Parker 60VLV-12 Compression Tube Sleeve Viton

Product Description

The PARKER 60VLV-12 is a compression tube sleeve designed for use in fluid and gas line assemblies that require a secure, vibration-resistant connection. Made from Viton elastomer, this sleeve seats within a Vibra-Lok style compression fitting to create a reliable seal that resists movement and loosening under dynamic load conditions. The Viton construction provides strong resistance to fuels, hydraulic fluids, and a broad range of industrial chemicals. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and fluid system technicians install this sleeve as part of a compression fitting assembly in both stationary and vibrating line applications.

This sleeve is suited for compression tube connections in applications where standard ferrule sleeves are insufficient due to vibration or thermal cycling. The Vibra-Lok design mechanically locks the sleeve to the tubing, reducing the risk of joint loosening over time. Typical installation environments include industrial fluid systems, fuel lines, and hydraulic circuits where Parker compression fittings are already in use. It is sold as a single-piece component and is intended for use with the corresponding Parker Vibra-Lok body and nut.

Key Features

• Viton material construction for chemical and fuel resistance
• Vibra-Lok compression style resists loosening under vibration and dynamic loads
• Compression end connection for tool-accessible, no-solder tube joining
• Single-piece sleeve sold individually for precise replacement or repair
• Lightweight at 0.02 pounds for easy handling in tight installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement sleeve for Parker Vibra-Lok compression fitting assemblies. Consult Parker fitting documentation to confirm tubing size and body compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed pipefitters or fluid system technicians working on compression tube assemblies. Depressurize and isolate the line completely before disassembling any compression fitting. Do not reuse a previously compressed sleeve on a new joint. Follow applicable piping codes and the Parker fitting manufacturer instructions for proper sleeve seating and nut torque procedure.
