When it comes to the automotive industry, they need to use a variety of connections and fittings to make and maintain vehicles. There are many pipes and custom fabrications that go into make a car, motorcycle, or other motorized vehicle as well. As a result, each of these parts need the proper fittings to put these vehicles together and keep them functioning for years to come.
So, here are some different types of fittings that Detroit Nipple Works supplies to manufacturers, dealers, suppliers and repair shops in the automotive industry.
Compression fittings have a lot of practical uses in the building of an automotive vehicle. These fitting are applied to lubrication and air lines. They are also used in places where soldering isn’t an option. This is because compression fittings do not need a soldering torch to serve its purpose. In fact, they do not need any special tools at all, which makes it quick and easy to use. They also make disassembly and assembly easier. Add the fact that they work at higher pressures and with toxic gases, and you can see why the industry uses these fittings.
We have talked about flares and fittings before. Flaring is a process that strengthening the metal or polymer by plastic deformation. This creates crystal structure in the metal that helps create a tight seal. Single and Double Flare configurations are commonly found in automobiles for break lines and high-pressure hydraulics. This metal-on-metal seal is strong, ensuring it will not fail while trying to apply the breaks.
Hydraulics systems are required in automobile manufacturing. For example, there are two type of hydraulic systems in a car: proportional and amplifying. Both of these systems power different systems. Manuel brakes are connected to the proportional system, while power steering connects to amplifying system. Due to the importance of these functions, the hydraulics systems need to have proper fitting to prevent steering and brake failure. Hydraulic pipe fittings are made to handle pressurized fluids, meaning they are specially designed for this purpose.
Being an industrial supplier we need to have all sorts of parts and hydraulic items available. We can supply your automotive needs with the heavy use of hydraulic lines and pipes. Our salespeople can help you find the best hydraulic pipe fittings and hydraulic lines for your machine shop or manufacturing facility. Detroit Nipple Works also has many different fittings for alternative energy production including lines and pipes for wind turbines. In addition, maintenance is an important item and needs to be thought of during production.
Being that pipe fittings should not leak, we use the highest quality hydraulic pipe fittings to make sure things like your hydraulic fluid will not leak and slow production at your manufacturing facility.

Industrial hydraulic pipe fittings are used to connect pipes and tubes inside a hydraulic system. In a hydraulic system, equipment is usually under extreme pressure and if usually not a fixed system. Furthermore, any type of industrial hydraulic pipe fittings needs to be strong and durable to withstand the everyday pressure it will endure. Within a hydraulic system, there are a variety of components the fittings may need to adhere to such as hydraulic tubes, hydraulic pipes, and hydraulic hoses.
To order the proper fitting you need to know what exactly you need the fitting for. For instance, you made need a fitting for a hydraulic tube. A hydraulic tube is a seamless pipe built specially for a hydraulic system. Also, these tubes have a standard size with standard diameters. The hydraulic tube is usually connected with a flange, welding nipples, cut-rings or flare connections.
A hydraulic pipe, on the other hand, is usually a larger diameter tube. The pipes in a hydraulic system, are usually used for the more low-pressure type tasks. These pipes are mostly just connected by welds. Hydraulic hoses are used when more flexibility is needed. Also, the hoses usually have steel fittings on each end.
There are different types of hydraulic pipe fittings such as compression fittings. Examples of compression fittings are:
Along with compression fittings, there are also threaded fittings and flange fittings. No matter what type of industrial hydraulic pipe fitting you need for your system, contact Detroit Nipple Works. Finally, we can provide you with the fittings and tubing you need to get your job done.
