Quick-Clamp High-Vacuum Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing
- For Use With:
Fittings with Gasket End: Air, Argon, Helium, Nitrogen
All Other Fittings: Air - Temperature Range: 0° to 300° F
- Tubing: Use with 304/304L or 316/316L stainless steel
- Specifications Met: ISO 2861
Instead of a gasket, these fittings have a special ring that is designed for high-vacuum applications, such as vacuum coating and heat treating, leak testing, and analyzing gases. Also known as KF, QF, and NW fittings, they are the most common type of connection in high-vacuum systems. Connect with a clamp and another quick-clamp fitting for fast, easy access to your line. To use fittings in pressure applications, use a pressure-rated ring (sold separately).
304 stainless steel fittings have very good corrosion resistance.
Note: To complete a connection, you’ll need two quick-clamp fittings, a ring, and a clamp (all sold separately).
Fittings with claw-clamp end are often used to connect high-vacuum components with large-diameter connections, such as coating or heat-treating equipment, to components with smaller connections such as gauges, filters, or pumps. Also known as ISO-K fittings, they connect with four claw clamps and a ring (sold separately).
