Ham-let 3001653 Compression Tube Union 316 Ss

Product Description

The HAM-LET 3001653 is a compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube connections in a single inline fitting. Constructed from 316 stainless steel per ASTM A182, ASTM A213, ASTM A269, ASTM A276, and ASTM A479, this union delivers corrosion resistance suited to aggressive fluid and gas service environments. With an overall length of 2.38 inches and a rated temperature range from -20 degrees F to 37 degrees F, the 3001653 is well suited to instrumentation, process, and utility piping applications where a reliable metal-to-metal compression seal is required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the primary installers of this fitting.

This compression tube union is intended for use in residential and commercial piping systems, instrumentation tubing runs, and process utility lines where a straight union connection between two compression-ended tubes is needed. The DIN EN10122-5 and DIN EN10272 standards compliance extends its suitability to applications requiring internationally recognized material and dimensional conformance. This fitting corresponds to Swagelok part number SS-1610-6-8, which may assist in cross-referencing during system design or maintenance.

Compatibility

Cross-references to Swagelok part number SS-1610-6-8. Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct substitute for compression tube union fittings meeting the listed ASTM and DIN material standards.

Installation Notes

Installation of compression tube fittings should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified instrumentation technician familiar with compression fitting assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the tubing system completely before disassembly or installation. Follow the fitting manufacturer's recommended number of turns past finger-tight when making up compression connections, and do not overtighten, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal. Applicable work should conform to IPC and relevant process piping codes for the jurisdiction.
