Safety is the biggest concern in the power sector and hence finest materials are being used by the leading manufacturers all over the world to offer fittings, valves and other fluid system components for nuclear safety-related applications.

A large number industrial fitting products are used in fossil-fired and combined cycle power plants. These fittings and valves provide leak-tight connections in a wide variety of materials and configurations that meet the specifications for a variety of applications.

Industrial fittings manufactured in a range of materials such as stainless steel, bronze copper, plastic are tested for required mechanical properties, excellent resistance to chemical and atmospheric agents, ability to withstand adverse weather conditions, low maintenance requirements and several other crucial factors.

The power sector makes use of various tubes and pipe fittings to handle a wide variety of laboratory chemicals; soft and flexible fittings for easy routing, bending, and installation. Products like valves, hoses and fittings are extensively used in power industry to regulate the liquids or gases used. The fluid power is often transmitted with the help of hydraulic and pneumatic pumps, cylinders, rotary actuators, motors, filters, hose accumulators, air preparation accessories, stationary compressors, and other products. Companies have introduced corrosion free compression tube fittings made from a titanium alloy and other materials to cater to the issues like high operating pressures, lower noise levels and less environmental damage due to leakage.

A look at some of the industrial, tube, pipe, pneumatic fittings used for the power industry:
