Abstract
A fitting element, in particular for an HPLC application, is configured for providing a fluidic coupling of a tubing to a fluidic device. The fitting element comprises a gripping piece to exert—upon coupling of the tubing to the fluidic device—a grip force (G) between the fitting element and the tubing. The gripping piece comprises a hydraulic element configured to transform an axial force (S) into a hydraulic pressure (P) within the hydraulic element. The hydraulic pressure (P) in the hydraulic element causes the grip force (G).
