For high-quality Tube Fittings that are cross-compatible with Swagelok Fittings, there is no better resource then Hy-Lok. We offer fittings that are utilized for sensitive applications, such as instrumentation, extreme temperatures and high pressures. When replacing or installing tube fittings, there are specific signs to look for and steps to follow.
Replacement Warning Signs
Fittings have a life cycle and it’s important to recognize when it’s time to replace parts. Warning signs fittings need replacement include corrosion, stripped threads and seal issues. Also, difficulties controlling the flow of fluids can be an indication that fittings need maintenance or replacement. High pressures and extreme temperature swings can wear down fittings, along with other rigours of production. If fluid systems start to show signs of degradation, then it’s time to source Hy-Lok fittings and valve solutions.
Failure to recognize the warning signs can translate into costly maintenance issues and production downtime. Downtime can have a myriad of costs associated with it, along with causing delays for downstream customers. It is better to replace fittings to mitigate these risks and others. Our representatives are ready to help you source tube fittings that are interchangeable with Swagelok Fittings, giving you maximum flexibility in your maintenance efforts.
