Weatherhead brass fittings are valued for their durability, corrosion resistance, precision machining, and ease of installation. They meet strict SAE standards, making them reliable for both industrial and automotive applications.
High-Quality Material Made from UNS CA-360 brass bar, which provides excellent machinability, strength, and resistance to wear.
Corrosion Resistance Brass naturally resists rust and corrosion, making these fittings ideal for plumbing, hydraulic, pneumatic, and fuel systems where moisture or chemicals are present.
Precision Machining Weatherhead fittings are precision-engineered to SAE standards, ensuring consistent performance, tight seals, and compatibility with industry-standard systems.
Ease of Assembly & Disassembly Large, uniform wrench pad areas are designed for use with standard open-end wrenches, making installation and maintenance faster and simpler.
Strength & Durability Brass fittings can withstand high pressures (up to 3000 psi in some cases) and wide temperature ranges (from -325°F to 400°F), ensuring long service life in demanding environments.
Leak-Free Performance Properly installed Weatherhead brass fittings provide tight, leak-free connections, which is critical in hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
Versatility Suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive fuel lines, refrigeration, air brakes, and general plumbing. Their adaptability makes them a go-to choice across industries.
Cost-Effectiveness While not the cheapest option, brass fittings strike a balance between affordability and long-term reliability, reducing replacement and maintenance costs over time.
