What do you ask for when buying those fittings? Are they for copper pipe or are they for stainless pipe and happen to fit copper? These are exactly what I am looking for..

SwageLok is a brand, there are others... It's just a 3/4" compression union. They work on copper, SS, poly, whatever :handgestures-thumbupleft:

They definitely come in SS, WJ... There's about a hundred thousand of them on the worksite I'm currently on! ;-)

Should have something like that written on it somewhere. This is a different fitting, obviously ;-)
