What is a Brass Tube?
The brass tube carried at Detroit nipple works are great in a plumbing environment as well as oil, gas, steam applications and for hot water distribution lines. Because hot water rusts steel pipes at a much quicker pace than cold water does, brass pipes are the better bet in these situations. Brass tube on hot water lines do not color water a reddish color quite like steel pipes do. Brass tube tends to have a longer life as a result.The softness of the brass makes for a tight seal. Iron tube or galvanized pipes are less expensive than brass but that’s mostly because they lack several of brass tube advantages such as their ability to bend or thread without as much complication as a steel tube. Because brass tube does not rust, you can use a size smaller than you would a steel tube without sacrificing water volume.
Since brass tube typically comes in 12-foot lengths it should be stored where it can be properly supported which is on the floor or a long shelf. Brass tube is threaded at each end and then screwed into fittings or couplings. As mentioned brass tube is softer to the touch than steel tube or iron tube, so it can be easily nicked or marked up by tools. So when installing, approach it the same way you would approach installing a steel tube, except use friction clamps and wrenches. Brass tube dies should be used as the threading of your brass pipe.
