Features of Double Ferrule Tube Fittings

Beyond Fluid’s tube fittings are engineered to meet demanding industrial standards. These twin (double) ferrule fittings, also known as instrumentation fittings, deliver superior leak-tight performance and are fully comparable to top U.S. brands like Swagelok and Parker A-Lok.

Each fitting consists of four parts: body, nut, front ferrule, and back ferrule. The dual-ferrule design ensures excellent tube grip and vibration resistance. During assembly, the back ferrule drives the front ferrule forward to seal against the fitting body while securely swaging the tube.

Double Ferrule Tube Fittings

Application of Double Ferrule Tube Fittings

Twin or double ferrule fittings are easy to install, requiring no welding or threaded connections, which reduces labor costs. They are reusable, cost-effective, and offer long-term reliability.

These fittings are widely used in industries such as:
  • Shipbuilding • Chemical processing
  • Oil and gas • Power generation
  • Pharmaceuticals • Semiconductors
  • Vacuum applications • Hydrogen Applications

Elastomer's Temperature Rating​​ ​

When selecting seal materials, the seal’s temperature rating may become the limiting factor for the fitting’s overall temperature rating. Please refer to the temperature rating table below for guidance:
Material Temperature Range
NBR -25°C to 110°C (Default Option)
Viton -28°C to 204°C
PTFE -30°C to 315°C

Installation Torque For Tube Fittings​​ ​

The nuts of Beyond Fluid tube fittings are all silver plated and glaze our own patented. In this way, the installation torque can be controlled within a reasonable range. Especially in the case of narrow space or suspended operation, it makes installation very easy. The table is the installation torque data:

Installation Instruction For Tube Fittings

Installation Instructions For Tube Fittings
Tube Fitting Installation Guide

Tube Fittings Up to 1 in./25 mm

  1. Insert the tube fully and finger-tighten the nut.
  2. Mark the nut at the 6 o’clock position.
  3. Tighten:
    • Small sizes (≤4 mm or ≤3/16″): Turn to 3 o’clock (¾ turn).
    • Larger sizes (≥6 mm or ≥¼”): Turn to 9 o’clock (1¼ turns).
Tube Fittings Over 1 in. / 25 mm

Tube Fittings Over 1 in. / 25 mm

  1. Preswage ferrules onto the tube using the MHSU tool.
  2. Lightly lubricate body threads and back ferrule rear surface.
  3. Insert the tube until the front ferrule seats; finger-tighten the nut.
  4. Mark the nut at the 6 o’clock position.
  5. Hold the body steady; tighten the nut ½ turn to the 12 o’clock position.

Reassembly Instruction For Tube Fittings

Reassembly Instructions

Beyond Fluid tube fittings can be reassembled over 15 times. Always depressurize the system before disassembly.

  1. Before disassembly, mark the nut and fitting body to record the pulled-up position.
