316 Stainless Steel Compression Fitting Inline Filter Valve, Leak‑Resistant Compact Union for 1/8'1' Tubing

Compact compression union filter valve suitable for 3 to 32 mm tubing (1/8 to 1 inch). Available in stainless steel grades 304 and 316. Designed for reliable fluid control and inline filtration where a threaded or soldered connection is not desired. Key benefits Secure compression connection for quick installation and leakresistant joints without special tools. Stainless steel construction (304 or 316) for strong mechanical performance and long service life in demanding environments. Wide size compatibility: fits tubing and pipe from 3 mm up to 32 mm (1/8 to 1 inch), reducing the need for adapters. Compact union form factor allows easy disassembly for inspection, maintenance, or filter cleaning. Suitable for a wide range of fluids and gases where corrosion resistance and sanitary materials are needed. Important attributes Function: inline filter valve with compression union connection, controls flow while providing particulate retention. Compatibility: works with tubing and pipe in the 3 to 32 mm range (1/8 to 1 inch). Choose 304 or 316 stainless steel based on chemical exposure and corrosion considerations. Size and finish: supports multiple diameters; material grade 316 offered as the specified size option. Color code 14 available as a listed option. Performance: designed for consistent sealing under typical industrial and commercial pressures for compression fittings. Easy to access for servicing. Use scenarios Commercial water filtration loop: install as an inline valve and filter union between prefilter and cartridge housing for quick servicing without pipe cutting. Laboratory or pilot plant lines: use to isolate and filter process streams while allowing rapid disassembly for cleaning or sampling. Food and beverage or beverage dispensing systems: integrate into stainless steel tubing runs where hygienic materials and frequent maintenance access are required. Installation and maintenance notes Confirm tubing outer diameter matches the indicated size range before assembly. Tighten compression nuts to manufacturer torque recommendations to ensure leak operation. Periodically inspect and clean filter element or when flow restriction is observed. Choose 316 stainless steel for higher corrosion resistance in chloride or saltexposed environments; 304 is suitable for general applications. This compression union filter valve provides a practical, serviceable solution for inline filtration and flow isolation in systems that require durable stainless steel construction and flexible size compatibility.
