Ham-let 3000445 Compression Tube Union 316 Ss

Product Description

The HAM-LET 3000445 is a compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube lines in a single inline fitting. Constructed from 316 stainless steel and manufactured to ASTM A269 standards, this union delivers corrosion resistance suited for demanding fluid and gas service environments. The compression x compression end configuration allows for a tool-assisted, leak-resistant connection without welding or brazing. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians install this type of fitting in process, instrumentation, and HVAC-adjacent piping systems where stainless construction and reliable tube joints are required.

This fitting is suited for residential and light commercial instrumentation lines, industrial process tubing, and compressed gas or fluid distribution systems operating within a temperature range of -4 degrees F to 212 degrees F (-20 degrees C to 100 degrees C). The union design allows removal and reinstallation of tubing sections without cutting or flaring, making it practical for maintenance-heavy installations where tube sections are periodically disconnected and reconnected.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, and outdoor environments
• Meets ASTM A269 standard for seamless and welded austenitic stainless steel tubing fittings
• Compression x compression end connections on both sides for tool-assisted, no-weld assembly
• Union body allows in-line tube disconnection and reconnection without cutting
• Rated for service from -4 degrees F to 212 degrees F (-20 degrees C to 100 degrees C)
• Lightweight at 0.18 pounds, suitable for compact instrumentation and tubing panels

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube union for instrumentation, process, and fluid-handling tubing systems requiring 316 stainless steel fittings with compression-style end connections conforming to ASTM A269.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters, plumbers, or instrumentation technicians. Isolate and depressurize the tubing system completely before disassembling any compression fittings. Ensure tube ends are cut square, deburred, and free of contamination before seating into the compression fitting body. Follow applicable IPC and facility piping codes for compression fitting assembly and pressure testing after installation.
