 Innovative aluminum tube fittings and valves for air conditioning and heating systems are now available in the American market. 

 
 
Made of special aluminum alloy, with lead content less than 0.01 per cent, LOCUS's tube fittings and valves are installed using the threaded lok-type fitting connection method, with no welding required. LOCUS fittings and valves provide clear visual confirmation of the installation guaranteeing superior airtight sealing. Requiring less installation time than other conventional solder joint copper fittings, LOCUS products ensure the labor and equipment costs reductions. 
 
 
"Aluminum fittings and valves are widely used in the automotive and electronics industries due to their excellent mechanical properties, light weight, and stable price. It is time to start using the cost effective and eco-friendly aluminum fittings in the commercial and residential air conditioning system market," said IL Geun Kim, President, LOCUS Co., Ltd.
 
 
LOCUS offers a complete line of aluminum fittings and valves, available in different sizes from 1/4 to 3/4 inches. Aluminum fittings can be used in conjunction with different types of tubes, including copper, aluminum, and LOCUS's innovative new polyamide and powder coated aluminum. The product range includes aluminum service valves, union fittings, tube welding nipples, service valve connectors, elbows, and other products.
 
 
The anodized surface of LOCUS fittings increases hardness, durability, corrosion and wear resistance. The ferrules and O-rings were specially designed to be used with R22 and R410A refrigerants and oils guaranteeing zero leakage when used with high and low temperature fluids. 
 
 
Internationally patented aluminum fittings meet the testing standards of UL484, UL1995, ANSI (ASME) B31.3. and designed to meet the highest demands of the air conditioning and heating industries. 
 
 
LOCUS offers polyamide/powder coated aluminum tubes for refrigerant line connections of air conditioning and heating systems. The new products on the market, polyamide coated aluminum tubes and powder coated aluminum tubes are cheaper than conventional copper tubes. Featuring clean design and available in different colors, polyamide coated aluminum tubes have excellent flexibility, low weight, and outstanding durability even when exposed to sunlight, acids, salt, and humidity.
