Galvanized fittings are suitable for potable water and pressure use.  However, galvanized steel will corrode in some environments.

Tip:  To facilitate inserting fittings, immerse the pipe in hot water to soften it slightly.  Do not use any lubricant other than water.  To remove insert fittings, use hot water or a heat gun to heat waterline gently until it is just hot enough (about 150-185°F) to allow it to stretch a little.

Tip:  Slide two pipe clamps facing in opposite directions over the waterline end before inserting the fitting.  After inserting the fitting, position clamps side-by-side but 180° out of alignment.  Tensioning screws will face in the same direction but on opposite sides of the pipe.  Tighten clamps while pipe is still warm.  Do not over-torque.
