DOT Fittings are Alkon’s flagship product; we offer them in thousands of standard and custom configurations, all with the same premium quality and performance. Alkon fittings have a positive seal with more tube support area beyond the O-ring than competing products. This compensates for bias-cut tubing, which will cut assembly time drastically. This, in combination with a floating tube support, provides great leak-free performance in any application. Fixed elbows and tees are the utmost in economy, while swivel elbows and tees provide easier close center-line installation with no orientation problems. Custom part orders are welcomed to ensure you get and pay for exactly what you need.
Our North American, vertically integrated manufacturing footprint allows us to provide fittings at the highest level of quality while providing rapid and friendly service. No more waiting for parts stuck on a container ship. We put our fittings through rigorous testing to ensure they exceed DOT standards SAE J2494-3 and FMVSS 49 CFR 571.106. Keep your and your customer’s assets on the road and protect your brand reputation by using Alkon fittings.
DOT Brass Fittings
Brass fittings are corrosion and rust resistant and allow for easy and leak-free assembly. Brass will not become brittle in extreme temperatures. Our deeper tube insertion length and floating tube support allow you to achieve leak free first-pass yield, cutting down on assembly costs. We have almost any combination of tube size and configuration on the shelf.
DOT Extreme Fittings
These fittings are the ideal solution for high performance in extreme temperatures, from -40° F up to 400° F. We’ve added Viton O-rings for performance at temperature and higher grade thread sealant to resist chemical attacks, corrosion, vibration and thermal shock to ensure longer leak-free operation.
DOT Composite Fittings
Composite fittings weigh about half that of brass fittings. When using a large number of fittings on a truck or trailer, there can be a noticeable weight savings when utilizing composite fittings. Alkon’s composite fittings combine the best of both worlds; our brass nose, gripper and tube support give the performance needed to pass DOT testing while the composite body reduces the weight.
Pipe Fittings
All pipe fittings meet the highest standards and are available in a variety of sizes and configurations. Brass resists corrosion and every pipe fitting is precisely machined for reliability.
