Interchange & Intermix

SSP warrants the performance of our instrumentation tube fittings assembled with intermixed and
interchanged components from Swagelok®, Parker Hannifin®, and Hoke®. Each family of SSP instrumentation
fittings are designed, manufactured, and quality controlled to provide the same level of leak-free performance
as their compatible brands. The tables below outline the compatibility of SSP instrumentation fittings with
those of other brand names.

As shown above, there are two different types of compatibility: interchange and intermix.

Interchange means that the nut and ferrule(s) combination from SSP can be assembled with the body of a
compatible brand, and vice-versa, to produce a working, leak-tight fitting. Interchange is illustrated in the
image below. Fitting interchangeability means that SSP customers with other compatible brands of fittings in
their instrumentation systems can freely replace tubing and discard the old end connections. By using new SSP
end connections, they can connect to any valve, pump, gauge or fitting body and know the new connection
will be trouble-free.

Interchange SSP tube fittings are also interchangeable within the


SSP brands Duolok, Unilok, and Griplok. This means
that the nut and ferrule(s) from any of the three
brands can safely be used across any body within
the three brands.

Interchange and Intermix are both SSP approved


practices, as long as they are performed with the
approved compatible brands.
Intermix means that any combination of SSP tube fitting components can be used with the components of a
compatible brand giving the user the opportunity to achieve maximum safety and value. Intermix is illustrated
in the image below. Since both products are manufactured to precise tolerances under rigorous quality control
procedures, the components can be intermixed and still deliver safe and reliable performance, provided that
they are properly installed and maintained.

Intermix
SSP’s intermixability means SSP tube fitting
components can be used as replacements for
components in compatible fitting assemblies,
providing the ultimate flexibility for SSP customers in
their instrumentation systems.
