A fitting or adapter is used in pipe systems to connect sections of pipe (fluid conveyance), pipe (designated by Nominal Pipe Size, nominal size, with greater Engineering tolerance, tolerances of variance) or tube (fluid conveyance), tube (designated by actual size, with lower tolerance for variance), adapt to different sizes or shapes, and for other purposes such as regulating (or measuring) fluid flow. These fittings are used in plumbing to manipulate the conveyance of fluids such as water for Drinking water, potatory, irrigational, Sanitation, sanitary, and cooling, refrigerative purposes, Natural gas, gas, petroleum, Wastewater, liquid waste, or any other liquid or gaseous substances required in domestic or commercial environments, within a system of pipes or tubes, connected by various methods, as dictated by the material of which these are made, the material being conveyed, and the particular environmental context in which they will be used, such as soldering, Mortar ...
