Advantages and Disadvantages of Threaded Fittings
Advantages and Disadvantages of Threaded Fittings
Advantages
Installation productivity is moderately high, and specialized installation skill requirements are not extensive.
Leakage integrity is good for low-pressure, low-temperature installations where vibration is not encountered.
Disadvantages
Rapid temperature changes may lead to leaks due to differential thermal expansion between the pipe and fittings.
Vibration can result in fatigue failures of screwed pipe joints due to the high stress intensification effects caused by the sharp notches at the base of the threads.
In hazardous piping systems threaded connections should be avoided, if possible. Their vulnerability to fatigue damage is significant, especially where exposed threads are subject to corrosion.
