How to Identify and Measure Fittings
Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

Plastic Push-to-Connect Tube Fittings for Chemicals
- For Use With: Inch: Acetic Acid, Alcohol, Arsenic Acid, Benzoic Acid, Fluoboric Acid, Hydrochloric Acid, Nitric Acid, Sodium Carbonate, Sulfuric Acid
Metric: Acetic Acid, Alcohol, Arsenic Acid, Benzoic Acid, Fluoboric Acid, Sodium Carbonate, Sulfuric Acid - Temperature Range: Inch: 0° to 270° F
Metric: 32° to 175° F - Tubing: Use with hard (Durometer 55D-60D) FEP plastic
Also known as instant fittings, these chemical-resistant plastic fittings connect to tubing with a push, and an internal gripping ring and fluoroelastomer O-ring hold the tubing tight. To disconnect, push on the release ring and pull the tubing out of the fitting.
PVDF fittings offer excellent chemical resistance, and can be used with hydrochloric acid and nitric acid. They withstand temperatures up to 270° F, higher than other push-to-connect fittings for chemicals. They are produced in a clean room and are bagged individually to prevent dirt and moisture from contaminating the inside. PVDF is also known as Kynar.

Caps fit over a tube stem end of a fitting or a piece of tubing.

Plastic Cam-and-Groove Hose Couplings for Chemicals and Petroleum
Made of plastic, these couplings are lighter in weight than metal cam-and-groove hose couplings, yet have the chemical resistance to withstand gasoline and other harsh substances. A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately) that allow you to quickly connect and disconnect medium-to large-diameter hose lines. To connect, insert the plug into the socket and press the levers down. The levers fit snugly into the groove on the plug’s body and force the plug against the gasket to form a tight seal. To disconnect, lift both levers and pull out the plug.
Plugs with male threaded end are also known as F adapters.
Plugs with female threaded end are also known as A adapters.
Plugs with barbed end are also known as E adapters. Insert the barbed end into rubber hose and secure with a clamp.
Sockets with locking levers prevent accidental disconnection. The locking pins engage automatically when the coupling is connected. Press the locking pins simultaneously to disengage.
PVDF plugs and sockets have better corrosion and chemical resistance than nylon plugs and sockets. Use them when your application involves harsh acids and solvents.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.
Warning: Relieve all pressure before disconnecting the couplings. Do not use cam-and-groove couplings with compressed air or gas.
