The Male Connector (Metric Tube to SAE/MS) is a high-performance instrumentation fitting designed to provide a secure transition between metric-sized tubing and a female SAE/MS straight-thread port. This connector utilizes a precision double-ferrule compression system on the tube side to ensure a leak-proof, torque-free seal that resists vibration and high pressure. The male side features straight threads (UNF) and is equipped with an O-ring or a gasket to create a gastight seal against the face of the port, rather than relying on thread deformation. Often manufactured from 316 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance, these connectors are a standard choice for hydraulic systems and high-precision fluid power applications where a reliable, repeatable seal is essential for maintaining system integrity.
