Swagelok VCO® O-Ring Face Seal Fittings
Easy-to-assemble Swagelok VCO® O-ring face seal fittings feature a metal-to-elastomer seal contained entirely in the fitting body that allows for simple, rapid, leak-tight installation in high-purity and general industrial pipe, tube, and welded systems.
View VCO® O-Ring Face Seal FittingsSwagelok VCO® O-ring face seal fittings are suitable for use with high to critical vacuum pressures and over a wide range of temperatures. The captive O-ring responsible for sealing is completely contained in the fitting body for maximum efficiency, and a smooth finish on the gland face facilitates a positive seal. O-rings are available in a variety of materials to maximize system compatibility.
Our vacuum coupling O-ring (VCO®) fittings can be easily assembled, minimizing installation time and making them ideal for use in situations where components may require replacement or frequent service. They can also be used where space is a limitation, as no axial clearance is required for installation. Because the face seal fitting design has less area of entrapment and is cleaner than tube fittings, limiting the potential for contamination, Swagelok VCO® fittings are also compatible with high-purity applications.
