A degraded or broken dip tube can cause lukewarm water and higher heating bills. Pickup tubes should also be made of heat-resistant plastic to avoid damaging the heater’s sacrificial […]
[ad_1] A carrier tube is a hollow tube that transports fluids and is contained within an outer sheath. It can be made of metal or plastic and is often used in double wall pipes for added protection against leaks. It is also used to protect water and sewage pipes and in manufacturing to keep liquids […]
[ad_1] Supply hoses are plumbing lines that bring water to fixtures in homes and commercial buildings. They can be made of copper, PVC, or CPVC and must be clean, non-reactive, and sized correctly to maintain constant pressure. Different types of plumbing systems use various water supply lines. A supply hose is a plumbing line used […]
[ad_1] Pipe dies are rotary tools used to cut external threads on pipes or tubes. They are available as one-piece cassette tools or two-piece half-shell inserts. Pipe dies are used to join pipes or connect fittings, and are typically tubular in shape and designed to lock into a pipe threading machine or a specially designed […]
[ad_1] A venturi tube narrows to increase the velocity and decrease the pressure of fluid or gas passing through it, known as the venturi effect. It has various uses, including measuring airflow and pumping or atomizing a secondary fluid. The most effective venturi profiles have a gradual change in profile to minimize drag. A venturi […]
[ad_1] Fallopian tube damage can cause female infertility and can be caused by various medical conditions such as endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy, cysts, tumors, or surgical procedures. Treatment options vary depending on the cause and severity of the damage. Damage to the fallopian tubes is a leading cause of female infertility and can […]
[ad_1] Drainage pipes remove water from an area to prevent flooding, erosion, and damage. Different types of pipes are used depending on the situation, such as PVC for durability, concrete for heavy piping, and flexible plastic for easy installation. Ceramic is also an option but is more likely to break. A drainage pipe is a […]
[ad_1] Tube doors are lightweight metal frames that increase visibility and reduce weight in vehicles. They can be purchased or made by those with metalworking skills, but their legality varies by region. They are useful for offroading but can be dangerous in a crash. Installation is straightforward but may require assistance with electrical wiring. Tube […]
[ad_1] A communication pipe connects a property to a municipal water supply, with maintenance being the responsibility of the water and sewer company. Warning signs of a leak include soft soil and puddles. Utilities may temporarily shut off water to do maintenance work, and homeowners can request a utility map to avoid damaging buried lines. […]
[ad_1] Tube fenders are used on off-road vehicles to prevent them from getting caught on obstacles like rocks or tree stumps. They are made from mild steel or chrome molly pipe and can also protect the vehicle’s body panels. They are also used on ice racing motorcycles to protect other riders and motorcycles from damage […]
[ad_1] A pitot static tube measures air speed and altitude in airplanes by comparing the gauge pressure of air flowing into the tube with that flowing around it. It consists of two tubes, one for total pressure and the other for ambient pressure. The tube is mounted outside the aircraft and equipped with heating elements […]
[ad_1] Tube flowmeters measure liquid or gas pressure in pipes. Open channel flowmeters are used for non-hazardous liquids, orifices use a disc to restrict fluid flow, venturi tubes create a bottleneck for more accurate measurement, and pitot tubes measure gas pressure. More complex forms exist. A tube flowmeter measures the pressure of the flow of […]
[ad_1] Endotracheal tubes are flexible plastic tubes inserted through the throat and into the lungs to assist with breathing. They should only be inserted by qualified healthcare personnel to avoid complications such as regurgitation or inadequate ventilation. If long-term artificial ventilation is required, a tracheostomy is recommended. An endotracheal tube is a flexible plastic tube […]
[ad_1] The head tube is where the fork of a motorcycle or bicycle is attached to the frame, and it houses bearings for steering. It can be made of various materials, and the angle affects fork rake and steering. Headsets include bearing cups, bearings, and races. A head tube is a part of the frame […]
[ad_1] Pipe sweating refers to the condensation that forms on cold pipes due to moisture in the air. Insulation or a dehumidifier can reduce this. It can also refer to a method of welding pipes together using a propane torch and solder. Pipe sweats is a term used to mean a couple of different things. […]
[ad_1] Teflon® tubing, made of poly(tetrafluoroethylene), is strong, flexible, and resistant to high pressure, heat, chemicals, and biofilm formation. It is used in various applications, including brake lines, biological research, and gas lines. Custom lengths and types are available from manufacturers.
