A copper pipe cutter is a tool used to cut copper pipe. It is typically made of steel or cast iron and has a cutting wheel that is turned by a handle. The cutting wheel is sharpened to score the copper pipe, and then the pipe is broken by twisting the cutter. Copper cutter are available … Read more
Adjustable pipe supports are mechanical devices that serve the dual purpose of supporting pipes and accommodating movement due to factors such as thermal expansion, contraction, vibration, and seismic activity. Their adaptability makes them indispensable in systems where pipes are subjected to changes in temperature, pressure, and environmental conditions. Adjustable pipe supports are a type of … Read more
Schedule 160 pipe is a type of steel pipe that has a wall thickness that is 160 times the nominal pipe diameter (NPS). This means that a 1″ schedule 160 pipe would have a wall thickness of 0.16″. Schedule 160 pipe is typically used in applications where high pressure and high strength are important, such … Read more
Schedule 10 stainless steel pipe is a type of pipe that has a wall thickness that is 10 times the nominal pipe diameter (NPS).

There are many types of schedule 10S stainless steel pipe, such as 304, 316, and 316L. The grade of stainless … Read more
ASME B16.20 is an American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) standard that covers metallic gaskets for pipe flanges. It specifies the materials, dimensions, tolerances, and markings for ring-joint, spiral-wound, and metal-jacketed gaskets. These gaskets are dimensionally appropriate for use with flanges described in ASME B16.5, ASME B16.47, API Specification 6A, and ISO 10423 reference flange … Read more
A tool used to gauge the flow rate of a fluid in a pipe is an orifice plate. It’s a thin plate with a hole in it that’s often installed in a pipe perpendicular to the flow direction. When the fluid flows through the orifice, it creates a pressure drop across the plate. This pressure … Read more
