*Tension O-ring (F) is a design enhancement on the 3/4” and 1” sizes.
This will be phased in over the next year. There are no performance
issues with fittings without this O-ring.

CHOOSE THE CORRECT SIZE OF FASTPIPE FROM THIS FLOW RATE CHART
LENGTH OF STRAIGHT RUN FROM COMPRESSOR OR 1/2 THE MAIN LOOP LENGTH
Theoretical flow chart based on:
- System pressure of 125 psi
- 5 psi pressure drop

FAST INSTALLATION TIME
-Aluminum piping is easy to cut and lift
-O-ring seals ensure a leak free system
-No glueing, threading or soldering
-Installs in half the time as some traditional methods
DIVERSE
-Install in small shops to industrial plants
-Connect to any existing piping system
-Expand or modify the system with ease
SUPERIOR AIR QUALITY
ENERGY EFFICIENT
-Sealed connections means your compressor run time is less
Today’s Improved Compressed Air Piping Method
Traditional Compressed Air Piping Methods
BLACK PIPE
- requires special threading equipment/skill in fabrication for joining
- prone to rust and loose scale deposits over time
- inexpensive material costs
- longer time needed for installation
COPPER
- skill in soldering needed to assemble joints
- not all types are suitable for pressure
- expensive material costs due to the high price of copper raw material
- high installation cost
PVC
- not recommended for compressed air by the manufacturer
- becomes brittle over time and is not safe, can explode, sending shrapnel
everywhere
- banned by OSHA for above ground applications
