PlatingVCR female nuts are silver plated. Avoid chemical processesused for cleaning, electropolishing, and passivation that willremove plating. If the plating is damaged or removed, threadgalling may occur, damaging fitting components and preventinga proper seal.

Dimensions■ Dimensions, in inches (millimeters), are for reference only

and are subject to change.

■ The E dimension refers to the smallest nominal insidediameter of the part (see ordering tables).

Pressure Ratings■ All ratings comply with calculations in accordance with

ASME Code for Pressure Piping B31.3, Process Piping.

■ To determine pressure ratings in accordance with ASMEB31.1, Power Piping, multiply psig rating by 0.94.

■ Working pressure ratings determined at room temperaturewith gasket materials shown.

TestingThe VCR fitting design has been helium leak tested to amaximum leak rate of 4 � 10–9 std cm3/s with silver-platedand copper gaskets and to a maximum leak rate of 4 � 10–11

std cm3/s with unplated gaskets.

VCR Metal Gasket Face Seal Fittings 3

Ultrahigh-PurityA variety of VCR face seal glands and bodies is availablewith controlled surface finishes, electopolished, and speciallycleaned to meet ultrahigh-purity system requirements. Formore information, see Swagelok ® Ultrahigh-Purity ProcessSpecification (SC-01).

VCR components offer the high purity of a metal-to-metal seal,providing leak-tight service from vacuum to positive pressure.

The seal on a VCR assembly is made when the gasket iscompressed by two beads during the engagement of a malenut or body hex and a female nut.

DesignatorRoughnessAverage, Ra

P 5 µin. (0.13 µm)

Test port at two locationsfor easy leak testing

Standard surface finish on glandsand bodies is a roughness averageof 10 µin. (0.25 µm) Ra

Markings identify manufacturer, material, andwhen applicable, the appropriate processdesignator according to Swagelok Ultrahigh-Purity Process Specification (SC-01)
