Pipe fittings have various properties due to different materials, and different properties make them suitable for different occasions. Do you know what materials are used for pipe fittings?
1. Carbon steel (such as Q235, 20 # steel)
Carbon steel pipe fittings can withstand a pressure of 10MPa and are the “economical and applicable players” in urban heating pipelines.
2. Stainless steel (such as 304, 316L)
Stainless steel fittings contain nickel chromium alloy to form a passivation film, which can resist corrosion from hydrochloric acid and saltwater in chemical plants.
3. Copper alloys (such as H62, T2)
Copper pipe fittings have natural antibacterial properties and fast thermal conductivity, making them the gold standard for hospital oxygen pipelines and brewing equipment.
4. Engineering plastics (such as PPR, PVC)
Engineering plastic pipes have no rust, insulation properties, and are a lightweight solution for household water supply and drainage as well as laboratory pipelines.
