Maximizing Corrosion Resistance With Galvanized Fittings Made By FLUID-TECH
When selecting pipes and fittings for plumbing or structural applications, galvanized options provide outstanding defense against rust and corrosion. Hot-dipping and electroplating apply protective zinc coatings, but each process confers unique benefits.
Black Finished
Black or ‘bare’ iron fittings lack any coating. While less expensive initially, this raw iron requires protective paint coatings to prevent rusting, involving additional costs and reapplications when coatings deteriorate. Maintenance needs grow over the fitting’s lifespan.
Hot-Dip Galvanizing
Via hot-dip galvanizing, iron fittings are submerged in molten zinc at 430-460°C, alloys the protective coating metallurgically into the iron surface. This forms a tenacious zinc-iron alloy layer bonded seamlessly at a microscopic level. FLUID-TECH black iron 90 degree elbows could meet your choice.
Above this forms the corrosion product layer – zinc oxide – which self-heals minor cuts to prevent water/oxygen exposure sustaining corrosion. Hot-dip coatings reach minimum average thicknesses of 85μm per side.
This process engenders monolithic adhesion unmatched by other methods. Tests prove hot-dip withstands elbow bending/straightening repeatedly without flaking or peeling. Coatings withstand hydrochloric acid and saline immersion testing for decades of protection.
Electroplating
With electroplating, a current is passed through a zinc anode and the fitting acts as the cathode within an electrolytic zinc-rich solution. This coats the fitting with a hard, adherent zinc layer between 5-13μm thick on all surfaces.
While thinner than hot-dip layers, electroplating still shields iron from corrosion. Advantages include uniform coverage of complicated geometries plus ability to plate onto partially assembled fittings.
Hot-dipped & Electroplating May Apply According To Its Applications
Hot-dip coatings deliver unbeaten protection underground, underwater, or in corrosive atmospheres where dissimilar metal corrosion could occur. Electroplated fittings suffice in less demanding indoor/outdoor environments. Black fittings solely suit temporary uses indoors before painting. You may refer as 90 degree black pipe elbow.

Applications of Pipe Nipples List
Connecting Pipes
Nipples neatly connect adjacent pipe segments whether male/female or female/female joints. Consistent threading permits leak-free unions while absorbing thermal expansion/contraction stresses. Multiple nipple installations expedite piping jobs.
Adjusting Connections
Nipples facilitate precision alignments between pipes and wall/floor penetrations. Their adjustability streamlines positioning prior to final tightening. Nipples also space-out connections to fit limited access areas.
Fitting Integration
By connecting inlet/outlet fittings like valves, strainers or couplings to distribution pipes, nipples complete piping circuits neatly. Various nipple lengths suit dimensional variances between components.
Branch Connections
Nipples extend from cross fittings to neatly join branch lines. Their male threading fits female socket outlets perfectly. Multiple branches install rapidly versus soldering individual joints.
Insulator Piercing
When pipe insulation replaces over heat lines, nipples minimally pierce insulation at T-intersections for example to bond new piping sections. This avoids costly insulation removal/replacement.
Support Spacers
Nipples space supporting clamps or braces along runs at required intervals, transferring load across insulation gaps for suspended piping.
Adaptors
Short nipples convert between incompatible end configurations like male/female to female NPT. Quick fixes replace problematic pipe sections cost-effectively.
Cleanouts
Nipples install threaded cleanouts to access drain lines for periodic rodding or video inspection of blockages without dismantling entire lines.
Temporary Installations
Portable applications value nipple flexibility. Their detach-ability suits equipment setups, experiments or urgent repairs preceding permanent piping.
