  1. New Mexico FFA Agricultural Mechanics Career Development Event Plumbing

  2. Agriculture, Food and Natural Resource Standards Addressed! • PST.01.02. Apply physical science and engineering principles to design, implement and improve safe and efficient mechanical systems in AFNR situations. • PST.01.02.02.a. Identify the tools, machines and equipment needed to construct and/or fabricate a project in AFNR.

  3. Boiler Drain • Used to release waste liquids from some type of storage vessel such as a hot water heater.

  4. Chain Wrench • Used to hold pipe and other round objects and for tightening or loosening of pipe and fittings.

  5. Check Valve • A check valve allows liquids to only flow in one direction.

  6. Clear Vinyl Tubing • Clear Vinyl tubing is used to carry fluids that are under high pressure, very flexible which eliminates fittings.

  7. Compression Repair Coupling • Should be used to make temporary repairs on PVC and metal pipes where a break or leak occurs.

  8. Copper Hot Water Heater Plumbing Pipe. • Used to attach a hot water heater to inlet and outlet valves.

  9. Copper Tubing Cutter Used to cut and de-burr copper tubing.

  10. Drum Auger • Quite often referred to as a plumbers snake. May be electric or hand powered and is used to clear stopped drains.

  11. Flange • A rim or collar used to hold a pipe or shaft in place.

  12. Float Valve • Used for controlling the water level in a storage reservoir.

  13. High Pressure Tubing • Used to prevent hose rupture on implements such as sprayer and power washers.

  14. Hose Bib • A threaded male end faucet also known as a wall hydrant

  15. Lawn Faucet/Sillcock • A threaded female end faucet generally used on the exterior wall of a building.

  16. Gate Valve • A valve in which the line-closing element is a gate that is raised or lowered to regulate flow

  17. Ball Valve • A valve that uses a ball to seal against the seat

  18. Globe or Stop Valve • A valve in which the closing element is a sphere, or a flat or rounded gasket, which is moved into or onto a round port

  19. “O” Ring • An “O” ring is used to form a seal between two metal parts.

  20. Pipe Plug • Closes off the end of a pipe similar to a cap but fits inside the pipe. May also be used on a flat surface such as an oil pan, engine block.

  21. Pipe Cap • Closes off the end of a pipe by threading on to the outside of the pipe.

  22. Pipe Thread Compound • A putty applied to pipe threads before fittings are tightened. Aids in forming a water tight seal.

  23. Pipe Vise • Used to hold pipe securely when cutting, threading, or reaming.

  24. Plastic Pipe • Black in color and comes in rolls. Size may vary and it is joined together using clamps and fittings. Relatively inexpensive and used when covering a great distance.

  25. Plastic/PVC Pipe Cutter • A plier like tool designed to cut plastic and PVC pipe.

  26. Pipe Dies • Used to thread a variety of sizes of pipe manually, uses a ratcheting handle.

  27. Pressure Switch • An electric control mechanism that activates a pump when water levels drop in a storage reservoir. Also used to activate air compressors.

  28. Propane Torch • Generally used to heat copper tubing for sweating purposes.

  29. PVC Coupling • A glue on fitting used to connect two pieces of pipe.

  30. PVC Elbow • May be a 45 degree or 90 degree, used to form a corner in pipe.

  31. PVC Pipe • Rigid plastic pipe, generally white in color, used for a variety of plumbing purposes. Fast glue based assembly.

  32. Rigid Copper Tubing • May be used for water and some gases. It is normally connected with sweat on fittings.

  33. Stop and Waste Valve • This type of valve allows you to turn off the flow of liquid and drain the system.

  34. Street Ell or elbow • Used to connect two different sizes of pipe while making a forty five or ninety degree turn. Generally found in black and galvanized pipe.

  35. Submersible Pump • An electric powered pump that is placed inside well casing to pump water to the surface.

  36. Sucker Rod • Rods used to connect a wind mill to the pump at the bottom of the well casing, or a pump jack to a pump in the casing.

  37. Sump Pump • A pump that is used to remove water that has accumulated in some type of pit.

  38. Sweat On Copper Tubing Fittings • Copper fittings that are connected using heat and solder rather than threads

  39. Tee • Used to connect three joints of pipe. May be found in black, galvanized or PVC.

  40. Teflon Tape • A thin, flexible tape attached that seals threads to form a water or gas tight seal. Used in place of pipe thread compound.

  41. Thermcouple • A sensor for measuring temperatures. Used in hot water heaters and furnaces to activate the heating elements in gas units.
