Ultra-High-Vacuum Flanges and Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing
- For Use With: Air
- Temperature Range:
Flanges: -300° to 800° F
Gaskets: Not Rated - Tubing: Use with 304/304L and 316/316L stainless steel
- Specifications Met:
Flanges: ASTM A240, ASTM E45, ASTM E12
Gaskets: ASTM B152-179, ASTM F68
Create access points in ultra-high-vacuum lines or chambers by bolting two same-size flanges together with a copper gasket (sold separately) between them. The flanges’ sharp edges dig into the copper gasket and form an extremely tight seal, which means they handle higher vacuum pressures than other high-vacuum fittings with rubber gaskets. Also known as CF, Conflat, and UHV fittings, use them in vacuum coating, heat treating, and drying applications, as well as for leak testing and analyzing gases. They’re stainless steel so they resist rusting.
Fittings with a rotating flange turn so you can easily match up the bolt holes with another flange that may be misaligned.
Butt-weld flanges provide a flush connection for smooth flow through your line.
Socket-connect flanges are easier to weld than butt-weld flanges because they don’t need to align perfectly to tubing; insert the tubing into the socket end and weld together.
Caps are also known as blind flanges.
Bolt kits are required to make a complete connection.

Quick-Clamp High-Vacuum Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing
- For Use With:
Fittings with Gasket End: Air, Argon, Helium, Nitrogen
All Other Fittings: Air - Temperature Range: 0° to 300° F
- Tubing: Use with 304/304L or 316/316L stainless steel
- Specifications Met: ISO 2861
Instead of a gasket, these fittings have a special ring that is designed for high-vacuum applications, such as vacuum coating and heat treating, leak testing, and analyzing gases. Also known as KF, QF, and NW fittings, they are the most common type of connection in high-vacuum systems. Connect with a clamp and another quick-clamp fitting for fast, easy access to your line. To use fittings in pressure applications, use a pressure-rated ring (sold separately).
304 stainless steel fittings have very good corrosion resistance.
Note: To complete a connection, you’ll need two quick-clamp fittings, a ring, and a clamp (all sold separately).
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Fittings with flanged end connect to pumps, valves or gauges that have flanged connections. Also known as conflat, CF, or UHV fittings, they have a higher vacuum rating than quick-clamp fittings, so these adapters allow you to connect between different levels of vacuum within a system. A copper gasket (sold separately) creates a tight seal between the two flanges.

Transfer liquids and gasses into high-vacuum chambers with these assembled fittings, also known as feedthroughs. Because they form a tight seal on chamber walls, they are often used in coating, cooling, and leak-testing applications where negative pressure (vacuum) must be maintained. These fittings are ready to install and include high-vacuum fittings, metal tubing, and Yor-lok tube fittings. On each end, the Yor-lok fittings include a nut and two sleeves that grip your system’s stainless steel tubing. The entire assembly is stainless steel, so it resists rusting. These fittings are not for use in pressure applications.
Flanged fittings require a gasket and bolt kit (each sold separately) to complete the connection.

Ultra-High-Vacuum Hose with Flanges
Often found in semiconductor manufacturing and other demanding industrial applications, this hose handles nearly perfect vacuum. Sharp edges on the flanges dig into a copper gasket (sold separately) as you bolt the flanges together, creating a tighter seal than fittings with a rubber gasket. This allows the hose to maintain the ultra-high vacuum necessary for vacuum coating, heat treating, leak testing, and analyzing gases. The flanges are commonly referred to as ConFlat (CF) and UHV fittings. Thanks to its ribbed interior, this hose is flexible enough to connect misaligned components. That's why it's also called a bellows. The ribbing reduces vibration between components, such as vacuum pumps, valves, and chambers. Both the hose and flanges are made of stainless steel, so they resist rusting.
One of the flanges rotates, so you can easily match up the bolt holes with another flange. Make sure your mating flanges are the same size as these flanges.
Bolt kits are required to make a complete connection.

High-Vacuum Chambers
Analyze gases, test for leaks, and check the effects of high altitudes on electronic components with these chambers. They remove air and gases to create a space void of molecules.
Stainless steel chambers reach and maintain significantly higher vacuum levels than acrylic vacuum chambers, and they work at higher temperatures. They are more chemical resistant than acrylic chambers, making them appropriate for use with lab substances such as acetone and isopropyl alcohol.
Flanged connections create a seal that is tighter than clamp connections. Also known as CF connections, the flanges have sharp edges that press into a copper gasket as you tighten the bolts. The tighter seal means chambers with flanged connections can reach a higher vacuum level than chambers with clamp connections. Choose flanged connections for applications that require ultra-high vacuum, such as surface analysis experiments.
Maximum vacuum is measured in torr. The lower the torr value, the higher the level of vacuum.

High-Vacuum Flanged Sights
Add a window to your high-vacuum system. With a pane of glass sealed inside a high-vacuum CF flange, these sights bolt onto vacuum chambers, tee fittings, and manifolds. Use a copper gasket (sold separately) to create a seal. Not for use with pressure. To illuminate dark interiors, attach an optional light to the flange with set screws.

Lights for High-Vacuum Flanged Sights
Illuminate the interior of your high-vacuum chamber to clearly observe what’s inside. These lights mount to the outside of CF flanged sights with three set screws. They’re shaped like a ring, allowing you to see into the chamber through the middle. Unlike a flashlight or gooseneck lamp, they won’t block or create glare on your viewing port.
