Stainless Steel Parts

Stainless Steel hose, pipe, and plumbing fitting parts encompass a wide range of components that are used to connect, adapt, and control fluid flow within plumbing systems. These fittings are commonly used in residential, commercial, industrial, and specialized applications. Stainless Steel is a preferred material for these fittings due to its corrosion resistance, durability, and strength. Here are some common Stainless Steel fitting parts manufactured by Conex Metals:

1. Nipples and Couplings:Stainless Steel nipples and couplings are short lengths of pipe with male or female threads on both ends. They are used to connect two pipes with threaded ends or to extend a pipeline.
2. Elbows and Tees:Stainless Steel elbows and tees are fittings with angled connections, allowing the flow of fluid to change direction or split into multiple directions. Elbows have angled bends, while tees have one inlet and two outlets at 90-degree angles.
3. Reducers:Reducers are used to connect pipes or hoses of different diameters. They have one end with a larger diameter and another with a smaller diameter, allowing for smooth transitions in fluid flow.
4. Flanges:Stainless Steel flanges are flat, circular fittings with holes for bolts, used to connect pipes or hoses to other components. Flanges create a strong and secure connection, often with gaskets to prevent leaks.
5. Valves:Stainless Steel valves control the flow of fluids within a plumbing system. They come in various types, including ball valves, gate valves, check valves, and butterfly valves, each with specific functions and mechanisms.
6. Adapters:Adapters are used to connect components with different thread types or sizes. Stainless Steel adapters can be used to transition between pipe threads, hose barbs, or other connection types.
7. Quick-Connect Fittings:Quick-connect Stainless Steel fittings allow for fast and tool-free assembly and disassembly of hoses or pipes. They are commonly used in applications that require frequent connection changes.
8. Compression Fittings:Compression fittings use a nut and ferrule to create a secure and leak-resistant connection between pipes or hoses. They are commonly used with softer materials like plastic or rubber hoses.
9. Crosses:Cross fittings have one inlet and three outlets, forming a “plus” shape. They are used to distribute fluid flow into multiple directions.
10. Hose Barb Fittings:Stainless Steel hose barb fittings have barbed ends that grip the inner diameter of hoses, providing a secure connection when combined with clamps or crimps.
11. Camlock Couplings:Camlock couplings have a lever or handle that locks two couplers together, creating a quick and secure connection. They are commonly used for hoses and pipes.
12. Swage Fittings:Swage fittings are used for crimping Stainless Steel wires onto hoses to create a secure connection, often used in high-pressure applications.
