Ham-let 3001023 Compression Tube Reducer 316 Ss

Product Description

The HAM-LET 3001023 is a compression tube reducer fitting designed to transition between a compression-style connection and a tube stub end in a single, compact body. Machined from 316 stainless steel, this reducer is suited for instrumentation, fluid handling, and process piping lines where corrosion resistance and a secure, leak-tight connection are required. The 1/4 inch tube outside diameter makes it appropriate for small-bore tubing runs common in analytical, chemical, and industrial service environments. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This reducer fits into applications where a compression fitting must mate to a tube stub connection, allowing technicians to adapt tubing runs without additional spool pieces or threaded adapters. Typical use cases include instrumentation manifolds, control panels, chemical feed lines, and process sampling systems. The 316 stainless steel construction provides resistance to chloride environments and a broad range of process fluids, making it viable for offshore, marine, pharmaceutical, and industrial plant installations.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh and chloride-rich environments
• Compression x tube stub end connections allow direct adaptation between fitting styles without additional hardware
• 1/4 inch tube outside diameter suits small-bore instrumentation and process tubing runs
• Compact reducer body minimizes dead volume and keeps installation footprint small
• Single-piece construction with no internal seals to degrade or replace

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for small-bore compression tube systems using 1/4 inch outside diameter tubing with 316 stainless steel compression fittings and tube stub connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, plumber, or instrumentation technician familiar with compression fitting assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any fitting. Follow the tubing manufacturer and fitting manufacturer assembly instructions for proper ferrule seating and nut torque sequence. Installations on process or chemical lines should comply with applicable local piping codes and system design specifications.
