How To Select The Ferrule Joint What Are Its Advantages?

Selection of Ferrule

When used in combination with correctly selected ferrule joints, proper selection, handling and installation of ferrules are critical to obtaining a reliable piping system. When ordering tubes for use with ferrule joints, the following variables should be considered:

1. The surface is smooth and clean

2. Materials

3. Hardness

4. Wall thickness

Joint Advantages of AFK Ferrule

AFK is constantly improving the leak proof design of its ferrule connector, enabling it to be applied to thousands of non use applications, including research, analysis and process inspection instruments, bioengineering, oil and gas, power, petrochemical, and semiconductor industries, and focusing on the following key issues

1. Leakage

2. Vibration (the ferrule is tightened)

3. Thermal shock

4. Conform to industrial standards

5. Installation

6. Corrosion

1. Leakage

Excellent gas sealing and reliable re installation help ensure accurate measurement of process parameters, such as gas, steam, fuel and water, and enable effective operation of your plant. In addition, AFK ferrule joint also minimizes fugitive discharge, process fluid leakage and operating costs.

2. Vibration (the ferrule is tightened)

The tested surface hardening process and rear ferrule geometry provide excellent anti vibration fatigue performance and harsh ferrule support, even in harsh or extreme pressure environments, such as fuel processing or rotating equipment applications.

3. Thermal shock

The elastic live load double ferrule design compensates for temperature changes during system startup and shutdown, and helps eliminate rapid thermal expansion or surgery related leaks.

4. Installation

The installation of AFK ferrule connector has the following advantages:

1. Easy to install

2. The torque will not be transmitted to the ferrule during installation

3. AFK clearance inspection ensures that it is fully tightened after the first installation.

5. Corrosion

AFK ferrule joints are available with various subsidy materials, including 316 stainless steel and many other alloys whose chemical properties are controlled. These materials have strong corrosion resistance in various applications.
