After whale-watching in Monterey Bay and a bayside meal at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. on Monterey's Cannery Row, we headed south on Highway 1. We twice diverted within the few miles between Monterey and Carmel to the 17-Mile Drive, which winds past Pebble Beach.
Compression fittings work by the compression of an âoliveâ between two tapered surfaces and the pipe itself. The two surfaces are the body of the fitting (be it a valve, connector or any other type) and the nut. Using a spanner and a pair of grips the nut is tightened. This exerts pressure on the olive and bites it onto the pipe. Compression fittings work well if the pipe is clean and cut properly.
Compression Molding. Compression molding is a process that involves taking a rubber compound or mixed raw material and creating pre-forms in the basic shape of the end product. The pre-forms provide a surplus of material to be placed in the cavity, thus ensuring a total cavity fill.pplications of compression molding range from simple o-ring drive belts to complex brake diaphragms with diameters of more than 10 inches. Timco can also offer a variety of other molded rubber products through compression molding.
