Sleeves for Compression Fittings for Copper Tubing

- For Use With: Air, Cutting Oil, Fuel Oil, Hydraulic Fluid, Mineral Oil, Water
- Temperature Range: -65° to 200° F, except metric fittings are -40° to 250° F
- Tubing: Use with copper
- Specifications Met: UL listed, except for metric fittings
Use these sleeves with compression nuts and fittings to create a strong seal on copper tubing. They are brass for good corrosion resistance. They are also known as ferrules.

Compression Fittings for Copper Tubing

- For Use With: Air, Cutting Oil, Diesel Fuel, Ethyl Alcohol, Fuel Oil, Gasoline, Hydraulic Fluid, Isopropyl Alcohol, Lubricants, Mineral Oil, Natural Gas, Steam, Water
- Temperature Range: -75° to 550° F
- Tubing: Use with copper
- Specifications Met: DIN 3861
Use these sleeves with compression nuts and fittings to create a strong seal on copper tubing. Made of brass, they gently bite into tubing as you tighten the nut, and have good corrosion resistance. All meet DIN 3861, which is an international standard for tube fitting dimensions.

Sleeves for Brass Compression Tube Fittings for Air and Water

- For Use With: Air, Lubricated Air, Water
- Temperature Range: See table
- Tubing: Use with firm or hard (Durometer 1A-95A or-Rockwell 15T 1-15T 60) nylon plastic, polyethylene plastic, polypropylene plastic or polyurethane rubber
- Specifications Met: SAE J512, except metric sizes
Use these sleeves with brass compression nuts and fittings to create a seal on plastic and rubber tubing.
Brass sleeves work best with nylon tubing. When using these sleeves with soft tubing such as polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyurethane tubing, you should use a tube support (not included).
