Nevertheless, it is a very practical - and necessary - arrangement, as it must be able to carry water away from your home in the best possible way. Fortunately, plumbing installations are typically hidden away in cabinets, under floors, or in walls. Despite this, copper pipes can also be visually appealing. Water pipes are intended to transport water to different parts of your home, and they must therefore withstand high pressure. Large quantities of water are transported through water pipes, and thus they must be resistant to both rust and the elements that are carried through the pipes. Many times, it is not always just water that ends up in the drains. This can include cotton buds, small pieces of plastic, and much more. This means that it is important to have good copper pipe fittings in your plumbing installations. **Find copper pipe fittings for your needs** To connect copper pipes, you need to use special copper pipe fittings. These copper pipe fittings come in many different models. You can get them in straight versions, as well as for plumbing installations where you need a right-angle bend in your copper pipe. Additionally, you can find various types of fittings that you can also use to connect other types of pipes with copper pipes. When joining pipes and fittings, you can choose to solder or use couplings. You can find copper pipes in two different grades of hardness: - Soft copper pipes that you can easily bend. - Hard copper pipes for installations with long and straight pipe runs. For both types, you can cut, bend, and join the pipes, and you can find them in several different dimensions – typically 8, 10, 15, or 22 millimeters of copper pipe. Therefore, check which thickness you need before you order.

Thus, you will find both plastic-coated and chrome-plated copper pipes in our range. This way, you can still retain the qualities of copper pipes while having a color that suits your needs. Conversely, it is of course also possible to actively use the visual properties of copper pipes in your decor. For example, if you desire a more classic, vintage style in your bathroom or kitchen. It is worth noting that over time, the surface of the copper pipe will acquire a slightly more patinated appearance, but you can also use this to fit your style. Typically, copper pipes and copper pipe fittings are used if you have visible water pipes in the home. Copper pipes are also an economically good choice because copper is a material that is easy to work with and manufacture. Copper pipes do not need to have the same thickness as other iron-containing metals, which makes copper pipes a cheaper option and a less expensive material. Enjoy the benefits of copper pipe fittings. In addition to the economic benefit and the aesthetic expression, copper pipe fittings have other advantages. Here are some more benefits of copper pipe fittings: - They are durable thanks to the properties of copper. - They are resistant to rust. - They are easy to connect to plumbing installations and to work with. - They do not scale up in the same way as other galvanized pipes. Copper pipe fittings are thus both practical and visually appealing, making them an obvious choice for you if you have visible water pipes in your home. **What you need to know before choosing copper pipe fittings** When it comes to copper pipes, you can find different hardness levels. You can therefore both buy soft and hard copper pipes. This means that the hard copper pipes cannot be bent, which you can do with the soft copper pipes. This is important to know because it depends on which type of pipe you should choose and what type of task you are facing. This way, you can choose the right length of copper pipes and also find out if you should use soft or hard copper pipes - or even both. If you are unsure about which type of copper pipe you should choose for your plumbing installation, you can always contact our service center. Here, you can receive professional advice, and you can be sure that you order the right copper pipe fittings. **Buy your copper pipe fittings at Ahlsell** At Ahlsell, we have a wide range of all kinds of plumbing articles of high quality at reasonable prices.

A fiber pen is most visible on metal. Next, secure the copper pipe firmly so you are ready to cut the pipe. **Can I have copper pipes delivered?** Yes, you can.

You need to use a support sleeve in the soft copper pipe; otherwise, the soft pipe is too weak to be tightened together. Once you have tightened the pipes well, you will have a tight and solid joint
