- Temperature Range: -420° to 1000° F
- Tubing: Use with 316/316L stainless steel
- Compatible With: Swagelok® VCR
Polished to at least a 15 Ra finish on the inside, these fittings have an ultra-smooth interior surface that helps prevent contamination. Also known as ultra-high-purity fittings, they’re packed in a Class 100 clean room, cleaned, and double bagged. 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.
To assemble, place a gasket between the gasket ends before gently rotating the female-threaded fitting onto the male-threaded fitting. Tighten until 1/8 of a turn past finger tight.
Choose threaded fittings to attach directly to other fittings. Or, choose one of the following types of fittings to attach directly to tubing:
Butt-weld fittings allow for a smooth, flush connection that provides maximum flow.
Yor-Lok fittings have two sleeves that bite into tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a strong steal without the need for welding. They're also known as instrumentation fittings.
Tube stem fittings connect to Yor-Lok fittings (sold separately).

Retaining
Tabs
Nickel gaskets are softer than stainless steel gaskets, so they won’t wear down sealing surfaces as much, and they’re easier to tighten. They’re reactive to carbon monoxide and ozone, so they shouldn’t be used with those chemicals.
Hard and heat resistant, stainless steel gaskets can be used in a wider range of applications than nickel gaskets such as carbon monoxide and ozone. However, they’re harder to tighten than nickel gaskets, and they’ll wear down sealing surfaces more quickly.
Silver-plated stainless steel gaskets are softer than unfinished stainless steel gaskets, so they won’t wear down sealing surfaces as much, and they’re easier to tighten. However, they oxidize when exposed to air, and silver particles might flake off during assembly.
Gaskets with retaining tabs stay in place during installation, so you don’t have to hold the gasket while fastening fittings together. This also means they’re less likely to scratch or nick your fittings by rotating during installation.

Cleaned and Bagged Pressure-Regulating Valves for Air and Inert Gas
- For Use With: Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon, Helium, Neon
- Temperature Range: -40° to 165° F
Often used for oxygen service and other high-purity applications, these valves are cleaned and bagged to meet CGA G-4.1 standards to prevent contamination. They automatically reduce a high, variable inlet pressure to a lower, stable outlet pressure. Adjust the outlet pressure within the range. Valves have two gauge ports. They are no-bleed style, so they keep process gases contained in the valve.

Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating Valves for Air and Inert Gas
- For Use With: See Table
- Temperature Range: -20° to 120° F
These valves automatically reduce a high inlet pressure from compressed gas tanks to a lower, stable outlet pressure. All have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. Valves have a gauge to monitor outlet pressure and a gauge to monitor inlet pressure from the tank.
Choose a valve with a maximum outlet pressure that’s approximately twice your application’s normal operating pressure. Your operating pressure should never exceed 75% of the valve’s maximum outlet pressure.
Single-stage valves reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate slightly as you empty the tank. They’re best for applications where a constant outlet pressure isn’t critical.
Two-stage valves progressively reduce pressure over two steps for more consistent outlet pressure at all times. They’re often used in applications that require a constant outlet pressure regardless of the tank level.
Valves with a brass body have a longer service life than valves with a brass and steel body.
Valves with a stainless steel diaphragm can withstand harsh environments.
Valves with flared tube outlet fittings form a tight seal on metal tubing.

High-Purity Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating Valves for Inert Gas
- For Use With: See Table
- Temperature Range: -20° to 120° F
Reduce contaminants in research sample systems, emission monitoring systems, chromatography, and other high-purity applications that use argon, helium, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide. These valves have a 316 stainless steel and brass body with a smooth finish to reduce dust collection and internal components designed to protect the seal and diaphragm from contamination. They automatically reduce a high inlet pressure from compressed gas tanks to a lower, stable outlet pressure. All have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. Outlet fittings are Swagelok® for a leak-free seal around hard metal tubing in high-pressure lines. Also known as instrumentation fittings, Swagelok® fittings are compatible with Parker A-Lok, Gyrolok, Bilok, and Tylok fittings. Valves have a gauge to monitor outlet pressure and a gauge to monitor inlet pressure from the tank.
Choose a valve with a maximum outlet pressure that’s approximately twice your application’s normal operating pressure. Your operating pressure should never exceed 75% of the valve’s maximum outlet pressure.
Single-stage valves reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate slightly as you empty the tank. They’re best for applications where a constant outlet pressure isn’t critical.
Two-stage valves progressively reduce pressure over two steps for more consistent outlet pressure at all times. They’re often used in applications that require a constant outlet pressure regardless of the tank level.
Chrome-plated valves add a layer of corrosion resistance.

Easy-Read Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating
Valves with Flowmeter for Inert Gas
Flowmeters let you see the gas flow rate from a distance. These valves automatically reduce a high inlet pressure from compressed gas tanks to a lower, stable outlet pressure. All have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. They have a gauge for monitoring inlet pressure from the tank.
Single-stage valves reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate slightly as you empty the tank. They’re best for applications where a constant outlet pressure isn’t critical.
Two-stage valves progressively reduce pressure over two steps for more consistent outlet pressure at all times. They’re often used in applications that require a constant outlet pressure regardless of the tank level.
Valves with one flowmeter are for one piece of equipment on a tank. The flowmeter has a single scale.
Valve with two flowmeters lets you simultaneously run two pieces of equipment from one tank. Both flowmeters have a dual scale.
Adapters (sold separately) change 5/8"-18 outlets to 9/16"-18 male connections, and vice versa.

Tank-Mount High-Pressure-Regulating Valves for Air and Inert Gas
- For Use With: See Table
- Temperature Range: -20° to 120° F
Often used for pressure-vessel testing and other high-pressure applications, these valves can handle at least seven times the outlet pressure of standard tank-mount pressure-regulating valves. They automatically reduce a high inlet pressure from compressed gas tanks to a lower, stable outlet pressure. All have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. Outlet fittings are Swagelok® for a leak-free seal around hard metal tubing in high-pressure lines. Also known as instrumentation fittings, Swagelok® fittings are compatible with Parker A-Lok, Gyrolok, Bilok, and Tylok fittings. Valves have a gauge to monitor outlet pressure and a gauge to monitor inlet pressure from the tank. They are single stage and reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate slightly as you empty the tank.
Choose a valve with a maximum outlet pressure that’s approximately twice your application’s normal operating pressure. Your operating pressure should never exceed 75% of the valve’s maximum outlet pressure.
