304 Stainless Steel Compression Union 12mm OD x 12mm OD Lophtnix Pack

Description

Product Overview

The Lophtnix 304 stainless steel compression union is engineered for demanding industrial applications where reliability and durability are paramount. Constructed from premium 304 stainless steel, the fitting offers superior strength and exceptional resistance to corrosion, even in harsh chemical environments. Its double‑ferrule design creates a secure seal that dramatically reduces the risk of leaks, ensuring consistent performance over the product’s lifespan. The union connects two 12mm OD tubes with a simple push‑in installation, eliminating the need for complex tools or additional couplings. With a compact package measuring 1.8 x 0.9 x 0.77 inches and a lightweight of just 0.28 pounds per piece, it is easy to handle and store. The NPT thread type provides a standardized connection compatible with a wide range of hydraulic and pneumatic components, making it a versatile choice for engineers and technicians alike.

Usage

This compression union excels in a variety of settings, from high‑pressure hydraulic circuits to low‑pressure water distribution networks. It is suitable for oil, water, gas, and many other non‑corrosive or mildly corrosive media, handling operating temperatures up to 450 °C and pressures ranging from 25 MPa to 48 MPa. Installers appreciate the quick‑connect feature, which allows for rapid assembly and disassembly without sacrificing seal integrity—ideal for maintenance‑intensive environments such as manufacturing plants, automotive service bays, and agricultural irrigation systems. The union’s robust construction also makes it a reliable component in marine applications where exposure to saltwater can accelerate corrosion on inferior materials. Whether you are building a new fluid system or retrofitting an existing line, this fitting provides the confidence of a leak‑free connection that meets rigorous industry standards.
