A pipeline fitting comprises a body having a first tubular nose section formed on a first end portion of the pipeline fitting. At least one gripping member having a ramped wall extends axially over the body from the first nose section, the gripping member terminating in a lengthened radial gripping surface located between first and second shortened radial gripping surfaces that are positioned perpendicularly on the body to the axial direction of the gripping member ramped wall. The gripping member is configured to be received at least partly within the end portion of a tube when the gripping member is received at least partly within the end portion of the tube to frictionally engage an inner surface of the end portion of the tube to the gripping member.
