Applications
Compression Fittings can be used with Copper, Brass, Aluminum or Plastic tubing. These fittings are primarily used in water, gasoline, oil and vacuum lines.
Advantages
Compression Fittings do not require flaring, soldering or other preparation to assemble. We use CA 360, CA 345 or CA 377 Brass for manufacturing.
Temperature Range
-65°F to 250°F at maximum operating pressures.
Vibration
Short nuts are to be used when vibration is minimal. The long nuts are available for higher vibration applications.
