Parker Hannifin, original Patent Holder (US 6851729 B2), for
"Tube Fitting, Medium Pressure" developed the MPI Medium
Pressure compression fitting connections to be secure and
gas-tight while being made manually (wrench turns) or hydraulic
set tool. This connection has application throughout industry,
including off-shore oil and gas exploration platforms, research
labs, and other facilities that require operating pressures to
15,000 psi (1035 bar).
MPI™ Fittings are ideally suited to handle liquids, gases, or
chemicals and can be used on a wide variety of tubing materials
including: Instrument Grade thick-walled annealed 316 SS, 1/8th
Hard (cold drawn) 316 or 317 SS MPI tubing, and 2507 Super
Duplex MPI tubing up to 1" OD. Every Parker MPI™ Fitting is
supplied complete with both ferrules and compression gland nut,
ready to install.
NOTE:
Add to the part number either -SS or -2507 depending on selected material. (Example: 16-16 FBMP7-SS)
Bulkhead hole approximately 1/64" (.015") larger than R Thread major diameter.
Dimensions in inches are for reference only, subject to change.
Pressure Rating of Fittings is controlled by tubing selected and choice of ASME Standard.
-XF Ferrules are required for 3/4" and 1" 316 SS or 2507 Super Duplex Tubing.
