  2. Allura Red AC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allura_Red_AC

    Allura Red AC, also known as FD&C Red 40 or E129, is a red azo dye commonly used in food. It was developed in 1971 by the Allied Chemical Corporation, who gave the substance its name. [1] [2] It is usually supplied as its red sodium salt but can also be used as the calcium and potassium salts. These salts are soluble in water.

  3. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

    The fitting is known as a reducing coupling, reducer, or adapter if their sizes differ. There are two types of collars: "regular" and "slip". A regular coupling has a small ridge or stops internally to prevent the over-insertion of a pipe and, thus, under-insertion of the other pipe segment (which would result in an unreliable connection).

    Also known as Allura Red AC, Red Dye No. 40 is often combined with aluminum to create Red 40 Lake, a non-water-soluble form ideal for products like chewing gum. Is Red Dye 40 safe?

  5. Now That Red Dye 3 Is Banned, What Will Happen To Red Dye 40?

    A compression fitting 15 mm isolating valve. A compression fitting is a fitting used in plumbing and electrical conduit systems to join two tubes or thin-walled pipes together. . In instances where two pipes made of dissimilar materials are to be joined (most commonly PVC and copper), the fittings will be made of one or more compatible materials appropriate for the connect

    Diagram of a simple electrical cable with three insulated conductors, with IEC colour scheme. About 1950, PVC insulation and jackets were introduced, especially for residential wiring. About the same time, single conductors with a thinner PVC insulation and a thin nylon jacket (e.g. US Type THN, THHN, etc.) became common. [citation needed]

  8. Flare fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flare_fitting

    Flare fittings are a type of compression fitting used with metal tubing, usually soft steel, ductile (soft) copper and aluminum, though other materials are also used. In a flare fitting the tube itself is "flared" i.e. expanded and deformed at the end.

  9. AN thread - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AN_thread

    AN fittings are a flare fitting, using 37° flared tubing to form a metal-to-metal seal. They are similar to other 37° flared fittings, such as JIC, which is their industrial variant. [2] The two are interchangeable in theory, though this is typically not recommended due to the exacting specifications and demands of the aerospace industry.
