Sleeves for Nickel-Plated Brass Compression Fittings for Copper Tubing

- For Use With: Air, Cutting Oil, Diesel Fuel, Ethyl Alcohol, Fuel Oil, Gasoline, Hydraulic Fluid, Isopropyl Alcohol, Lubricants, Mineral Oil, Natural Gas, Steam, Water
- Temperature Range: -75° to 550° F
- Tubing: Use with copper
- Specifications Met: DIN 3861
Use these sleeves with compression nuts and fittings to create a strong seal on copper tubing. Made of brass, they gently bite into tubing as you tighten the nut, and have good corrosion resistance. All meet DIN 3861, which is an international standard for tube fitting dimensions.

Nuts for Nickel-Plated Brass Compression Fittings for Copper Tubing

- For Use With: Air, Cutting Oil, Diesel Fuel, Ethyl Alcohol, Fuel Oil, Gasoline, Hydraulic Fluid, Isopropyl Alcohol, Lubricants, Mineral Oil, Natural Gas, Steam, Water
- Temperature Range: -75° to 550° F
- Tubing: Use with copper
- Specifications Met: DIN 3870
Create a strong seal on copper tubing when you couple these nuts with compression sleeves and fittings. Made of nickel-plated brass, they resist corrosion better than plain brass. All meet DIN 3870, which is an international standard for tube fitting dimensions.

Sleeves for Vibration-Resistant Compression Fittings for Copper Tubing

- For Use With: Air, Cutting Oil, Diesel Fuel, Fuel Oil, Gasoline, Hydraulic Fluid, Lubricants, Mineral Oil, Water
- Temperature Range: -30° to 270° F, except fluoroelastomer rubber sleeves are -15° to 450° F
- Tubing: Use with copper
Use these sleeves with vibration-resistant compression nuts and fittings. They are rubber instead of metal, so they cushion the tubing and absorb vibration while creating a tight seal. They are also known as ferrules.
