SERTO Selection

SERTO has developed the SERTO Selection product range to meet the highest requirements for tightness and cleanliness in stainless steel connecting components. SERTO Selection stands for ultrasonically cleaned, lubricant-free stainless steel connections with electropolished surfaces and no dead space.

SERTO Selection UHP is a new development. It includes the union nut made of Nitronic®60, electropolished weld-on nipple made of stainless steel 1.4404 with PTFE or silver coating, the union body, also made of electropolished stainless steel 1.4404, as well as the electropolished weld-on elbow and tee.

The coated sealing surfaces are abrasion-free and the dead space-free design prevents dirt from building up on the components. All UHP products have a lasered production code for full traceability. The low leakage rate of 10‑11 mbar x l/s and the high resistance to pressure of up to 500 bar allow a wide range of applications.
