Swagelok Small-Bore Tubing Solution Delivers Lower Costs

A Swagelok Small-Bore Tubing Solution delivers a significantly lower total installed cost vs. Threaded or Welded Fluid Systems.

Initially, Swagelok premium-quality, ultra-durable componentry is more expensive than materials required for a typical piping system.  But when you factor in the labor costs, equipment, permits, inspections, and numerous other costs associated with welded and threaded offerings, Swagelok becomes your more cost-effective choice.

Plus, Swagelok tube fittings and tubing mean far fewer overall connections – and are leak-tight and easy to install.

Here's an example to help illustrate:

JOB: Water Service

APPLICATION: 1"-diameter steel lines

TOTAL SYSTEM COSTS (materials, labor, equipment/tools, downtime, related expenses…):

Welded $18,807

Threaded $9,312

Swagelok $8,318

Swagelok Total Savings vs. Welded System: 44%

Swagelok Total Savings vs. Threaded System: 11%

A Swagelok Small-Bore Tubing solution is safer, more efficient, more reliable, longer-lasting, simpler to assemble and maintain, – and, in the long-term, more affordable – than a welded or threaded fluid system.

That's a fact.
