IFAN Brass Compression Fittings

What is Brass Compression Fittings?

Brass compression fittings are a type of plumbing fitting used to join two pipes or tubing together. They are made of brass and consist of three parts: a compression nut, a compression ring (also called a ferrule), and a body.

The compression nut is a threaded cylindrical piece that screws onto the body of the fitting. The compression ring is a small, tapered ring that fits around the pipe or tubing being joined. When the compression nut is tightened onto the body of the fitting, it compresses the ring onto the pipe/tubing creating a watertight seal.

Brass compression fittings are commonly used in plumbing systems for their ease of installation and reliability. They can be used with various types of pipes .They are also reusable and easy to disassemble for maintenance or repair purposes.
