Swagelok Fittings are Better by Design
Swagelok developed the original two-ferrule tube fitting in 1947, and with over 200 active patents worldwide, we continue to improve our proprietary design for use in thousands of applications.
HOW WE OUTPERFORM
Swagelok tube fittings have a grip-type design that uses a unique "hinging and colleting" action to achieve optimal performance in three key areas:
-
- Tube grip: hinging and colleting action provides more direct tube contact/gripping support.
- Gas seal: burnishing/polishing action of the front ferrule creates concentrated zones of contact on the tube and on the body bevel for a stronger seal.
- Vibration resistance: the colleting region better isolates stress risers at the tube grip to resist bending, deflection, and vibration.
ABOUT SAT 12
This unique low temperature carburization process produces tool steel like hardness and strength in the ferrule without sacrificing corrosion resistance or material ductility so you can rest assured that Swagelok fittings will keep your team safe.
INSTALLATION IS EASY
-
- Uses standard tools and utilizes reasonably less torque than other competitive brands
- Swagelok tube fittings come fully assembled and connections can be reassembled many times
TESTED TO EXTREMES
-
- Swagelok performs continuous, rigorous testing on thousands of samples of production tube fittings to ensure only highly reliable components
- We publish the most comprehensive book of tube fitting Product Test Reports (PTRs) in the industry - Click here to download.
