2. Push-to-pull compression fittings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push-to-pull_compression...

   The main advantages of this technology over traditional soldered copper or glued plastic are that fittings can easily be unmounted and re-used, speed of assembly, assembly is possible when wet, and that the joints can still be rotated after connection. These fittings can be used on all sorts of pipe of many sizes for many purposes.

3. Solderability - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solderability

   Both quantitative and qualitative tests for solderability exist. [6] The two most common testing methods are the 'dip and look' method and wetting balance analysis.In both of these tests, the soldered pieces undergo an accelerated aging process before being tested for solderability, to take into consideration the time a component was in storage prior to mounting to final assembly.

4. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

   Press fittings with appropriate and region-specific certification may be used for gas lines. Stainless steel and carbon steel press fittings can withstand up to 16 bars of pressure. A disadvantage of press fittings is the dead space between the pipe and the fitting, which can possibly rule out use for beverage and food applications.

5. Compression fitting - Wikipedia

   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

6. Copper tubing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_tubing

   Solder fittings are smooth and easily slip onto the end of a tubing section. The joint is then heated using a torch, and the solder is melted into the connection. When the solder cools, it forms a very strong bond that can last for decades. Solder-connected rigid copper is the most popular choice for water supply lines in modern buildings.

7. Pipe (fluid conveyance) - Wikipedia

   The cost of the tooling is very expensive. As of 2016, a basic toolkit required to sweat solder all the copper pipes of a typical single family residence, including fuel and solder, can be purchased for approximately $200. By contrast, the minimum cost of a basic powered crimping tool starts at around $1800, and can be as high as $4000 for the ...

8. Soldering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering

   The electric soldering iron is widely used for hand-soldering, consisting of a heating element in contact with the "iron" (a larger mass of metal, usually copper) which is in contact with the working tip made of copper. Usually, soldering irons can be fitted with a variety of tips, ranging from blunt, to very fine, to chisel heads for hot ...

9. Solder alloys - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder_alloys

   Soldering copper pipes using a propane torch and a lead-free solder. Solder is a metallic material that is used to connect metal workpieces. The choice of specific solder alloys depends on their melting point, chemical reactivity, mechanical properties, toxicity, and other properties.
