Stainless Steel SMC 8-8N-TM – 1/2 in. Tube OD x 1/2 in. MNPT, Bored-Through Male Connector

The SMC 8-8N-TM is a 1/2" tube OD x 1/2" Male NPT bored-through connector engineered for high-flow performance in sanitary and industrial systems. Built from 316 stainless steel, this fitting allows uninterrupted media transfer—ideal for gas, liquid, and chemical lines where precision and purity are critical.

The full-flow bored-through design minimizes turbulence and restriction, making it a solid choice for hydrogen fuel lines, OEM skids, lab instrumentation, and clean-in-place (CIP) applications. It features a dual-ferrule compression end and precision-cut NPT threads for repeatable, leak-tight connections even in dynamic, high-vibration environments.

Key Benefits

• Flow: Bored-through body provides clean, unrestricted media passage
• Seal: Dual-ferrule compression + NPT thread for secure, leak-free connections
• Durability: Built for vibration, thermal expansion, and high-pressure service
• Compatibility: Integrates with 1/2" tubing and Swagelok® style fittings
• Material: 316 stainless supports hygienic, chemical, and clean system standards

Typical Applications

• Sanitary stainless steel fluid systems
• Hydrogen, CNG, and fuel system assemblies
• OEM instrumentation builds and skids
• Lab equipment and cleanroom installations
• CIP instrumentation and chemical control loops
