Parker 5BLEN5-316 Compression Tube End Cap Ss

Product Description

The PARKER 5BLEN5-316 is a compression-style tube end cap manufactured from 316 stainless steel. It seals the open end of a compression tube line, blocking flow and pressure in instrumentation, hydraulic, or process piping systems. Rated to 8100 psi maximum working pressure, it handles demanding industrial and high-pressure service environments. The temperature range extends from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F, making it suitable for cryogenic through high-temperature applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the typical installers. Thread standard is NPT.

This end cap is used in industrial process lines, instrumentation tubing systems, hydraulic circuits, and high-purity fluid handling applications where a reliable, leak-free tube termination is required. Its stainless steel construction resists corrosion in aggressive media, making it a common choice for chemical processing, oil and gas, and power generation installations. It ships in a quantity of one per package.

Key Features

• 8100 psi maximum working pressure for high-pressure service
• 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Wide temperature range: -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F, covering cryogenic and high-heat applications
• Compression-style fitting for secure, tool-assisted tube termination
• NPT thread standard

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube end cap for use in high-pressure instrumentation and process piping systems requiring NPT-compatible stainless steel fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter, plumber, or instrumentation technician in accordance with applicable codes such as ASME B31.3 for process piping. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Use proper tube preparation and ensure the tube end is cut square and deburred before seating the fitting. Do not overtighten compression fittings beyond manufacturer torque guidance.
