To assure efficient performance during fluid transfer problems, there is need for dry brake fittings to be maintained periodically. It is also apparent that if some measures are taken during usage of dry brake fittings, leaks can be avoided, safety can be achieved and further damage of these fittings can be prevented.

Dry brake fittings can be maintained primarily through regular examinations. Wear due to abrasion, corrosion, or fracturing of the fittings can be checked for on the dry brake fittings that are subject to rough activities. Also check for the presence of cracks, pitting , or other surface irregularities that may compromise the integrity of the fitting.

Maintenance also includes cleaning the fittings. The performance of dry brakes may dwindle due to dirt or foreign materials that have built up over time. Remove any build-up around the fittings and ensure that all connection points are clean with no obstructions using appropriate cleaning solutions and tools.

While fitting and uninstalling dry brakes, care must be taken to avoid cross-threading of the fittings and over-tightening them. Ensure proper sealing by using correct tools that are in line with the manufacturer's specifications. If the fittings are over-tightened, they may break and affect the sealing capacity of the fitting.

In addition, there’s the advantage of having spare fittings readily available in case of sudden wear or failure. This would help in reducing losses in your operational activities since any arising issues could easily be sorted out quickly. 

Lastly, do not forget to check the manufacturer’s manual for some guidance on how best to take care of your brake fittings. Looking at these practices allows you to maximize the reliability and operations of dry brake fittings which will in turn guarantee efficiency and safety in fluid transfer system operations.
