All you need to know about an appropriate tube fitting
An appropriate tube fitting is determined by temperature and pressure. High-temperature and high-pressure applications call for metal fittings, while low-temperature and low-pressure applications call for plastic ones. Galvanic corrosion can be reduced by using plastic fittings with metal tubes, but metal fittings are typically utilized. Threaded flare fittings Threaded flare fittings force the tubing's flanged end against its mating surface. A conical seal is formed as the relevant components are pulled together tightly. The Society of Automotive Engineers specifies two different types of flares (SAE). Automotive, refrigeration, and marine systems frequently employ the 45-degree burst. Brass is the most frequent material for 45-degree fittings; however, 37-degree fittings can be purchased in brass, steel, or stainless steel. Two-piece fittings use a long-necked nut to position and support the tubing against the flare. The tubing is prone to twisting when torque is appli
