Value Collection SS-TN-FT2 Compression Tube Nut 1/8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SS-TN-FT2 is a stainless steel compression tube nut designed for use in compression tube fittings where a secure, leak-resistant connection is required. Machined from 316 stainless steel, this nut accommodates a 1/8 inch tube outside diameter and features female NPT (FNPT) end connections with an NPT and UNF thread standard. At 0.4402 inches overall length, it is a compact component suited for instrumentation, fluid control, and process piping lines. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and instrumentation technicians working on tubing runs that require reliable compression-style joints.

This compression tube nut is intended for use in residential and commercial applications involving 1/8 inch OD tubing, including instrument tubing, sample lines, and small-bore process connections. It is commonly installed wherever a compression fitting assembly requires a separate nut component, particularly in systems where corrosion resistance is critical. The 316 stainless steel construction makes it well suited for wet, chemical-exposed, or outdoor environments. The Swagelok equivalent reference is part number SS-202-1.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• Accepts 1/8 inch tube outside diameter with FNPT end connections
• NPT and UNF thread standard for broad fitment in standard compression assemblies
• Compact 0.4402 inch overall length for use in tight installations
• Meets ASTM A182, ASTM A213, ASTM A269, ASTM A276, ASTM A479, DIN EN10122-5, and DIN EN10272 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement-style compression tube nut for use with standard 1/8 inch OD tubing compression fitting assemblies. Cross-references to Swagelok part number SS-202-1.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or instrumentation technicians. Shut off all system pressure and depressurize the tubing line before disassembling or replacing any compression fitting components. Follow applicable IPC provisions and manufacturer fitting assembly instructions for proper tube insertion depth and nut engagement. Do not overtighten; compression fittings rely on controlled ferrule deformation, not high torque, to achieve a seal.
