Features
Swagelok VCR fittings offer the high purity of a metalto-metal seal, providing leak-tight service from vacuum to
positive pressure.
Minimal clearance
required for removal
The seal on a VCR assembly is made when the gasket is

compressed by two beads during the engagement of a male
nut or body hex and a female nut.
Side-load retainer gasket for

easy installation and minimal
clearance for removal
Test port at two locations for

easy leak testing
Markings identify manufacturer,

material, and when applicable,
the appropriate process
designator, in accordance
with Swagelok Ultrahigh-Purity
Process Specification (SC01),
MS-06-61
Standard surface finish on

glands and bodies is a roughness
average of 10 in. (0.25 m) Ra
No virtual leak zones

Precision manufactured gasket
for maximum performance
Female threads are silver plated

to prevent galling, ensure easy,
consistent assembly

Plating
VCR female nuts are silver plated. Avoid chemical processes
used for cleaning, electropolishing, and passivation that
will remove plating. If the plating is damaged or removed,
thread galling may occur, damaging fitting components and
preventing a proper seal.
Testing
The VCR fitting design has been helium leak tested to a
maximum leak rate of 4 3 10 9 std cm3/s with silver-plated
and copper gaskets and to a maximum leak rate of 4 3 10 11
std cm3/s with unplated gaskets.
Cleaning
Ultrahigh-Purity Processing
Components are cleaned to remove oil, grease, and loose

particles. For more information, see Swagelok Standard
Cleaning and Packaging (SC-10), MS-06-62.
A variety of VCR face seal glands and bodies is available

with controlled surface finishes, electropolished, and
specially cleaned to meet ultrahigh-purity system
requirements. For more information, see Swagelok UltrahighPurity Process Specification (SC-01), MS-06-61.
Ordering Information, Pressure Ratings, and Dimensions

Dimensions are for reference only and are subject to change.
The E dimension refers to the smallest nominal inside diameter of the part.
To order fittings manufactured in accordance with Swagelok Ultrahigh-Purity Process Specification (SC-01), MS-06-61,
add P to the ordering number.
