BAX-LOK TWIN FERRULE FITTINGS
The BAX-LOK twin ferrule tube fitting is precision engineered to exacting standards. Careful selection of high quality tubing together with the appropriate BAX-LOK fitting will ensure the installation of safe, leak free systems. The following tables are intended as a guide to tube ordering. The tube sizes listed are regularly tested to bursting pressure in both maximum and minimum wall thickness using correctly assembled BAX-LOK tube fittings, with no sign of leakage or failure at the connections. For use with tubes of wall thickness other than those listed, recommendations regarding working pressures for BAX-LOK fittings can be obtained from our Technical Dept.
Tube should be fully annealed high quality stainless steel tubing to ASTM A-269 or equivalent. The preferred hardness is Rb 80 or less, if harder tube is used Rb 90 is the maximum allowed under ASTM A-269.
