corrosion under water, although under atmospheric exposure the influence of composition is sometimes more marked.
In practice, oxygen removal has -been accomplished in two ways, namely; by de-aerating the water mechanically; and by fixing the free oxygen by chemical combination. Suitable apparatus is now being manufactured for this purpose.

The standardization of the Roughing-in Dimensions of Angle Steam and Hot Water.and Modulating Radiator Valves was made possible by the cooperation of the Manufacturers Standardization Society of the Valves and Fittings Industry.
Tables 1 and 2 give the important physical properties of Standard and Extra Heavy Wrought Pipe.
Copper and Brass Pipe
Copper and brass tubing are commonly stocked and supplied in sizes varying from to 10 in. o. d. and in gages from 2 to 25 B. & S. and Stubbs.
Copper and brass pipes are stocked and supplied in standard, extra heavy and double extra heavy iron pipe thicknesses and sizes. See Tables 1 and 2. Both tubing and piping are usually stocked in 12 ft. lengths, and can be obtained in lengths from 2 to 20 ft. or more if required.
The serviceability and usefulness of brass piping is due principally to its inherent resistance to corrosion. For this reason it is used for boiler
