Pipe fitting
3 000 - 8 000 psi | Dynatube® Parker Stratoflex

The Stratoflex Products Division designs and manufactures lightweight Dynatube® fittings, designed for the high temperature, high pressure, no-leak requirements of aircraft and aerospace fluid and pneumatic systems.

The Dynatube fitting is a metal-to-metal fitting providing significant savings on weight and envelope over all other types of aerospace fittings. The fitting is a dual seal fitting that provides a self-locking feature.

The original "beam seal" fitting designed and patented in 1963, the Dynatube fitting has benefited from literally thousands of tests and evolutionary refinements.
