Interfacing Accuracy and Strength: A Profound Jump into Instrumentation Cylinder Fittings, Water driven Fittings Producers, and Materials SS 304, SS 316, Inconel 625, and Inconel 600
The structure of the fittings is basic, they have a nut, a rear ferrule, a front ferrule and a body; when installed it makes a five piece connection with the addition of a tube/tubing to provide leak-free connection. The two ferrules remain securely around the tube without damaging the surface. Some studies have shown that the pipe will give way before the double ferrule joint begins to leak. The reason behind the effectiveness of this type of fitting lies in the two-ferrule configuration that incorporates geometry and metallurgy. All activity in the fitting is an axial movement along the tube rather than a rotary movement to make the joint. This axial movement prevents the transfer of any torque from fitting the tube. Functionality of the Splints The two-ferrule mechanical gripping design separates the tube sealing and clamping functions; Each splint is optimized for its function. The front ferrule creates a seal against the body of the fitting and on the outside diameter of the...
