MODEL SS CONNECTOR

 

OVERVIEW: Flexicraft stocks standard copper sweat end braided flexible connectors with bronze hose & braid (stainless steel hose & braid for 2-1/2" and up). These connectors are designed to absorb vibration and allow for the permanent lateral offsets listed in the table below. NSF 372 Lead Free.

MANUFACTURING STANDARDS & SIZING NOTE: The female sweat cup inside diameters on our stock SSC connectors are manufactured to meet ASA Standard B16.18 and ASA/ASME B16.22.

  • Please Note: Because these units are built strictly to these traditional industrial standards, the socket dimensions on sizes 2-1/2" and larger may not directly slip onto standard commercial plumbing water tube (Type K, L, M) without a field fitting reducer or custom domestic fabrication. Always verify your actual pipe outside diameter (O.D.) before ordering.

FEATURES:

  • Quick Ship: Maintained in stock for immediate delivery.

  • Economical: Cost-effective imported design.

  • Self-Restrained: Does not require tie rods; braid contains pressure thrust.

  • Female Sweat Ends: Designed to accept copper pipe ends (Solder/Sweat connection).

APPLICATIONS:

  • Vibration Isolation: Minimizing noise and vibration at pump and equipment connections.

  • Lateral Offset: Accommodating piping misalignment or thermal movement in copper systems.

TEMPERATURE: to 600°F (Note Pressure Derating factors in technical table).
