VCR Gasket Filter is used for filtering ultra-high-purity process gases inside the face-seal fitting itself, with a sintered metal disc built into the metal gasket — zero added length and no extra joints. Fits 1 is the reference cited for it on drawings, datasheets and purchase orders.
What Fits 1 Means for VCR Gasket Filter
The dimensions in the table below are supplied to suit Fits 1. Where the standard sets requirements for the finished appliance, device or system, compliance testing of that assembly stays with its manufacturer; we supply the metal mesh part to the drawing and can provide material certificates and dimensional reports with the shipment.

Specifying VCR Gasket Filter Beyond the Standard
- Fitting size: Matches 1/4 in or 1/2 in face-seal glands.
- Rating: 0.5–5 µm sintered media; finer ratings cost flow.
- Gasket material: SS316L for general gases, nickel for corrosive or high-purity service.
When VCR Gasket Filter Is Not the Right Choice
Not designed for high dirt loads; inline filter housings take more contamination.
