Gripper Fittings

Gripper fittings connect laboratory tubing and offer zero dead volume at pressures up to 1000 psi. They can be hand tightened without the need for a special tool and will not compress or twist tubing if over-tightened. They have a chemically inert PTFE washer that is pressure-fitted into a 316 stainless steel housing, ensuring a leak-free connection with minimum disturbance to the fluid path. They can be connected and reconnected without deterioration to the sealing face. The polypropylene fitting is available in ten standard colors and has a slotted head for removal.
