In small sizes, the compression fitting is composed of an outer compression nut and an inner compression ring or ferrule (sometimes referred to as an "olive") that is typically made of brass or copper. Ferrules vary in shape and material but are most commonly in the shape of a ring with beveled edges. To work properly, the ferrule must be oriented correctly – usually the ferrule is fitted such that the longest sloping face of the ferrule faces away from the nut. 2, record 2, English, - compression%20fitting
