Pressure Ratings
Pressure ratings for a fluid system are determined by the end connection or system component with the
lowest pressure rating. Ratings for the end connections listed in this catalog are discussed below.

Pressure Ratings
Low-Temperature Ratings
Fitting pressure ratings are for metal temperatures from –50
to 100ºF (–46 to 37ºC), based on –50ºF (–46ºC) impact tests
performed on SAF 2507 bar and forgings. The tubing listed
in the table on page 2 has a minimum use temperature of
–20ºF (–28ºC) in accordance with ASME B31.3.
However, the NORSOK M-001 Materials Selection standard
allows this tubing to be used at a minimum temperature of
–50ºF (–46ºC). According to the NORSOK M-630 Material
Data Sheets for Piping, SAF 2507 tubing does not have to
undergo low-temperature impact testing so long as wall
thicknesses are below 0.236 in. (6 mm).

Safety Precautions
■ Do not bleed system by loosening fitting nut or fitting plug.
■ Do not assemble or tighten fittings when system is
pressurized.
■ Make sure that the tube rests firmly on the shoulder of the
tube fitting body before tightening the nut.
■ Use the correct Swagelok gap inspection gauge to ensure
sufficient pull-up upon initial installation.
■ Always use proper thread sealants on tapered pipe
threads.
■ Do not mix materials or fitting components from various
manufacturers—ferrules, nuts, and fitting bodies.
■ Never turn fitting body. Instead, hold fitting body and turn nut.
■ Avoid unnecessary disassembly of unused fittings.
