These nuts are for use with all standard Valco internal fittings and most valves. They also may be used with fittings from other manufacturers. The medium and long types are ideal for metal Valco and Cheminert® valves with more than 8 ports, or
where the fitting head may be otherwise inaccessible.
They are sized for use with 1/32", 1/16", and 1/8" OD tubing, and are available in different lengths.
