Stainless Grades and
Clean Finishing

316L is the default for wetted parts. Electropolishing, passivation and ultrasonic cleaning are what take the parts to a high-purity standard.

CMM inspection of a machined aluminium part
  • 01

    Incoming material

    Each bar is matched to its mill certificate and heat number before cutting, so the 316L on your drawing is the 316L in your parts, traceable to the lot.

  • 02

    First article inspection

    Piece one goes to the CMM. You receive the measurement report and sign it off before the rest of the lot is cut.

  • 03

    In-process SPC

    Operators pull samples against an AQL plan while the lot runs, so a drifting sealing-face or thread dimension is corrected mid-run.

  • 04

    Final inspection

    All parts in a lot get a 100% dimensional and visual check, then cleaning and particle-free packing. The material certificate and inspection record go in the box. Have a gland, nut or gasket drawing ready? Request a quote and the first-article report arrives before production.

FAQs

VCR Fitting Questions,
Answered

Ask a Question
  • What are VCR fittings?

    VCR fittings are metal gasket face-seal connectors. A gland, a nut and a replaceable metal gasket form a metal-to-metal seal for clean gas and vacuum lines. Ours are VCR-type parts made to your drawing.

  • What does VCR stand for in fittings?

    VCR is a Swagelok trademark for its metal gasket face-seal line, not a generic standard name. That is why we call our parts VCR-type: they are machined to your drawing and never presented as Swagelok products.

  • Who makes VCR fittings?

    Swagelok owns the VCR brand and makes the original line, which distributors resell. Divine Precision does not sell Swagelok parts. We machine VCR-type glands, nuts and gaskets to your drawing at our Dongguan factory.

  • Can your parts mate with existing face-seal fittings?

    We build to your print, or to a sample we measure through reverse engineering. Fit with your existing parts is confirmed on the first article, and you receive the FAI report before the batch runs.

  • How few glands or nuts can I order, and how fast?

    A single gland, nut or gasket is a valid order. A first sample can ship in as little as 3 days, usually within 2–3 weeks, via prototype and low-volume production. Full lots typically run 4–6 weeks; rush slots are quoted per job.

  • What should I send for a quote?

    A STEP or IGES model plus a 2D drawing with GD&T is ideal. We also accept SolidWorks, ProE, PDF and DWG files. Add quantity, material (such as 316L), finish and packing needs. An NDA is available on request.
