Pipe fittings serve a variety of purposes, including connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and redirecting piping in numerous industries. Push-to-connect compression fittings eliminate the need for tools or sealants, making them ideal for installations where heat sources, like soldering torches, are restricted. When selecting pipe fittings, consider the application requirements to determine the appropriate material, shape, size, and durability. Fittings are available in threaded or unthreaded designs, with a wide range of shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
