Flare Fittings

Flare Fittings are generally compression fittings to be used with metal tubing. Flare fittings can be made from forging using the cold working procedure. The tapered end of the fitting is secured with the tapered end of the tubing with the help of a flare nut producing a pressure-resistant, leak-tight seal. These flare fittings are very durable and highly reliable and hence are used when the fitting's location is inaccessible or needed for a long time. Our flare fittings can be machined from brass rods or forged and hence the possibility of seepage or leakage is eliminated. The flow in the fittings is ensured by the smooth interior finishes created by these products.

Material

• Material: Brass, Copper, Aluminium, CDA 360 Brass, Forging Brass, Stainless Steel, 316 Stainless Steel

Application

• Manufactured for low, medium and high pressure pipe lines.
• Application suitability in areas like air conditioner, refrigerator, automobile; choice of different heat treatment like annealing, normalizing, tempering, carburizing, induction hardening among others.
• For connecting pipes or fittings of different types.
• For plumbing, Construction, Marine and General Engineering Applications.
• Used in Pressurized piping systems, though there is some overlap with fittings for low-pressure or non-pressurized systems.

Benefits

• Threads conform to ANSI/ASME B1.20.1.
• Contain less than .25% lead by weight.
• Meets functional requirements of SAE J530 and SAE J531.
• Threads made to Dry seal standards.
• Available in both forging and extrusions.
• Corrosion Resistance, Ductility at high temperatures and low magnetic permeability.

• Operation

• Precision Thread Construction to ensure leak free and reliable systems.
• Working pressure calculated in accordance with power piping code ANSI B31.1 and refinery piping code ANSI B31.3
• To be tight enough to avoid leakage if a pipe thread sealant is used.
• Before you attempt to loosen or tighten any connection, make sure the system is not pressurized.
