   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_fitting

   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

3. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

   Push-to-pull fittings are easily removed compression fitting that allows pipes to be connected with minimal tools. These fittings are similar to regular compression fittings but use an O-ring for sealing and a grip ring to hold the pipe. The main advantage is that it can easily be removed and re-used, it is easy to assemble, and the joints are ...

   ASTM B687-99(2005)e1 Standard Specification for Brass, Copper, and Chromium-Plated Pipe Nipples. ASME B1.20.7 Hose Coupling Screw Threads, Inch. (Quote: The normal sequence of connections, in relation to the direction of flow, is from an externally threaded nipple into an internally threaded coupling)

5. National pipe thread - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_pipe_thread

   These threads are now used in materials other than steel and brass, including PTFE, PVC, nylon, bronze, and cast iron. The taper on NPT threads allows them to form a seal when torqued as the flanks of the threads compress against each other, as opposed to parallel/straight thread fittings or compression fittings in which the threads merely hold ...
