    摘要: A piping component that includes (i) a piping body with an open end; and (ii) an alloy comprising (by weight percentage) 12% to 16.5% zinc, 0.265% to 1.6% silicon and sufficient copper so that the sum of the weight percentages of the zinc, silicon, and copper in the alloy is at least 99.7%. The alloy exhibits an elongation that is within a range of 60% to 70%. Additionally discloses is a piping component including (i) a piping body with an open end; and (ii) a cold worked alloy comprising (by weight percentage) 12% to 16.5% zinc, 0.265% to 1.8% silicon and sufficient copper so that the sum of the weight percentages of the zinc, silicon, and copper in the alloy is at least 99.7%. In embodiments, the weight percentage of the silicon in the alloys disclosed can be 0.5% to 1.6%, 0.5% to 1.8%, or 0.5% to 2.0%.

    摘要: A pipe socket for making a threaded pipe connection that includes: a socket body defining a threaded portion, a cavity and a stop; an O-ring positioned within the cavity; and a plurality of interrupted series of tapping threads defined on an internal surface of the socket body in the threaded portion. The cavity is configured to receive a pipe and the stop is configured to stop a pipe received within the cavity. Each of the interrupted series of tapping threads is circumferentially equidistant from the adjacent interrupted series of tapping threads. Further, each of the interrupted series of tapping threads comprises threads arranged axially on the internal surface of the socket body for forming threads on a pipe received within the cavity.

    摘要: A piping component for controlling the flow of fluids that includes a piping body having an inlet end and an outlet end, including methods of operating such components within a piping system. The piping body may be sized for fluids operating at temperatures from approximately 350° F. up to approximately 500° F., and up to approximately 650° F. In addition, the piping body is made from a silicon-copper alloy consisting essentially of less than 16% zinc, less than trace amounts of lead, less than trace amounts of bismuth, 2 to 6% silicon and a balance of copper (by weight). In certain aspects, less than 0.09% of lead and/or less than 0.09% bismuth are contained in the silicon-copper alloy.

    摘要: Copper-zinc alloys exhibiting enhanced oxidation resistance are provided by adding an amount of sulfur that is effective to enhance oxidative resistance. Such sulfur addition can be achieved by forming a sulfur-rich pre-mix that is added to a base alloy composition. This technique provides improved homogeneity and distribution of the sulfur predominantly in the form of a metal sulfide.
