New Union-Cinch Pipe Fitting THE new Union-Cinch pipe fittings were designedbecause of the difficulty of producing a satisfactorymechanical job of small piping with the ordinary thread-ed pipe and tapped fittings and due to the fact that it ismore practical to do the work of threading in the shopthan in the field. In the first place, it seems probable that the work ofthreading pipe and getting a good fit for the threadscould be accomplished at a factory or in the shop much. better than it is often done by means of a set of diesin the hands of more or less inexperienced workers, whoare often obliged to thread a piece by holding it witha Stillson wrench while they try to run the die on byhand. After all the care possible has been exercisedin making up a job where the pressures are rather severe,it is unusual not to find a number of leaks; and it hasbeen noticed that these leaks usually occur where it isleast convenient to get at them, to give the pipe anotherturn to take them up. These new fittings are made in sizes correspondingto standard iron pipe up to one inch, and are especiallydesigned for use in connection with the oil pumps andoilers manufactured by the Sight Feed Oil Pump Com-pany, Milwaukee, Wis., who are manufacturers of thesenew Union Cinch fittings. It is possible to use ordinary rough pipe with these fit-tings, if care is exercised in filing the ends of the piperound and smooth; but the builders of the
