VCO O-Ring Face Seal Fittings

Features
Swagelok VCO O-ring face seal fittings
are designed for rapid assembly in
pipe, tube, and welded systems.

O-ring
contained
completely
for maximum
efficiency

Unique design allows easy

installation where space is limited.

Test ports at two

locations for easy
leak testing

Female nut threads

silver plated for
easy assembly
VCO Body

No axial clearance is required.

Sealing is accomplished with

a captive O-ring in the body

component.
Assemblies can be used from high

pressure to critical vacuum, within a

wide range of temperatures.

VCO Gland

VCO Nut
Smooth finish on
gland face ensures
positive seal

Testing
The VCO face seal fitting design has been helium leak tested
to a maximum leak rate of 4 10 9 std cm3/s.

Ordering Information and Dimensions

Dimensions are for reference only and are subject to change.
