How to Identify and Measure Fittings

Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

A nut with two sleeves (ferrules) gives these fittings extra gripping power. The sleeves bite into tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a strong seal. Also known as instrumentation fittings, they are made to tight tolerances for use in high-precision applications. They are compatible with Swagelok®, Let-Lok, and A-Lok fittings.

316 stainless steel fittings have excellent corrosion resistance.

Vibration-Resistant Compression Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing

For Use With: Acetylene, Air, Butane, Compressed Air, Cutting Oil, Diesel Fuel, Fuel Oil, Gasoline, Helium, Hydraulic Fluid (Petroleum Base), Kerosene, Mineral Oil, Natural Gas, Nitrogen, Propane, Soap Solutions
Temperature Range: -10° to 400° F
Tubing: Use with seamless 316Ti or 321 stainless steel
Specifications Met: DIN 3861

Instead of a metal sleeve (ferrule), these fittings have a rubber sleeve that cushions tubing and absorbs vibration to maintain a tight seal, even when connected to large pumps. However, rubber sleeves can’t withstand temperatures as high as metal ones. To create the strong seal, tighten the included nut. These fittings are made of 316 stainless steel, so they have excellent corrosion resistance. They’re also known as flareless fittings. All meet DIN 3861, which is an international standard for compression tube fitting specifications.

Solder-Connect Fittings for Copper Tubing

Temperature Range: 32° to 200° F

Solder these fittings to copper tubing or the tube end of another fitting for a permanent, leak-tight connection. They are also known as sweat fittings. Fittings have good corrosion resistance. To adhere to safety standards for drinking water systems, use fittings that meet NSF/ANSI 61 or EN 1057.

Copper tube size is the accepted designation of the copper tubing industry, not the actual tube OD.

Straight Connectors with Center Stop, Female Socket-Connect Tube

For Use With: Drinking Water
Tubing: See table

Fittings with center stop have a small internal ridge that prevents the tubing from sliding all the way through the fitting.

Compression Fittings for Copper Tubing

For Use With: Air, Cutting Oil, Fuel Oil, Hydraulic Fluid, Mineral Oil, Water
Temperature Range: See Table
Tubing: Use with copper
Specifications Met: See Table

Create a strong connection without heating, flaring, or soldering. These fittings have a single sleeve (ferrule or olive) that bites into tubing as you tighten the nut. Both the nut and sleeve are included. Also known as single ferrule fittings, they are easier to install than yor-lok fittings which have two ferrules. They’re often used in low to medium pressure applications, such as plumbing and compressed air systems, which don’t require the strength of a yor-lok fitting. Compression fittings for copper tubing can withstand higher pressures than compression fittings for plastic and rubber tubing. Made of brass, they have good corrosion resistance.

To connect a compression fitting to tube, slide the nut and sleeve onto the tube. Then push the tube into the fitting until it butts against the back of the fitting. Tighten the nut onto the fitting to compress the sleeve.

Threaded connections can be taken apart as needed for maintenance and repair.

With a nickel-plated finish, these compression fittings resist corrosion better than plain brass fittings. They have a single sleeve (ferrule) made of plain brass that gently bites into copper tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a strong seal. The nut and sleeve are included. These fittings are also known as flareless fittings. All meet DIN standards for tube fitting dimensions.

Push-to-Connect Tube Fittings for Drinking Water

Gasket

Temperature Range: 35° to 150° F
Tubing: See table
Specifications Met: NSF/ANSI 61

Made of moisture-resistant acetal, these fittings won't absorb water and lose strength, even in high-humidity environments. Also known as instant fittings, they connect to tubing with a push, and an internal gripping ring and O-ring hold the tubing tight. To disconnect, push on the release ring and pull the tubing out of the fitting. All meet NSF/ANSI 61 for use in drinking water systems.

BSPP male threads have a gasket to protect against leaks.

No need for expensive crimping tools—these fittings make air conditioning and refrigeration assemblies with clamps. Instead of a crimper, they use two clamps that you tighten against a cage on your fitting with pliers. Both fitting ends swivel until tightened, so you don't have to rotate the entire hose during installation. The cage and clamps stretch out after use, so they shouldn't be used again.

Straight adapter kits include everything you need to connect one end to aluminum tubing. Braze the fitting to your tube with one of the braze rings. To prevent leaks, slip an O-ring on after the brazed joint cools. To connect these fittings to a hose, you’ll need a cage, clamps, and hose clamp pliers.
