so please contact us to get more information!

  • How do I determine thread type for pipe fittings?

    Most pipe fittings use NPT (National Pipe Taper) threads that seal by wedging together, while some hydraulic and specialty applications use NPTF or parallel threads requiring different sealing methods.

  • Why do brass fittings cost more than steel?

    Brass offers superior corrosion resistance in potable water systems and machines more easily during manufacturing, resulting in higher material and production costs compared to carbon steel fittings.

  • Are imported fittings acceptable for code-compliance in Richland?

    Code compliance depends on the application and local inspector requirements, with domestic fittings typically providing documented certifications that simplify approval, while imported options may require additional documentation or testing.
