Aren't those just for aluminum tubing though? It doesn't say anything about stainless tubing in the descriptions, just aluminum tubing. I would think that would make a major difference.

That's what steered me towards the yorlok and swagelok style fittings like I linked above before I ultimately just went with PTFE lined braided hose. I know for a fact the yorlok and swagelok fittings hold tight on stainless as we use them with stainless tubing in high pressure tester applications where I work.
