Why are Instrument Fittings so important for industrial pipe systems?
Instrument fittings are essential for connecting different systems and preventing leaks and malfunctions. This is important for protecting the productivity of businesses and the safety of employees.
CPV manufactures high-quality instrument fittings to the highest standards. Although CPV offers a wide range of industrial pipe fittings, let’s focus on three specific designs.
- Tailpieces: Tailpieces connect the ends of separate industrial pipe systems to allow for secure wet connections and safe transportation of liquids with minimal leakage.
- Union nuts: Union nuts are essential for hydraulic and pneumatic industrial pipe systems that require customization. They can be unscrewed and reattached as needed and are resistant to vibration and pulsation, providing long-term use without leaks.
- Adapters: Adapters are adjustable pipe fittings designed to extend or terminate a pipe run and connect dissimilar pipes. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes and have numerous applications.
