ABSTRACT:
An improved tubing connector assembly for coupling flexible tubing and forming a fluid tight seal is described. The tubing connector assembly includes a connector threadably engaging a nut to fully enclose a ferrule and a collet. Due to the surface interactions between the components of the invention, the ferrule and collet are axially compressed to grasp the tubing and obtain a very strong mechanical grip.
