Stainless Steel Ferrules

Product Description

Double Ferrule Fittings MI Double Ferrule Compression Tube Fittings provide leak proof torque free seals at all tubing connections. They eliminate hazardous leaks in instrumentation, process, pneumatic, hydraulic, gas and other applicable tubing system which could otherwise turn out to be costly to the installation. The basic MI Double Ferrule Tube Fittings is a four piece Fitting consisting of the Nut, the Back Ferrule, the Front Ferrule and the Body. When installed, it becomes a five piece connection with the addition of the tubing providing a solid leak free joint. The two ferrules grasp tightly around the tube with no damage to the tube wall. Exhaustive tests have proven that the tubing will yield before a Fluid Control Double Ferrule joint starts leaking. The secret behind the success of the MI Double Ferrule Fittings lies in the two ferrule design which is a combination of geometry and metallurgy. All the action in the fitting is by an axial movement along the tube instead of a rotary motion to create the joint. This axial movement prevents any torque to be transmitted from a fitting to the tubing. Since there is no initial strain in the tubing, the making of the joint does not weaken the tubing.
