About Stainless Steel Tube Fittings
Provided Stainless Steel Tube Fittings have been developed by following advanced casting technology. Notable for their hexagonal head shape, these have welded connecting parts (double ferrule). Threading design of these fitting accessories conforms to global standard. These Stainless Steel Tube Fittings are used as indispensable parts of gas, oil and water transferring pipelines. Standard hardness, leakage proof design, compact shape, accurate dimension, long lasting quality and reasonable price are the key aspects of these products. Being rust protected, these fittings remain functional for years.
Leak-Proof PerformanceEngineered with a double ferrule system, these stainless steel tube fittings ensure leak-proof connections, making them indispensable for high-pressure applications. Their robust design maintains integrity under demanding conditions, supporting working pressures up to 6000 psi and a broad temperature spectrum.
Versatile CompatibilityAvailable with multiple connection typesthreaded, tube-to-tube, male, female, welded, flare, and push-to-connectthese fittings support standards like NPT, BSP, BSPT, and Metric. Varied shapes such as elbows, tees, unions, and reducers ensure flexible adaptability for complex system layouts.
Durable and Corrosion ResistantManufactured using premium stainless steel grades (SS304, SS316, SS316L), these fittings exhibit outstanding corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. Their polished or passivated surfaces provide enhanced longevity, making them ideal for aggressive industrial environments.
FAQs of Stainless Steel Tube Fittings:
Q: How do the double ferrule tube fittings prevent leakage in high-pressure applications?
A: The double ferrule system employs two rings that securely grip the tube and form a tight seal during compression, preventing fluid or gas leaks even under pressures up to 6000 psi. This design suits critical installations in instrumentation and industrial lines.
Q: What types of thread standards are available for these stainless steel tube fittings?
A: The fittings are compatible with global thread standards, including NPT, BSP, BSPT, and Metric. This ensures easy integration into a wide range of piping systems, both new and existing, across diverse industries.
Q: Where can these stainless steel tube fittings be used effectively?
A: These fittings are extensively used in oil & gas, chemical, petrochemical, water treatment, and power plants. Their corrosion resistance, wide temperature range, and high tensile strength make them suitable for harsh and demanding operational environments.
Q: What is the typical process for installing these tube fittings?
A: Installation involves inserting the tube into the fitting, tightening the nut to compress the ferrules, and achieving a secure, leak-proof seal. For threaded ends, standard threading techniques are used, following relevant standards for optimal sealing.
Q: When should I choose compression type fittings over welded connections?
A: Compression fittings are ideal when ease of installation, quick assembly, or future disassembly is important. Welded fittings, on the other hand, are chosen for permanent, high-strength applications, especially where vibration or movement is minimal.
Q: What are the benefits of using these fittings in corrosive environments?
A: Manufactured from SS304, SS316, and SS316L, these fittings offer exceptional resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. The mirror, satin, or electro-polished surface finishes further enhance their durability and lifespan in aggressive settings.
