SWAGELOK PERFORMANCE

Swagelok fittings have built-in spring interaction between the ferrules. This compensates for temperature changes, vibration loosening and allows the fittings to be reconnected many times. As the fitting is tightened, a burnishing occurs between the body of the fitting and the ferrules and between the ferrules and the tube. This action provides a leak proof connection.

RUNNING THE LINES

See the schematic diagram. Prior to making up connections see "Swagelok Fittings" texts.
