Brass flare fittings

What are brass flare fittings?

Flare fittings which is a type of compression fitting can be made of brass and used with other tubings or flare fittings. The brass flare fittings can be used for securing the tapered end of a flare tube or fitting. It offers a pressure-resistant and leakage-proof seal, and the connections offer a high degree and long-term reliability. The brass flare elbow fittings can be used as an appropriate alternative to the solder-type joints. The ca360 brass flare gas fittings come with a body and a flared end. These are affordable fittings that can resist mechanical pullouts. They can be assembled and disassembled easily for inspection and maintenance. These fittings can minimize leakage and are used for flammable applications in the marine, liquid, and gas industries.

How to determine brass flare fitting sizes? What size flare is on propane?

The female connections of the brass flare pipe fittings are measured by inserting the gauge to the connection and then placing it to the surface of sealing. In case the connection’s centerlines and gauge are parallel, then it means that the correct angle has been found out. The male flare type can be measured by placing the gauge to the sealing surface. If the connection’s centerlines and gauge are parallel, then it means that the correct angle has been found out.

The flare size on propane is ½” or ⅜”. They come with a 45 degree flare angle.
