DESIGN
Addison Compression Tube Fittings have been carefully designed for use with stainless steel tubes and is suitable for installations where secure leak-proof joints are essential. Suitable for high press ures, vacuum and where vibration is inherent, these couplings are precisely manufactured to close tolerance.To prevent galling of the threads, nuts are silver plated.
PRESSURE RATINGS
Addison double ferrule design is rated for working at high pressures than the tubing maximum allowable working pressure.
However the tubing should not be utilised above its maximum allowable working pressure.
For maximum allowable working pressure on tubes, refer ANSIB 31.3, Table A-1 and Par 304.1.2
Section VIII, Table UNF-23.3, Par.UG-27 and Appendix 1, Par. 1-2.
VACUUM RATING
Addison Tube Fittings offers excellent vacuum capability. With good quality tubing, Addison fittings will be leak-tight at vacuum levels of negative pressure up to 700mbar while tested.
