Dave,

I have never experienced any failures.

This topic has brought up a question.

Is the addition of these 1/2" or 3/4" brass extensions approved and in
compliance with any NFPA standard?
How do you calculate friction loss through these extensions?
How many extensions can be applied to one sprinkler?

Any comments?

Thanks,

Subject: 1/2 brass extensions

We have had a few failures of the 1/2" brass extensions used by Central in
the Omega recall program. Trying to get the name of the manufacture of these
items. It is NOT stamped on them. So far we see two manufactures possible
for the extensions. United Brass Works and K&K Screw Products. They are
almost identical looking parts except one has more threads than the other.
Anyone having any knowledge on how to identify who makes these items??  I
would appreciate any input and hearing from anyone who has experienced any
failures with these parts. 
 
Thanks
