A fitting for securing a first fluid conduit to a second fluid conduit includes a coupling body and a die ring. The coupling body includes a first end and a second end defining an enclosed passage along a longitudinal axis therethrough. The first end of the coupling body includes a deformable compression sleeve having an outer diameter and an inner diameter defining a thickness. The die ring is disposed in surrounding relation to the compression sleeve, and includes an inner surface and engagement surface, wherein the engagement surface includes a diameter that is less than the outer diameter of the compression sleeve. When the first fluid conduit is inserted into the coupling body, the die ring engagement surface is adapted to compress the compression sleeve radially inward when the die ring is urged in an axial direction towards a second end of the coupling body. At least a portion of the compression sleeve flows between the inner surface of the die ring and an outer surface of the first fluid conduit. In one embodiment, the first fluid conduit is a hydraulic hose. In another embodiment, the first fluid conduit is cross-linked polyethylene tubing. |
