Abstract
In some examples, a capillary connection fitting may include a screw drive, and a screw rotatable by the screw drive and insertable in a port. A spring carrier may be operatively disposed between the screw drive and the screw, and movable along an axis of the spring carrier by the screw drive to impart, by the screw, a sealing axial force to seal a capillary tip of a capillary against a port ground of the port.
