Materials-Elbow
and Tees
Brass forgings-Pioneer compression
fittings are made from BS-218 material. The exceptional strength
of forge fittings (Over 80% stronger than castings) provides
an extra safety factor.
Connectors, Unions and Nuts
Stress relieved brass bar stock-BS-249.
Temperature Ranges
From - 65oF - 250oF
Vibration
Fair resistance to vibration
or tube movement, depending on applications involved. Use long
nut for additional resistance to vibration.
Applications
Use with copper, brass and aluminium.
Not recommended for steel tubing manufactured for low & medium
pressure tubing connection work where excessive vibrations or
tube movement is not involved. This fittings is widely used
for connecting gasoline, grease, oil, water, vacuum and air
lines

Temperature and type of tubings
used are important factors. However, the following table is
good guide for proper selection at temperature 60 F.
