What else can I help you with?
Can you use brass as a dialectric union between copper and black iron pipe?
No, brass cannot be used as a dielectric union between copper and black iron pipe. Dielectric unions are typically made of materials that are not electrically conductive, such as plastic or rubber. Brass is a conductive material and would not provide insulation against galvanic corrosion between copper and black iron pipe.
How do you conet PVC pipe to lead pipe?
Lead wipe a brass nipple into the lead pipe and then use a female adapter x PVC on the brass threads
How do you remove a broken chrome bathroom sink drain pipe from the brass pipe in the wall?
There should be a nut around the chrome pipe holding it to the brass. Loosen the nut and pull the chrome pipe out.
Can you use brass and galvanized pipe for a gas line?
No.
Is teflon tape necessary for brass on brass fittings?
Not necessary, but recommended along with pipe thread compound.
Why do pipes rust?
Plastic pipe does not rust, brass does not rust, copper does not rust. Stainless steel does not rust, lead pipe does not rust.
In a steel pipe fitted with brass tap which metal will get corroded?
In this scenario, the steel pipe will likely corrode faster than the brass tap due to galvanic corrosion. When dissimilar metals are in contact in the presence of an electrolyte (such as water), an electrochemical reaction occurs, causing the steel to degrade. To prevent this, it's important to use proper corrosion inhibitors or coatings to protect the steel pipe.

Can brass glue be used on plastic PVC?
NO, PVC is very sensitive to which glue is used. In Domestic pipe applications you should use Weld-On 711

Is it o.k. to use carbon steel pipe with brass valves?
There are instances when corrosion occurs at the junction of a carbon steel pipe and a brass valve. This is often the result of a pipe threading failure.
Is it OK to connect brass pipe to chromed pipe?
No! That will create intergranular corrosion
Do you need pipe dope for brass to brass?
Yes, it is still a pipe thread. The pipe dope is there to fill in the gaps in the thread. It is impossible to machine the treads close enough in pipe to not need something in the threads to make a seal.
Are watts brass pipe fittings recyclable?
Yes all brass object can be recycled.
Is it okay to connect copper pipe to brass to galvanized to brass and back to copper or will it cause a reaction that will corrode the pipes?
If you do connect copper pipe to galvanized pipe, you will need a dielectric coupling or else the galvanized pipe will corrode. Same with connecting galvanized pipe to brass fittings. Brass is an alloy that contains copper and therefore the same electrolytic properties will exist unless a dielectric coupling is used. Hope that helps you out.
How much does one miter of plastic pipe weight?
It depends on the thickness of the plastic pipe. :)
