Stainless Steel Bulkhead Union – 1/2 in. Tube OD (SBHU-8) (SBHU-8)
The SBHU-8 is a 1/2" straight bulkhead union designed for clean, secure tubing connections through panels, enclosures, or skids in pressurized systems. Made from corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel, this fitting maintains internal and external line integrity with a vibration-resistant dual-ferrule seal.
Built for process-critical environments, the SBHU-8 is ideal for OEM fluid panels, CIP (Clean-in-Place) skids, hydrogen gas loops, and other high-purity or industrial applications where rugged performance and sanitary-grade cleanliness are required.
Precision-machined for tight tolerances and durability under pressure, this bulkhead union fits standard 1/2" stainless tubing and integrates easily with Swagelok® style systems for repeatable, reliable performance.
Key Benefits
- Structure: Panel-mount design maintains seal integrity across enclosures
- Sealing: Dual-ferrule system ensures repeatable, leak-tight connections
- Corrosion Resistance: 316 stainless handles harsh fluids and cleaning cycles
- Compatibility: Seamlessly fits into Swagelok® style systems with 1/2" tubing
- Durability: Built for CIP, gas loops, and process skids under high stress
Typical Applications
- Clean-in-place instrumentation systems
- OEM builds and sanitary stainless steel panels
- Chemical, gas, or hydrogen distribution loops
- Enclosed fluid networks requiring wall-mounted fittings
- Lab, industrial, or fuel delivery assemblies
