Hybrid Adapters : Swagelok­­^® Adapters

LewVac hybrid adapter fittings allow vacuum users to connect two dissimilar vacuum flanges or a vacuum flange to a fitting used in conjunction with vacuum process (Swagelok^®, VCR^®, BSP). To minimize the effect of this transition fitting on conductance, hybrid adapters are generally designed with shortest length and with largest inner diameter possible.
Hybrid adapters are not used to change sizes within one flange family.

• 304 stainless steel as standard.
• Other materials available on request.
• Custom lengths available upon request.
