Metal Fittings FAQ
Q: What's the difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel fittings?
A: While both are corrosion-resistant, 316 contains molybdenum for enhanced resistance to chlorides and acidic environments, making it ideal for marine and chemical applications. 304 offers excellent general-purpose corrosion resistance at a lower cost.
Q: How do I select the proper coating for outdoor applications?
A: For maximum outdoor durability, we recommend:
-
Hot-dip galvanizing (70+ years protection)
-
Zinc-aluminum coating (superior salt resistance)
-
Powder coating (color options with UV stability)
Our engineers can recommend the optimal solution based on your environment.
Q: Can you manufacture custom fittings to our specifications?
A: Yes, our CNC machining and metal fabrication capabilities allow us to produce:
-
Custom sizes and configurations
-
Special thread patterns
-
Unique material combinations
-
Proprietary surface treatments
Minimum order quantities apply for custom projects.
