These nuts are for use with all standard Valco internal fittings and most valves. They also may be used with fittings from other manufacturers. The medium and long types are ideal for metal Valco and Cheminert® valves with more than 8 ports, or where the fitting head may be otherwise inaccessible.

They are sized for use with 1/32", 1/16", and 1/8" OD tubing, and are available in different lengths.

Tech Tip

Using nuts with different lengths will create more space for easier wrench access.

These stainless-steel nuts are designed for use with metal Rheodyne valves, sized for 1/16” OD tubing. Three different lengths are available to accommodate any possible connecting situation. The standard nut is suitable for easily accessible connections (pumps, valves, columns, detectors, etc.). For very tight and difficult-to-reach areas, we recommend the long and extra-long nut.

Valco stainless-steel ferrules for 1/32”, 1/16”, and ⅛” OD tubing are an excellent fit for all standard Valco internal fittings and most valves, or with those of most other manufacturers. These metal ferrules cut a ring near the end of the tube, preventing tube release at high pressures without significantly deforming and restricting the tube interior. (However, if the hardness of the tubing is equal to or greater than that of the ferrule, the result is more likely deformation of the tube rather than a cut ring.)
