Anybody have any input as to pre-tinned fittings? I have seen them in the big box shops, as well as plumbing supply houses.
They are considerably expensive on a percentage basis as compared to the regular copper fittings.
A regular 1/2 copper elbow is 18 cents, the pre-tinned are 1.20 here in the Tampa Bay area.
These pre-tinned fittings still have to be cleaned and fluxed. In that regard they don't offer any time savings.
Has anybody used them ? Are they reliable? Is there enough solder in them? etc.
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
