Legris 0105 05 10 Brass Compression Tube Fitting, Connector, 5 mm Tube OD x 1/8″ BSPT Male

Description

Product Overview

The Legris 0105 05 10 brass compression tube fitting is engineered to deliver a secure, leak‑resistant connection in demanding fluid handling applications. Crafted from high‑grade brass, the fitting combines excellent corrosion resistance with the ability to withstand elevated temperatures, making it suitable for both hot‑water and industrial‑grade hydraulic systems. The 5 mm outer‑diameter tube inlet is paired with a 1/8 in BSPT male thread on the opposite end, providing a versatile interface that can be integrated with a wide range of standard plumbing components. The design incorporates a precision‑machined ferrule that compresses uniformly around the tubing when the nut is tightened, creating a seal that eliminates the need for additional sealing compounds.

Beyond its core material advantages, the fitting benefits from a streamlined profile that reduces bulk in confined spaces, while the brass finish offers a low magnetic permeability, an important factor in environments where electromagnetic interference must be minimized. The product dimensions of 2.3 x 1.7 x 0.5 inches and a lightweight of 0.35 ounces make it easy to handle during installation, and the model number 0105 05 10 ensures precise identification for inventory management. Since its introduction in 2012, this fitting has earned a reputation for reliability, reflected in its ranking among the top compression fitting tube inserts on major e‑commerce platforms.

Legris, a trusted name in fluid control components, has applied decades of engineering expertise to this fitting, guaranteeing that each unit meets stringent quality standards. The manufacturing process includes rigorous testing for pressure tolerance, dimensional accuracy, and long‑term durability, ensuring that the fitting performs consistently throughout its service life. Whether deployed in a small‑scale workshop or a large‑scale manufacturing plant, the 0105 05 10 fitting delivers the performance expected from a premium‑grade component.

Usage

This compression fitting is ideally suited for a variety of applications where a secure, non‑leaking joint is essential. In hydraulic circuits, it connects copper or nylon tubing to larger pipework, enabling precise control of fluid flow in actuators, valves, and pumps. Pneumatic systems benefit from the fitting’s ability to handle compressed air without degradation, making it a reliable choice for air‑powered tools, automation equipment, and process control lines. The fitting also excels in general plumbing tasks, such as water distribution, coolant loops, and laboratory gas lines, where its brass construction provides resistance to both corrosive chemicals and mineral deposits.

Installation is straightforward: the tube is inserted into the fitting’s inlet, the ferrule is positioned, and the nut is tightened by hand or with a wrench to the recommended torque. This creates a uniform compression that seals the joint without the need for additional sealants. The fitting’s compatibility with copper, nylon, and plastic tubing expands its utility across diverse material selections, allowing engineers to choose the most appropriate tubing based on pressure ratings, flexibility, and chemical compatibility.

In field service scenarios, the fitting’s compact size and lightweight nature simplify transport and on‑site assembly. Its robust design reduces the likelihood of failure under vibration or thermal cycling, which is critical for mobile equipment, agricultural machinery, and outdoor installations. By providing a dependable connection point, the Legris 0105 05 10 fitting helps maintain system integrity, minimize downtime, and lower maintenance costs.

FAQ

What types of tubing can I use with this fitting?

The fitting is compatible with copper, nylon, and plastic tubing that has an outer diameter of 5 mm. Ensure the tubing material is rated for the pressure and temperature of your specific application.

How do I achieve the correct torque when installing the fitting?

For optimal performance, tighten the nut until it is snug and then apply an additional 1–2 Nm (Newton‑meters) of torque using a calibrated wrench. This ensures the ferrule compresses evenly without over‑tightening, which could damage the tubing.

Is this fitting suitable for high‑pressure hydraulic systems?

Yes. The brass body and compression design are engineered to handle typical hydraulic pressures up to 250 bar (approximately 3600 psi), provided the tubing and installation follow the manufacturer’s specifications.

Can I use this fitting in corrosive chemical environments?

The brass material offers good resistance to many chemicals, but for highly aggressive acids or alkalis, verify compatibility with the specific chemical agents. In most standard industrial and plumbing applications, the fitting performs reliably.

What warranty does Legris provide for this product?

Legris offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. If you encounter any issues related to material or workmanship within this period, contact our support team for replacement or repair options.
