Plastic Quick-Turn Tube Couplings for Air and Water

- For Use With: Polycarbonate Plastic: Air
Nylon Plastic: Air, Water
Polypropylene Plastic: Water - Temperature Range: Nylon Plastic, Polycarbonate Plastic: -20° to 200° F
Polypropylene Plastic: 35° to 150° F - Tubing: Use with soft (Durometer 40A-65A) PVC plastic or silicone rubber
Made of plastic, these couplings are lighter in weight than metal quick-turn couplings. Also known as luer lock couplings, they consist of a plug and socket (sold separately) that connect with a half turn. They have a compact body for easy installation in tight spaces. Plugs and sockets are open-flow style, so there is no shut-off valve to stop the flow when the coupling is separated. They have a universal connection, so the plugs will connect to any of the sockets, regardless of the pipe or tube size.
Polypropylene plugs and sockets are moisture resistant and won’t absorb water and lose strength, even in high-humidity environments.
Note: For a complete coupling, order a plug and a socket.

Barbed plugs and sockets insert into tubing and secure with a clamp.

Plastic Quick-Disconnect Tube Couplings for Air and Water

Lighter in weight than their metal counterparts, these quick-disconnect couplings are plastic. They consist of a plug and a socket that allow you to frequently connect and disconnect your line.
Polypropylene plugs and sockets are moisture resistant and have excellent impact resistance.
Plug and Sockets with shut-off have a valve to stop the flow when the coupling is separated, so air or water won’t spill from your line.
Note: For a complete coupling, order a plug and a socket with the same coupling size.

Push-to-Connect Fittings for Plastic Tubing—High-Purity

- For Use With: Air, Nitrogen, Water
- Temperature Range: 32° to 100° F
- Tubing: Use with polypropylene plastic
Also known as instant fittings, these connect to tubing with a push, and an internal gripping ring and O-ring hold the tubing tight. To disconnect, push on the release ring and pull the tubing out of the fitting. Fittings are produced in a clean room and are double bagged to prevent dirt and moisture from contaminating the inside. They are polypropylene, which has excellent impact and abrasion resistance.
