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.

Low-Pressure Stainless Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings
Use these fittings in a low-pressure pipe line. 304 stainless steel fittings have very good corrosion resistance.
Locknuts thread onto the male end of a fitting to provide extra holding power so the fitting won’t loosen from vibration. Locknuts that meet DIN 431 comply with international standards for pipe fitting locknut dimensions.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads and NPSL (National Pipe Straight Locknut) threads are compatible with NPT threads.

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.

Plastic Pipe Fittings for Oil
Made of corrosion-resistant plastic, these fittings won’t deteriorate when used in oil applications. They also have high strength and impact resistance. Apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant to the male threads to prevent leaks. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic threaded connections. When making a threaded connection be careful not to overtighten the threads. To prevent cracks and leaks, finger tighten the fitting, then wrench-tighten one to two turns.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.

Push-to-Connect Tube Fittings for Drinking Water
- Temperature Range: 35° to 150° F
- Tubing: See table
- Specifications Met: NSF/ANSI 61
Made of moisture-resistant acetal, these fittings won't absorb water and lose strength, even in high-humidity environments. Also known as instant fittings, they connect to tubing with a push, and an internal gripping ring and O-ring hold the tubing tight. To disconnect, push on the release ring and pull the tubing out of the fitting. All meet NSF/ANSI 61 for use in drinking water systems.

Wing Nut Expansion Plugs
Twist the wing nut on these plugs to expand the seal and close off pipe openings. Maximum air back pressure is the amount of pressure a plug can withstand without moving. Maximum water back pressure refers to the pressure resulting from the height of the water above the plug.

Quick-Snap Expansion Plugs
Turn the cam handle to expand the seal, then snap the handle down to hold it in place and close off pipe openings. Maximum air back pressure is the amount of pressure a plug can withstand without moving. Maximum water back pressure refers to the pressure resulting from the height of the water above the plug.
