1/8 to 1 in. and 6 to 18 mm sizesHigh-purity stainless steels

Available surface finishes on glands andbodies are a roughness average of 10 µin.(0.25 µm) and 5 µin. (0.13 µm) Ra.

Material heat code is stamped onglands and all shapes to ensure raw material traceability.

Markings identify manufacturer, material, and whenapplicable, the appropriate process designatoraccording to Swagelok® Ultrahigh-Purity ProcessSpecification (SC-01).

Test port at two locationsfor easy leak testing

Female threads are silver-plated to ensureeasy and consistent assembly

Precision manufactured gasketfor maximum performance

No “virtual leak” zones

Ultrahigh-PurityA variety of Micro-Fit weld fittings areavailable with controlled surface finishes,electropolished and specially cleaned tomeet Ultrahigh-Purity system require-ments. For more information, refer toSwagelok Ultrahigh-Purity ProcessSpecification (SC-01).

Rounded body block preventsinjury or damage to other components during systemfabrication or maintenance.

Laser etch markingidentifies manufacturer, material, and when applicable, the appropri-ate process designatoraccording to SwagelokUltrahigh-Purity ProcessSpecification (SC-01).

Radius junctionallows for a smooth flowtransition and is designedto eliminate pockets andentrapment zones.

Material heat code is rollstamped during firstmanufacturing operationto ensure raw materialtraceability.

Square, sharp, burr-free tube weld ends enhance alignment,maintain tube wall uniformity,and promote weld repeatability.

FeaturesCompact design

accommodates tubing systemsrequiring miniaturization.allows close component spacing.provides flow and service ratings

equal to larger weld fittingsdesigned for the same size tubing.
