férula/casquillo/manguito / anillo de compresión Explanation: Compression fittings are used in plumbing and electrical conduit systems to join two tubes or thin-walled pipes together. In instances where two pipes made of dissimilar materials are to be joined (most commonly PVC and copper), the fittings will also be made of one or more compatible materials appropriate for the connection. Compression fittings for attaching tubing (piping) commonly have ferrules (also known as olives) in them. The compression fitting is composed of an outer compression nut and an inner ring called a compression ring. In the UK, this brass ring is referred to as a ferrule or olive. This is usually made of brass or copper. When the nut is tightened, it clamps down on the ferrule, causing it to conform to the circumference of the pipe. Ferrules vary in shape and material but are most commonly in the shape of a beveled ring and are most commonly made out of brass or according to the pipe material. To work properly, the ferrule must be oriented correctly. Typically the ferrule is fitted such that the longest sloping face of the ferrule faces away from the nut. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_fitting |
