Quick-Clamp Through-Wall Fittings for High-Vacuum Chambers
- For Use With: See table
- Environment Temperature Range: 32° to 300° F
- Process Temperature Range: -325° to 995° F
- Tubing: Use with 304/304L or 316/316L stainless steel
- Specifications Met: ISO 2861
Transfer liquids and gases into high-vacuum chambers with these assembled fittings, also known as feedthroughs. Their quick-clamp (ISO-KF) connections are easier to install and remove than bolt-on flanges. This makes them a good choice for systems that need frequent cleaning, repairs, and setup changes, such as those in teaching and research labs. These fittings meet ISO 2861, which means they’re made to strict dimensional standards that ensure vacuum-tight connections. Made of stainless steel and aluminum, these fittings resist rusting. They are not for use in pressure applications.
These fittings are ready to install and include quick-clamp fittings, metal tubing, and Yor-Lok tube fittings at each end. The Yor-Lok fittings include a nut and two sleeves that grip your system’s stainless steel tubing. To complete the quick-clamp connection, you’ll need a clamp and ring (each sold separately).

Flanged Through-Wall Fittings for Ultra-High-Vacuum Chambers
- For Use With: See table
- Environment Temperature Range: 32° to 300° F
- Process Temperature Range: -325° to 995° F
- Tubing: Use with 304/304L or 316/316L stainless steel
Bolt these fittings onto your ultra-high-vacuum chamber to transfer liquids and gases inside. Also known as feedthroughs, they come assembled with a flanged (CF) fitting, metal tubing, and two Yor-Lok tube fittings. Their bolt-together connection forms the tightest seal of any fitting type, so you can use them in semiconductor manufacturing, surface analysis experiments, and even research with particle accelerators. Made of stainless steel and copper, these fittings resist rusting. These fittings are not for use in pressure applications.
To complete the flanged connection, you’ll need a gasket and bolt kit (each sold separately). The Yor-Lok fittings on each end include a nut and two sleeves that grip your system’s stainless steel tubing.

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 is designed to sit 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.
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.
