Is it Possible to Connect a Square Pipe Without a Union?
Could one construct a square pipe fitting lacking a union? We are interrogated on that frequently and our response is affirmative. Although, it is not always the most suitable selection.
Square pipe fittings are split into two distinct groups: union fittings and non-union fittings. The former have a diminutive yet threaded part, allowing the two sections to be joined together securely by turning them until tight. In contrast, non-union fittings are not fitted with this element.
If your goal is to implement a square pipe fitting in a cost-friendly and space-conscious manner, avoiding union fittings is key. Utilizing non-union fittings is more affordable, and their ease-of-installation in tighter areas can be advantageous.
Utmost attention must be paid to union fittings to ensure a leak-free affair; for unlike non-union counterparts, they consist of a threaded component with the potential to let water slip through the crevices if not tightened adequately.
A fourth obstacle when it comes to removing union fittings is the complexity of the task itself. To take one out, you’ll need to use a uniquely designed tool that will help to unscrew the threaded piece. This can be taxing, particularly if the fixture is installed in an awkward location.
Ultimately, it is up to you to decide whether a union fitting should be employed or not in creating a square pipe. However, there are certain pros and cons associated with this choice that must be taken into account in accordance with your individual situation and requirements.
