Frequently Asked Questions
Are these sockets suitable for seawater applications?
Yes, the galvanized coating provides excellent corrosion resistance in marine environments. However, for permanent immersion, additional cathodic protection may be recommended.
What thread types are available?
We offer both NPT (National Pipe Thread) and BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) threads to accommodate different piping standards used on vessels worldwide.
Can these sockets handle high-pressure systems?
With a working pressure rating of up to 300 psi WOG, they are suitable for most shipboard high-pressure systems including fire mains and hydraulic lines.
Do you provide custom sizes?
Standard sizes are readily available; custom sizes can be manufactured upon request for specific projects.
