| Introducing Lead Free Brass Fittings |
| |
| On January 1, 2010 both the state’s of California and Vermont will implement strict lead-free laws that will require all wetted surfaces of fittings, pipe, and fixtures used in potable water systems (drinking water) to have no more than 0.25% lead content by weight.¹ |
| |
| Brass fittings are used in industrial and residential applications because they are strong and durable. The advantages of brass for fittings include its good corrosive resistance, and also its plating, joining, polishing and finishing characteristics. Brass as a material is easily machined and so can be given any shapes of the various types of fittings available. |
