Compression Fittings for Steel Tubing
(SAE Straight) Male
Threads with Gasket
- For Use With: Inch: Air, Hydraulic Fluid, Water
Metric: Hydraulic Fluid - Tubing: Inch: Use with welded steel
Metric: Use with seamless steel - Specifications Met: Inch: SAE J514
Metric: ISO 8434, DIN 2353
A single sleeve (ferrule) bites into tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a strong seal. The nut and sleeve are included. Fittings are also known as flareless and bite fittings.
Zinc-plated steel fittings have fair corrosion resistance.
ISO 8434 (formerly DIN 2353) fittings meet international standards for tube fitting pressures.

High-Pressure Compression Fittings for Steel Tubing
- For Use With: Hydraulic Fluid
- Specifications Met: DIN 2353, ISO 8434
Thicker walls make these fittings—sometimes called flareless or bite fittings—withstand about twice as much pressure as standard compression fittings, so they’re good for hydraulic power applications. Their single sleeve, or ferrule, bites into tubing as you tighten the nut, creating a seal that is leak tight even at high heat. The nut and sleeve are included. All meet ISO 8434 (formerly DIN 2353), which is an international standard for tube fitting pressures.
Zinc-plated steel fittings have fair corrosion resistance.
BSPP male threads have a gasket to prevent leaks.

The sleeve (ferrule) in these fittings is made of rubber instead of metal, so it cushions the tubing and absorbs vibration while creating a tight seal. Fittings are also known as flareless fittings. They are zinc-plated steel for fair corrosion resistance.
BSPP male threads have a gasket and washer to prevent leaks.

A tube adapter sits flush against the flat face of the fitting so you can slide the tubing and fitting sideways to disconnect in cramped spaces. Fittings are also known as zero-clearance fittings. To install, weld a tube adapter to the tubing with a brazing ring (sold separately), then mate the tube adapter to the fitting and screw on the nut. As the nut is tightened, the tube adapter compresses the O-ring, creating a strong seal. Fittings are zinc-plated steel for fair corrosion resistance. Nuts and tube adapters are sold separately.
