KF fittings KF flanges

Guanyu Tube offers a complete line of vacuum KF fittings and KF flanges. The tube portions are fabricated from 304 or 316L or other high quality stainless steels. Guanyu’s elbows, and all tees and crosses are made with the pull port technique. This allows smooth, crevice-free butt welds to provide the maximum in cleanliness for UHV applications. Bakeout range is up to 200°C. Standard finish is bead blasted.
