Standard valves can take up a good amount of space, especially when you need two or three in an assembly. To meet that challenges, we offer the process interface valves which gives you the footprint of one valve while doing the job of two or three valves.  The compact size and reduced weight minimizes space envelope and support structure required. This one-valve configuration also provides the advantage offers fewer potential leak points. While not one of the most common valves you'll encounter, it's a great option to know about when you need it, and the single-source unit reduces maintenance time and cost.

Swagelok Tube Fittings can be Integrated Directly into Double Block and Bleed and Monoflanges

Swagelok tube fittings have a grip-type design that uses a unique “hinging and colleting” action to achieve optimal performance in three key areas:

• Tube grip—hinging and colleting action provides more direct tube contact/gripping support
• Gas seal—burnishing/polishing action of the front ferrule creates concentrated zones of contact on the tube and on the body bevel for a stronger seal.
• Vibration resistance—the colleting region better isolates stress risers at the tube grip to resist bending, deflection, and vibration.
