GALVANIZED FITTINGS FOR SALE

Galvanized fittings are metal connectors used in plumbing, gas lines, fire sprinkler systems, and other construction and industrial applications. They are made of steel that has been coated with a layer of zinc through a process called galvanizing. This process provides excellent corrosion resistance, making these fittings ideal for use in environments where exposure to moisture or chemicals is a concern.

While both galvanized and black fittings are commonly used in plumbing, they differ primarily in their finish and intended use. Galvanized fittings feature a zinc coating that provides superior rust and corrosion resistance, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, especially those involving exposure to the elements. Black fittings, on the other hand, have a distinctive dark finish and are often preferred for their aesthetic appeal, commonly used in exposed plumbing situations for a more industrial or rustic look.

WHERE GALVANIZED FITTINGS ARE USED

While galvanized fittings are commonly used in pipes for plumbing, gas lines, and sprinkler systems, they are not limited to pipes alone.

Here are some other applications where galvanized fittings find use:

• Industrial Equipment: Galvanized fittings can be found in industrial equipment, such as tanks, vessels, and machinery. Their corrosion resistance is especially valuable in environments where exposure to harsh conditions is common.

• Other Applications: Galvanized fittings can also be found in applications such as railings, handrails, and even some types of lighting fixtures.

• Coupling Fittings: Couplings are fittings that connect two pipes of the same diameter end-to-end. They are essentially straight connectors.

• Cap Fittings: Caps are fittings that seal the end of a pipe, preventing leaks or flow.

• Cross Fittings: Crosses are fittings that allow for the connection of four pipes at a 90-degree angle.

• Plug Fittings: Plugs are fittings that seal a threaded opening in a pipe or fitting.

• Nipple Fittings: Nipples are short sections of pipe with threads on both ends, used to connect two fittings or extend a pipe.

• 2-1/2" Fittings: Typically used for main drain lines and sewer connections. Available in tees and elbows.

Galvanized Fittings by Length

Couplings, designed to join two pipes of the same diameter, sometimes require specific lengths for optimal performance.

Here are some common lengths for galvanized couplings we offer:

• 3-3/4" Couplings: These shorter couplings are ideal for tight spaces or when minimal pipe extension is needed.

• 4-1/4" Couplings: Offering a bit more length, these couplings are suitable when a slightly greater distance between pipe sections is desired.

• 4-3/4" Couplings: These couplings provide a longer connection, often used when more flexibility or space is required between the joined pipes.

• 4" Couplings: A standard length for many applications, these couplings offer versatility for various pipe joining needs.

• 5" Couplings: When a longer connection is necessary, these couplings provide ample space between pipe sections, accommodating specific project requirements.
