How compression fittings work
I've added an extra paragraph on how they work, but I'm not sure it's much clearer. A pair of illustrations would replace many words, if anyone wants to make them. 92.234.8.173 (talk) 20:44, 2 June 2009 (UTC)Josh

Needs work
This description really only covers the plumbing/conduit side of compression fittings, with very little information about the chemical/gas/R&D/etc side. For instance the description of the compression ring as being brass may be correct for standard household plumbing but industrial applications may use stainless steel.
I'm really not sure how you describe that side of the uses. Technically it is plumbing, but common usage of the word plumbing implies household low pressure water lines, not something like a 2k PSI hydrogen line.
I also wonder if there is any need to add some of the basic "rules" of compression fittings, like how close you can put a bend, or using makeup tools to set the ferrules. While this may seem like simply practical knowledge, they are all based on a fundamental understanding of how compression fittings work --Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.35.225.227 (talk) 14:59, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
Computer watercooling
A different form of these are used in computer watercooling. Should it be added to the article?109.153.44.18 (talk) 08:20, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
Compression fittings and high-pressure / hydraulic / brake-line use?
Compression fittings are said to not be allowed for use in applications such as automotive brake lines - but there is little in the way of direct documentation or "rules" to that effect.
Is there anything known (in an authoritative, technical or scientific sense) that can be said about the useful working limits of compression fittings when it comes to pressure? Is this where the prohibition of compression fittings for brake-line systems comes from? -- Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.94.25.198 (talk) 03:43, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
