Brass compression fittings, an integral part of air and fluid systems, are now a cost-effective and leak-free alternative to solder connections. Their multipurpose design makes these the preferred choice for applications ranging from plumbing and heating to industrial systems.

At Hydrofit Engineers, your best hydraulic fittings in chennai, we offer a wide range of brass compression fittings that are designed to be robust and durable and are also resistant against corrosion with an easy installation process.

What Are Brass Compression Fittings?

These brass compression fittings are designed to be used with copper tubing. A typical assembly may include three primary elements:

Compression Nut
Ferrule (Compression Ring)
Fitting Body

As the nut is tightened, the ferrule bites into the tubing and the soft metal of the nut is compressed down creating an air-tight seal with absolutely no leaks perfect for both liquid and gas applications.

Design Regulations for Brass Compression Fittings

Material Excellence: Brass is a corrosion-resistant metal that offers high machinability and pressure resistance, and provides good strength for durable lifting use in industrial environments. however many industry usage the strainless steel pipe fittings and quick connect fittings for their application.

Three-Piece Construction: The nut, ferrule and body create a secure mechanical connection-no solder or adhesive needed.
Universal Compatibility: Compatible with copper, stainless steel and plastic tubing for varying system designs.
Ease of Assembly: Only simple hand tools are required – no special welding or soldering necessary!

Functional Advantages of Brass Compression Fittings

Leak-Proof: No leaks comes with pressure or vibration.
Reusable: It can be recoil and reuse without damaging the performance.
Resistant to Temperature & Pressure: Recommended for high pressure hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
Cost Effective: Lower installation and lifetime costs.
Durability: It isn’t prone to rust, corrosion or wear and tear, so it works best when fitted with both indoor and outdoor systems.
Flexibility: Provides the user with minor 3-dimensional adjustability during installation.
