A union nut, also known as a coupling nut, is a type of fastener used to join two pieces of threaded pipe or tubing together. It is typically made of brass or other corrosion-resistant material and has a hexagonal shape so that it can be tightened with a wrench. Union nuts are often used in situations where it is not possible or desirable to solder the pipes together, such as in underground or wet applications.

A union is a type of fitting that allows for two or more pipes to be joined together. Unions are typically used in situations where it would be difficult or impossible to disconnect the pipes for maintenance or repairs. For example, unions are often used in underground piping systems where it would be impractical to dig up the entire pipe line in order to make a repair.

There are a few different ways to attach a tailpiece, depending on the type of instrument. For a violin or viola, the most common method is to screw the tailpiece onto the endpin. You will need to remove the endpin before you can do this. Once the endpin is removed, align the holes in the tailpiece with the holes in the body of the instrument, and then screw them together. Make sure that the screws are tight so that the tailpiece does not come loose.If your instrument has an adjustable bridge, you will need to remove the bridge before attaching the tailpiece. To do this, first loosen the strings until they are slack. Then, gently lift up on the bridge from both ends until it comes free. Be careful not to let it fall as it can be damaged easily. Once the bridge is removed, align the holes in thetailpiece with those in the body of your instrument and screw them together as before.There are also some instruments that have a metal plate or strip running along their length called a “saddle.” The saddle serves as an attachment point for bridges and other parts, and is usually found at either end of an instrument’s body. If your instrument has a saddle, you will need to remove it before attachingthe tailpiece by unscrewing any screws that hold it in place. Once removed, alignthe holes in thetailpiece with those in your instrument’s body and screw them
