{"id":202,"count":11,"description":"In the UKSPAR catalog, threaded fittings are presented as stainless steel elements for assembling, repairing and modernizing pipelines. The page offers detachable connections of the &quot;American&quot; type, straight and transition nipples, couplings, futorka, external and internal plugs, locknut, short thread and bend. The parts connect pipes, create a transition between diameters, close the free end or simplify the dismantling of the assembly. In the cards you can choose the size and view the price. For assembly, it is worth preparing a diagram of all connections.\r\n<h2>What threaded fittings are used for pipeline installation?<\/h2>\r\nThe type of fitting depends on the network configuration and the threads on the pipe and equipment. The parts create a direct connection, change direction or diameter, form a branch or a collapsible transition.\r\n<h3>Couplings and nipples<\/h3>\r\nThe coupling has an internal thread and connects two elements with an external thread. The nipple, on the other hand, is equipped with an external thread on both sides. The straight version preserves the diameter of the line, and the adapter nipple combines different sizes. The American allows you to disconnect the assembly without rotating a long section of pipe, which is convenient near a pump, filter or shut-off valve.\r\n<h3>Tees, angles and crosses<\/h3>\r\nA tee creates a branch, an angle changes direction, and a cross distributes the flow into several lines. However, these details are not displayed in the current list on the UKSPAR page, so the possibility of ordering must be clarified.\r\n<h3>Adapters, fittings and couplings<\/h3>\r\nIf a threaded adapter is needed, it is selected according to the diameters on both sides and the combination of internal and external threads. In the catalog, the transition function is performed by an adapter nipple and a ferrule. The ferrule is screwed into a larger hole and reduces its connecting size. The elbow is used where the pipes cannot be rotated during assembly. Together with the coupling and lock nut, it forms a detachable connection. The plugs close the unused hole, and the short thread helps to form a compact connecting section. The fitting is used to transition to a hose, but it is not among the displayed items on this page.\r\n<h2>How to choose the right threaded fitting<\/h2>\r\nFirst, determine the nominal diameter, standard and pitch of the thread, as well as its type: internal or external. The designation of the same size does not guarantee compatibility if the elements are manufactured according to different standards. Next, check the working pressure, temperature, environment and installation length of the part. Take into account the assembly sequence and tool access. Overtightening can damage the thread, and undertightening can impair tightness. The sealant must be compatible with water, gas or other media.\r\n<h2>Materials of manufacture and compatibility with pipes<\/h2>\r\nThe UKSPAR website presents stainless steel fittings that have good corrosion resistance and are suitable for critical pipeline assemblies, provided that they are compatible with the working environment. The specific steel grade, pressure and temperature should be checked in the technical documentation of the product. Brass is often used in domestic water supply and heating systems and for connecting sanitary equipment. Galvanized steel is suitable for steel threaded pipelines, in particular water networks, heating and some gas systems. Stainless steel is chosen for production pipelines, food and chemical environments, as well as where increased corrosion resistance is important. When combining different metals, the risk of electrochemical corrosion is assessed and, if necessary, a compatible transition is used.\r\n<h2>Buy threaded fittings at a bargain price<\/h2>\r\nYou can order stainless steel threaded fittings from UKSPAR with delivery across Ukraine. The price depends on the type of part and its size. For an accurate calculation, send a list of items or a diagram of the assembly indicating diameters, thread types, working medium, pressure and temperature. Specialists will help you choose a coupling, nipple, union, American, elbow, plug or locknut and check their mutual compatibility. Completing according to the diagram reduces the risk of unnecessary adapters and simplifies installation at the facility.","link":"https:\/\/ukspar.ua\/en\/fityngy-rizbovi\/","name":"Threaded fittings","slug":"fityngy-rizbovi","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":0,"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukspar.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/202"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukspar.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukspar.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_cat"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukspar.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_cat=202"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
