The inner sleeve compresses on the tube and keeps the tube locked into the fitting. Once the sleeve is compressed it cannot be removed; the nut may be reused if it has not lost its form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrass compression fittings connect pipes and tubing through two or more ports. Brass creates a durable, corrosion-resistant fitting. These fittings have a cylindrical body with rings on the front and back and nuts on each end. A brass ring slides onto the pipe before connecting the fitting to tighten the seal and prevent leaking without soldering or extra tools. Brass fittings are easy to install, but they should not be used underground. Brass tube fittings are used in applications for plumbing systems, hospitals, laboratories, construction, vehicles, aeronautics, and many others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re not sure of what thread size you need, check out our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.freshwatersystems.com\/blogs\/blog\/how-to-determine-pipe-thread-type-and-pipe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e5-step guide to determining thread type and pipe size\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJACO Fittings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.freshwatersystems.com\/collections\/JACO-Manufacturing-Company\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"norefferer noopener noreferrer\"\u003eJACO\u003c\/a\u003e manufactures are expert engineers in the plastic industry.
