This Swagelok® FM type, flexible, convoluted hose is 48" long and has 1/4" OD tube adapter ends for connection to Swagelok tubing compression-type fittings. The 1/4" tubing adapter uses an outward facing nut and ferrule set which then connects to a threaded male swagelok fitting. A 1/4" nut and ferrule set is required and must be purchased separately. .

These 1/4" T series hoses feature a working pressure from vacuum to 3000 psig at temperatures from -53°C to 93°C ( -65°F to 200°F) and feature a smooth-bore PTFE core and 316L stainless steel braided exterior. The single braid layer of 316L stainless steel promotes hose pressure containment and protects the core from abrasion.

These PTFE-cored hoses are commonly used where chemical compatibility and permeation resistance is required and the PTFE material complies with FDA regulation 21CFR.

Industry standard Swagelok compression-type fittings and components are precision manufactured and offer a gas-tight, metal-on-metal seal. They are available in standard fractional tubing sizes for making up stainless steel tubing. Polished surface finishes and high purity materials virtually eliminate these fittings as a source of system contamination.

They can be used for any fluid flow application and provide leak-tight service from vacuum to positive pressure. These fittings offer consistent gaugeability upon initial installation and are easy to disconnect and retighten reliably.

The two-ferrule design of Swagelok compression fittings are easy to install and no torque is transmitted to the tubing during installation. The two ferrules separate sealing and tube gripping functions; each ferrule is optimized for its function. Available Swagelok gap inspection gauges assure sufficient pull-up upon initial installation.

Swagelok tube fitting ends are rated to the working pressure of tubing as listed in the Swagelok Tubing Data PDF, available here for download.
