Bismuth fittings, also referred to as bismuth-based alloys, offer remarkable corrosion resistance due to the presence of bismuth. Their inherent corrosion protection makes them suitable for applications where exposure to harsh environments or corrosive substances poses a problem - from industrial settings and marine environments alike, helping maintain integrity for extended periods and thus cutting maintenance costs and increasing longevity.
In addition to corrosion resistance, bismuth fittings boast excellent machinability. This allows precise shaping and customization that enables intricate designs or configurations with tight tolerances to be produced easily by manufacturers, increasing versatility and applicability across various industries.
Weldability of bismuth fittings is another notable characteristic, providing seamless integration into larger assemblies or structures. Their weldability enables efficient connections that do not compromise material integrity, this characteristic increases their adaptability in fabrication processes for efficient manufacturing and construction operations.
Bismuth fittings find applications across various industries due to their special combination of properties. From plumbing systems and automotive components, to electronic enclosures and medical devices, and even aerospace applications where reliability and performance are of utmost importance, bismuth fittings fulfill different functional requirements while withstanding harsh environments with great success.
Bismuth fittings find use across numerous industries and applications. Most commonly seen in plumbing systems where their corrosion resistance enables long-term performance for water conveyance systems, automotive fuel systems where bismuth provides durable connections able to withstand exposure to fuels, electronics where these fittings protect sensitive devices from electromagnetic interference; medical equipment which utilizes these fittings due to being compatible with sterilization processes for optimal hygiene and patient safety, as well as their uses within healthcare settings where bismuth offers compatibility for sterilization processes that ensure hygiene and patient safety within healthcare environments.

Forging
Making method of forged fittings,using forging machine bevels the pipe end or extension, reduce the outside diameter.
Rolling Wheel
Butt weld fittings, putting the core in the pipe. Then pushing the external by roller and processing the rim.
Stamping
Using tapered core to expand the pipe end to the required size and shape in the punching machine.
Bending
For making elbow and bend fittings. There are three commonly methods. One is stretching , another is stamping , the third is roller , there are 3-4 rollers.
Bulging
A rubber is placed in the tube and the top with a punch compression, then the pipe is bulged forming; Another method is hydraulic bulging forming.
