  Yorkshire Fittings - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yorkshire Fittings are a proprietary range of pre-soldered capillary connectors for joining copper pipes used in plumbing.
To obtain perfect joins, clean the inside of the fitting and the outside of the copper pipe using coarse steel wool, apply flux paste, then insert the pipe into the fitting and apply heat from a portable propane torch until a ring of solder shows at the edges of the fitting.
The fittings come in a great variety of configurations, such as Tee-pieces, straight couplers, elbows or bends, reducers (to join pipes of different diameters), stop-ends, and there are also versions with screw threads (male or female) at one end to fit taps and galvanized iron pipes.

 Chariot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Apart from the iron wheel rims and iron fittings of the hub, it was constructed from wood and wicker-work.
The central pole was probably attached to the middle of the axle, though it appears to spring from the front of the basket.
At the end of the pole was the yoke, which consisted of two small saddles fitting the necks of the horses, and fastened by broad bands round the chest.

 Plumbing
Copper pipes are usually joined with the use of compression fittings[?] or soldered[?] (either by hand or using Yorkshire Fittings).
High strength plastic piping is sometimes used for both mains water and gas feeds, its main strengths being its resistance to the corrosive effects of being underground and its light weight.
Compression fittings are common when the plastic must connect with metallic pipes or fixtures.

 soldering End feed solder fittings
End feed solder fittings are considerably harder to use than solder ring fittings and so for ease of use I would recommend solder ring fittings for any DIY task.
These fittings are simply a piece of copper tube that is larger than the diameter of the pipe to be joined and require a coil of solder to make a good joint.
Point the flame from the heat gun to the fitting as this is where the heat is needed.

“Yorkshire Fittings Engineers had worked out several potential schemes for how best to proceed, bearing in mind that they would not want to disrupt production, knew what management information they wanted to produce and had some ideas on systems architecture,” says Dean.
Yorkshire Fittings saw this as critically important, as production downtime is something its market cannot tolerate.
Additionally Yorkshire Fittings had invested in Mitsubishi E900 HMIs (human machine interfaces) to provide local process visualisation and management.

 Soldered Pipe Joints UK : Diy Hints, Tips & Advice : Diy Doctor
There are two types of fitting to make a soldered pipe joint, one which comes with a ring of solder already inside each end of the fitting, called a Yorkshire fitting, and the other, an end feed fitting.
First clean both the pipe and the fitting, inside and out, with wire wool until it is bright and shiny.
Then "dry fit" as much of the pipework together as you can, place all the pieces together where you want them and remember, with Yorkshire fittings you cannot just heat one end of the joint.
