Precision Extreme-Pressure Stainless Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings
Made to tighter tolerances than other stainless steel pipe fittings, these are also known as instrumentation fittings. The male threads are rolled for extra strength in extreme-pressure applications. Fittings are commonly used to connect equipment in gas and hydraulic fluid lines. They are 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance.
Female x male 90° elbow adapters are also known as street elbows.

Miniature Medium-Pressure Stainless Steel Threaded Pipe Fittings
When space is at a premium choose these compact fittings. Though small in size, they have the strength to handle medium-pressure applications. Fittings are stainless steel for very good corrosion resistance.
Female x male 90° elbow adapters are also known as street elbows.
Metric, BSPP, and UN/UNF (SAE Straight) male threads have a gasket to protect against leaks. Made from fluoroelastomer, these gaskets resist chemicals, including benzene, butyl alcohol, and ethylene glycol. UN/UNF (SAE Straight) threads are also known as O-ring boss threads.

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. NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.

Low-Temperature/High-Pressure D.O.T. Push-to-Connect Tube Fittings for Air
- Temperature Range: -40° to 200° F
- Tubing: Use with hard (Durometer 65D) nylon plastic
- Specifications Met:
Cartridges: D.O.T. FMVSS 571, SAE J2494-4, SAE J1131
All other fittings: D.O.T. FMVSS 571
Connect high-pressure brake lines with fittings that won’t crack in frigid temperatures. Often used on commercial trucks and trailers, these fittings meet Department of Transportation FMVSS 571 safety standards. Also known as instant fittings, they connect to tubing with a simple push, and an internal gripping ring and O-ring will hold the tubing tight. A built-in tube support slips inside the tubing to prevent it from collapsing. To disconnect, push on the release ring and pull the tubing out of the fitting. All have good corrosion resistance.

Brass Compression Tube Fittings for Air and Water
- For Use With: Air, Lubricated Air, Water
- Temperature Range: See table
- Tubing: Use with firm or hard (Durometer 1A-95A or Rockwell 15T 1-15T 60) nylon plastic, polyethylene plastic, polypropylene plastic or polyurethane rubber
- Specifications Met: SAE J512, except metric sizes
A single sleeve (ferrule) compresses the tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a strong seal. The nut and sleeve are included. Fittings are also known as flareless fittings. They are brass for good corrosion resistance.
Use tube supports (sold separately) when attaching fittings to plastic and rubber tubing to prevent the tube from collapsing.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.

- Temperature Range:
Inch: -65° to 250° F
Metric: -40° to 250° F - Tubing:
Tube supports with 135 psi @ 75° F or 165 psi @ 75° F max. pressures: Use with firm or soft polyethylene plastic or PVC plastic
Tube supports with all other max. pressures: Use with firm or soft (Durometer 1A-95A) polyethylene plastic or polypropylene plastic
- For Use With:
Short nuts: Air, Water, Lubricated Air
Long nuts: Air, Water, Cutting Oil, Fuel Oil, Hydraulic Fluid, Mineral Oil - Temperature Range: See table
- Tubing:
Short nuts: Use with firm or hard (Durometer 1A-95A or Rockwell 15T 1-15T 60) nylon plastic, polyethylene plastic, polypropylene plastic, or polyurethane rubber

Quick-Assembly Brass Compression Tube Fittings for Air and Water
- Temperature Range: 0° to 150° F
- Tubing: Fittings with acetal plastic sleeves: Use with (firm or hard) polyethylene plastic or polypropylene plastic
Fittings with brass sleeves: Use with (firm or hard) nylon plastic, polyethylene plastic or polypropylene plastic
These fittings include a nut with a built-in sleeve (ferrule), so there’s no need to remove the nut for assembly. The sleeve compresses the tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a strong seal. Fittings are also known as flareless fittings. They are brass for good corrosion resistance.
Tube supports are recommended if you want to use the fittings with soft polyethylene, polypropylene, or PVC plastic tubing. They prevent the tube from collapsing.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.
- For Use With: Air, Lubricated Air
- Temperature Range: -65° to 250° F
- Tubing:
Tube supports with 135 psi @ 75° F or 165 psi @ 75° F max. pressures: Use with firm or soft polyethylene plastic or PVC plastic
Tube supports with all other max. pressures: Use with firm or soft (Durometer 1A-95A) polyethylene plastic or polypropylene plastic
