A spring washer compression fitting 10 employes a conical frustum shaped spring washer 46 which, when axially compressed within the fitting, causes radial deformation of the associated tube 28 thereby sealingly connecting the fitting to the tube. The internal bore portion 24 of the fitting has a dimension greater than that of the external diameter of the associated tube, so that a limited extent of off- axis orientation between the internal bore and the longitudinal axis of the tube is permitted. A second embodiment of this invention is described wherein a pair of identical spring washers are employed in opposed relationship. <IMAGE> |
