fitting is made from red brass for high strength, better corrosion resistance
than stainless steel, and greater ease in machining than yellow brass. The

to 250 degrees F). This fitting meets American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) B584 and American Society of Mechanical Engineers
(ASME)/American National Standards Institute (ANSI) B16 specifications for
quality assurance.Pipe fittings are components used for connecting,
terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many
different industries. When purchasing pipe 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.
