Tube Fittings Purpose and benefits Tube fittings provide secure, leaktight connections between tubing and other components in fluid, gas, or air systems. They enable modular tubing layouts with reliable seals and straightforward installation. Function and compatibility Connect tubes to valves, manifolds, adapters, and other fittings. Support multiple connection styles such as compression, pushtoconnect, and threaded options, depending on the model. For liquids and gases, verify chemical compatibility and temperature range for your application. Check model specs for exact fit with tube materials and dimensions. Size and materials Available in multiple sizes to fit standard tubing outer diameters. Materials vary by model; refer to the specific product variant for exact material options. Maximum operating pressure is model dependent; confirm the rating on the product page for your configuration. Performance Designed to maintain a seal under vibration, pressure fluctuations, and temperature changes. Built for repeated assembly and disassembly in modular piping layouts. Use scenarios Pneumatic control line in a manufacturing line: connect air supply to actuators and valves with a secure, leakresistant joint. Coolant delivery in a machining setup: route coolant lines to tool spindles with reliable sealing and easy reconfiguration. Laboratory fluid handling: join tubing for chromatography or sample transfer with consistent performance and ease of maintenance. Installation and maintenance considerations Inspect tubing ends for burrs and clean surfaces before installation. Do not overtighten beyond model specifications. After assembly, test for leaks during initial operation and perform periodic checks as part of routine maintenance.
