Parker 2SC2-316 Compression Tube Union Stainless Steel

Product Description

The PARKER 2SC2-316 is a stainless steel compression tube union designed to join two compression-end tube lines in a single inline connection. It accepts compression fittings on both ends, creating a leak-resistant, vibration-tolerant joint without welding or flaring. Rated to 10900 psi maximum working pressure and capable of handling temperatures from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding fluid and gas system applications. It is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians working on high-pressure tubing runs in industrial, process, and instrumentation environments.

This union fitting is used in high-pressure fluid and gas systems where a removable inline tube connection is required. Typical applications include instrument tubing manifolds, hydraulic lines, pneumatic control circuits, and process piping where stainless steel construction is required for corrosion resistance or high-temperature service. The compression-by-compression end configuration allows the union to connect two tube ends without threading or soldering, making it well suited for both new installations and field repairs on existing tubing runs.

Key Features

• Compression x compression end connections for tool-assisted, no-weld assembly
• 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in aggressive media
• Maximum working pressure of 10900 psi suits high-pressure instrumentation and hydraulic service
• Wide temperature range from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F covers cryogenic through high-heat applications
• Union configuration allows the connection to be broken and remade for maintenance access

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use compression tube union for high-pressure tubing systems requiring stainless steel, compression-end fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters or instrumentation technicians in accordance with applicable ASME and process piping codes. Depressurize and isolate the tubing system completely before disassembling or installing any compression fitting. Use the correct tube OD size to match the fitting bore and follow the ferrule make-up procedure specified for the tube material and wall thickness. Do not over-tighten compression nuts, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
