High-Pressure Nipples for Compressed Gas

Commonly used in high-pressure welding applications, these nipples connect your tank to the inlet of a pressure regulator. One side has a threaded pipe end and the other side has a rounded end that sits inside a threaded nut (sold separately) so you can make a threaded connection.

Brass nipples have good corrosion resistance and are softer than 316 stainless steel nipples, so they're easier to thread together. Chrome-plated brass nipples have better corrosion and wear resistance than unplated brass nipples and have a bright, shiny appearance. 316 stainless steel nipples have excellent corrosion resistance.

Nipples with filter help keep the line clean by preventing small particles and other impurities from entering your pressure regulator.

Nipples that tighten by hand should be paired with a nut with a plastic grip.

High-Pressure Threaded Fittings for Compressed Gas

Designed to handle high-pressure welding applications, these fittings are commonly used to connect pressure regulators to compressed gas tanks or cylinders. Fittings are also known as CGA (Compressed Gas Association) fittings. They are brass for good corrosion resistance.

Fittings with left-hand threads are identified with a notch in the nut.

Note: Fittings have a CGA number that corresponds to a specific type of gas. Choose a fitting with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components.

Nuts for High-Pressure Nipples for Compressed Gas

Slide a high-pressure hose nipple for compressed gas into one of these nuts to connect a pipe to the inlet of a pressure regulator. They are also known as CGA (Compressed Gas Association) nuts and inlet nuts.

Brass nuts have good corrosion resistance and are softer than 316 stainless steel nuts, so they're easier to thread together. Aluminum-plated brass nuts have better corrosion and wear resistance than unplated brass. 316 stainless steel nuts have excellent corrosion resistance.

Nuts with left-hand threads are identified with a notch.

Note: Nuts have a CGA, BS, or DIN number that corresponds to a specific type of gas. Choose a nut with the same number as your tank and other system components.

Barbed Hose Fittings for Compressed Gas

Commonly used in low-pressure welding applications, these fittings connect downstream of your tank and pressure regulator. Slide the barbed end into rubber hose and secure with a crimp-on hose ferrule. Fittings are brass for good corrosion resistance.

Adapters let you adapt to a threaded end so you can connect welding hose to torches or pressure regulators. They consist of a barbed shaft with a rounded end that sits inside a threaded CGA nut (sold separately) so you can make a threaded hose connection.

Ultra-High-Polish Gasket Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing

For Use With: Argon, Helium, Nitrogen
Temperature Range: -420° to 1000° F
Tubing: Use with 316/316L stainless steel
Compatible With: Swagelok® VCR

The 15 Ra finish on the interior of these fittings creates an ultra-smooth surface. Also known as ultra-high-purity fittings, they are packed in a Class 100 clean room to prevent contamination. They are commonly used in semiconductor applications. Fittings use a metal gasket (sold separately), which generates fewer particles than a rubber gasket and creates a strong seal in high-pressure and high-vacuum applications. Fittings are 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance.
