This eliminates the electrolytic action that corrodes tubing caused by a dissimilar metal meeting a fitting. Low density and softness of plastic gives JACO fittings the ability to absorb mechanical and acoustical vibrations. Low resistance to flow due to the smooth internal surface of the fittings. Resistance to scale buildup. JACO Male Connectors With Ferrule Nut Nylon
