LONG BODY

A long body brass tap serves several functions and is typically used in applications where durability and longevity are required, such as in plumbing systems for both residential and commercial use. The long body of the tap makes it ideal for connecting to pipes in settings where extra reach or clearance is needed. Here's a breakdown of its function:

Water Flow Control: Like any tap, a long body brass tap is used to control the flow of water (or other fluids) from a pipe or tank. It usually has a lever or knob that can be turned to start or stop the water flow.

Durability and Strength: The brass material is corrosion-resistant and provides strength, making it a long-lasting choice for areas that need to withstand constant use or exposure to water and air. The long body adds to the sturdiness, ensuring the tap doesn’t easily break under pressure.

Extended Reach: The extended design of the tap allows for more flexibility in installation, such as reaching deep into sinks, outdoor irrigation setups, or other plumbing fixtures where a standard tap might not provide sufficient clearance.

Temperature and Pressure Resistance: Brass is also resistant to heat, making it suitable for both hot and cold water applications. Its long body adds to the structural integrity in systems that may experience higher pressures.

Versatility: These taps are often found in industrial, agricultural, and household applications where standard taps would be too short to effectively manage the water flow.
