You want to replace old lead pipe connected to cast iron sewer pipe with copper How do you connect the copper pipe to the old lead pipe or to the cast iron pipe?
When I have to connect copper to lead "D" I usually solder the copper to the lead or wipe a lead joint depending on the diameter To connect copper to cast iron ,.... If there is a hub I caulk the copper directly into the CI with oakum and poured lead (molten) OR one can solder / braze a female adapter fitting and screw the copper into a CI female fitting
What are the different types of bathtub drains?
copper Cast Iron PVC ABS Galvanized wrought Galvanized Steel
Why are fireplace pokers made of iron and not copper?
There are several reasons: * Iron is less malleable than copper so the tools can be thinner and lighter and still have the durability and strength needed * Iron has a higher melting point than copper * Iron does not conduct heat as well as copper so the handles of iron tools stay cooler longer * Iron is about a tenth the price of copper
Can you use cast iron clamps on copper pipe?
Not directly without some type of sleeving or protection between them. They are dissimilar metals and it will create electrolysis which will severely impair the copper pipe and create holes in the copper in the future.
Why is copper more useful than iron for building?
Copper is more malleable and can be formed easier. However, it is much softer than iron and doesn't carry weight well. Copper is more corrosion resistant than iron is and oxidizes very slowly.
Why iron is not a good conductor of heat if it compair to copper?
Copper has relatively easily available electron as compare to the iron because copper has bigger atomic size than iron which means the shielding effect in copper is more than iron so the electron of copper can conduct heat more easily and efficiently as compare to the electron of the iron which make iron not a good conductor of heat if it is compair to copper.
Can copper wire be made into a magnet?
The copper wire has to be wound around a iron core to get the full effect of electromagnetism.

What are two main types of pipes?
For supply, it is copper and galvanized iron. For waste, ABS (plastic) or cast iron.
Why are pots made of iron?
SO they don't melt on the stove. Also they are durable, good conductors of heat. Copper pans are much more expensive, and so are cast iron ones.
Copper sulfate plus iron equals?
The iron is higher in they reactivity scale than copper , Therefore the copper will be replaced by iron to make iron sulfate and copper by itself.
Will copper displace the iron from iron oxide?
No, copper is less reactive than iron.
What happen when copper sulphate is stored in iron vessel?
Since iron is a more active metal than copper, the iron would replace the copper in the copper sulfate, forming iron sulfate, and releasing elemental copper. The copper will not shape itself into a copper vessel, so eventually, the iron sulfate would leak out of the iron vessel, and eventually, if there is enough copper sulfate, the iron vessel will cease to exist.
How do you do copper coating on iron powder?
Contacting the iron powder with an aqueous solution of copper (II) salts will produce a copper coating on iron powder: Iron is higher in the electromotive series than copper and therefore will displace copper from the solution, resulting in copper-coated iron and dissolved iron cations. When all of the surface of the iron powder has been coated with copper, the iron will stop reacting because it no longer has access to the copper ions in solution, the access of the iron being blocked by the layer of copper coating the remaining iron powder.
Will cooking tomatoes in a cast iron pan adversely effect the pan?
It shouldn't, the acid to tomatoes is not strong enough to etch the cast iron.
What is the product of iron and copper II sulfate?
iron + copper sulphate ''goes to'' iron sulphate + copper
Why is iron able to replace copper in copper sulfate?
Iron is more reactive than copper.
