PI l BRAZED ' FITTINGS -- FleggJlota ibreodleas fitting is first black malleable fitting produced for braxlng to' steel or wrought-lron piping. Brazed Into ma chined socket io filling, piping end is flush with shoulder. Photo contrasts brated jelnt (right) with screwed Joint. Flagg* Flow fittings are designed for pipes 2 La nd smaller, rather than for larger site*.
Eliminating thread cutting, fittings suggest
future economies by use of thinner steel and wrought-lioo piping, particularly oo low -pressure applications. Normally, upper limits are 150-psi working steam pressure at 4S0 F, or SOO-pti. for ooo-shock oil, water or gas lines at 150 F. Stanley C Flagg A Co, 1421 Chestnut St, Phils*
