Swagelok supplier in Romania
Instrumentation fittings and valves for fluid systems
Founded in 1947
Who is Swagelok and what does it make?
Swagelok is an American manufacturer of components for fluid systems, active since 1947. The company produces tube fittings, valves, pressure regulators, hoses and process instrumentation for lines carrying pressurised gases and liquids, from high vacuum to high-pressure applications. The range is built for reliable sealing on connections that are made and unmade repeatedly, which makes it a frequent choice in laboratories, pilot plants and analysis panels. For the Romanian market we can quote tube fittings, ball or needle valves and regulators from the manufacturer's current catalogue.
The main technical strength is the metal-to-metal sealing of VCR fittings and welded bellows valves, used where even minimal gas leakage is not acceptable — semiconductors, specialty gases, cryogenic applications. The Sno-Trik series needle valves cover fine adjustment at high pressures, while the 40, 60 and 83 series ball valves are for general process use.
Swagelok means parts compatible with installations already equipped to this standard and technical documentation clear enough for sizing without guesswork. It is especially useful in pilot plants, gas analysis panels and instrumentation lines where repeated tightness matters more than the initial cost of the fitting.
What do we supply from the Swagelok range?
| Product | Description |
|---|---|
| Swagelok Tube Fittings | A two-ferrule fitting system, in stainless steel, brass or carbon steel, for connecting tubes in instrumentation installations. It includes high-pressure cone-and-thread variants from the Sno-Trik series, adapters, reducers and unions. VCO fittings with O-ring sealing and VCR fittings with a metal gasket complete the range for high vacuum or high purity. They can be made and unmade repeatedly without loss of tightness, an advantage on panels that are reconfigured often. |
| Ball and Needle Valves | The 40, 60 and 83 series cover general process applications, while the GB series offers full bore for minimal pressure loss. Sno-Trik 410, 445, 645 and 945 series needle valves allow fine flow adjustment at high pressures. Welded bellows valves in the B and H series eliminate the stem gasket, useful with toxic or corrosive gases where no leakage is acceptable. |
| Pressure Regulators | Pressure reducing and back-pressure regulators, in diaphragm or dome-loaded variants, cover gas regulation from the cylinder to the point of use. The HF series, high purity and high flow, is intended for specialty gases in laboratories and semiconductor installations. There are also automatic cylinder changeover regulators, for lines that cannot be stopped when a container runs empty. |
Why Swagelok?
- Metal-to-metal sealing on VCR fittings, without a gasket subject to ageing, suited to specialty gases and vacuum lines
- Direct compatibility with existing installations on the Swagelok standard — fittings already installed do not need to be replaced
- A wide range of needle and ball valves, from everyday instrumentation to high pressure
- Technical documentation for each series, useful for correct sizing before placing the order

How do we supply Swagelok in Romania?
We supply Swagelok tube fittings, valves and regulators on the basis of the manufacturer's technical documentation — we do not keep this range on our own shelves and we do not promise immediate availability for every code. We source to order through EU supply channels, usually within 1–4 weeks, depending on confirmation from the European supply chain. For an accurate quotation we need the exact code of the fitting or valve, the tube diameter, the material and the working pressure; for regulators, also the adjustment range wanted. We do not confirm compatibility with fittings from other manufacturers without the full specification from the customer.
Each code in the Swagelok catalogue is checked individually on request, by querying the European supplier.
Frequently asked questions about Swagelok
What products does Swagelok make?
Swagelok makes tube fittings, valves, pressure regulators and hoses for industrial and laboratory fluid systems. The range runs from ordinary process instrumentation to vacuum or high-purity lines for semiconductors. We can quote from the current catalogue, based on the exact code.
How do I choose the right Swagelok fitting by code?
You need the full code from the fitting or its packaging, the tube diameter in inches or mm and the material — stainless steel, brass or carbon steel. Send us this data or a clear photo of the marking, and we identify the exact catalogue reference before preparing the quotation.
Do you supply Swagelok products in Romania and how long does it take?
We source to order through EU supply channels, usually within 1–4 weeks, depending on availability at the European supplier and the complexity of the order.
What data should I send for a needle valve quotation?
Send the series wanted, for example Sno-Trik, the connection diameter, the maximum working pressure and the fluid conveyed. If you already have a valve installed, a photo of the marking on the body helps us confirm the exact code without ambiguity.
How do I request a Swagelok quotation?
Send the Swagelok code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
