The Anderson Metals insert compression hose fitting is made of brass and has tube connectors. This insert connects two pipes or tubes going in the same direction to extend a straight run. It connects to tubing on both ends. This fitting is made of brass for corrosion resistance, ductility at high temperatures, and low magnetic permeability. The operating temperatures for this fitting range from -65 to 250 degrees F. This fitting is suitable for copper, brass, aluminum, and steel tubing connections.
Pipe and tube fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. Compression fittings do not require tools or sealants, and are useful in installations where a heat source, such as a soldering torch, is prohibited. When purchasing fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules pipe wall thickness.
Anderson Metals manufactures brass fittings, valves, and pipe nipples. The company, founded in 1951, is headquartered in Kansas City, MO.
