Fittings and Couplings
Fittings and couplings, and adapters allow industrial parts to connect and work together. For example, fittings allow piping to connect and help direct the flow of a plumbing system. Cam & groove couplers are available in assorted styles: reducing, standard, and flanged. They are made of stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and polypropylene. We offer a full line of DuraChoice stainless steel fittings in 316 and 304. Fittings in brass and PVC are also available and can be found below. All of these products are available in various sizes. See below to browse our selection of couplings and fittings. The difference between a fitting and a coupling is that A fitting or adapter is used in pipe systems to connect straight sections of pipe or tube, adapt to different sizes or shapes, and for other purposes such as regulating (or measuring) fluid flow. These fittings are used in plumbing to manipulate the conveyance of water, gas, or liquid waste in domestic or commercial environments, within a system of pipes or tubes.
Fittings (especially uncommon types) require money, time, materials, and tools to install, and are an important part of piping and plumbing systems. Valves are technically fittings, but are usually discussed separately.
