When we use the tube fitting, the sealing is very important, we need sealing installation, then how can the sealing installation of the tube fitting, here we will talk about that.

In order to ensure the sealing of the tube fitting installation, first cut off the appropriate length of seamless steel pipe with a saw blade to remove the port burr. Set the nut and fastener on the seamless steel tube.

Pay attention to the direction of the nut and bite in, do not reverse the installation. For tube fittings, apply lubricant to the screws and ferrules of the preassembled fitting body, insert the steel pipe into the fitting body, and hand tighten the nut.

Tighten the nut until the ferrule catches the fermenter steel pipe, this turning point can be felt by the increase in tightening torque.

Once the pressure point is reached, tighten the nut 1/2 turn. Remove the pre-assembled fitting body and check the insertion of the ferrule cutting edge. The visible protruding band shall fill the space at the front of the ferrule. It can be turned slightly but not moved axially. When installing next, the threads of the actual fitting body shall be lubricated and the compression nuts shall be screwed together until an increase in tightening force is felt, then the collar fitting shall be tightened 1/2 turn to complete the installation.

The above is the needle valve manufacturers to introduce the relevant content, I hope to help you.
