Fittings are the pipeline connecting parts intended to branch them to change directions, to pass into the pipes of other diameters. Fittings are also installed in places where frequent disassembly and assembly of the conjugations is necessary.
One of the most common fitting kinds is connecting branches – the threaded small diameter fitting pipes. They connect the pipeline elements to other pipes, accounting and control devices, and other equipment.
These items are used in the most types of engineering networks such as water- and heat supply systems, high and low pressure gas pipelines, industrial pipelines.
The advantage of connecting by using the connection branches is possibility of quick assembly and disassembly of the structure. Due to this, distribution pipeline balancing and commissioning, maintenance and repair get easier.
To extend service term and to improve function reliability, the connecting branches are made of corrosion resistant steel characterized by increased tendency to deformations at strong thread tightening.
Frequent mounting and dismantling of the connections gets harder because of thread galling, and forming scores on the items. As a result, the service lifetime of the parts reduces, too.
To prevent the connecting branches from damaging in process of operating them, MODENGY 1005 and MODENGY 1014 anti-friction solid-film coatings are used.
stabilize friction in thread. These products effectively separate the parts surfaces even at high tightening torques, due to what easy assembly and disassembly of the connection is provide, and their service lifetime is extended, too.
The coatings are applied on the stage of connecting branches production, and polymerize at heating in a kiln. They protect threaded parts against galling, and scuffing for the entire term of their operating without need in repeated applying.
