Red Brass = 85 % copper /15 % zinc

Yellow Brass = 60% Copper 40 % Zinc

Copper TP is threadless pipe diameter

Copper tubing Type K / L/ M

So what is tyhe application and working pressure?

BEST application would be Brass (RED) and brazed joints with TP fittings

I would tend to agree but only if the brass has been DZR (dezinctified) treated, otherwise use copper.

ONLY "Yellow BRASS" is subjected to dezinication as the 40% zinc causes piping failures as the pipe becomes more brittle over time

Why is copper a good metal to make water pipes with?

Copper was good, mainly because it doesn't rust. Now there many pipes in plastics such as PEX, which are infinitely better than copper. Nobody smart uses copper any more.


Can copper conduct heat?

yes copper can conduct heat. it conducts heat better than alluminium & iron.


Why is copper a better condutor of heat than iron?

Copper is a better conductor of heat than iron because it has a higher thermal conductivity. This is because copper's atomic structure allows heat to transfer more efficiently through its lattice. In contrast, iron has a lower thermal conductivity due to its crystal structure which hinders the flow of heat.


Is copper has more volume than the iron?

No, copper does not have more volume than iron for the same weight or mass. Copper is denser than iron, so a given mass of copper will have a smaller volume than the same mass of iron.


What properties make iron not as good to use in wires as copper?

copper is a more better conducter than iron and therefore is able to pass more heat than iron. basically copper wires are used in many instances and domestic needs as it is cheaper and can resist electricity


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.


How do the physical properties of iron and copper compare?

Iron is a harder and more brittle metal than copper. Copper is a better conductor of electricity and heat compared to iron. Additionally, copper has a reddish-orange color while iron is a silver-gray color.


Which heats faster iron or copper?

Copper heats up faster than iron because it has a higher thermal conductivity. This means that copper is better at transferring heat energy compared to iron, which results in it heating up more quickly when exposed to a heat source.
