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.

Plugs insert into the push-to-connect end of another fitting.

Ultra-High-Polish Gasket Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing
- For Use With: Argon, Helium, Nitrogen
- Temperature Range: -420° to 1000° F
- Tubing: Use with 316/316L stainless steel
- Compatible With: Swagelok® VCR
The 15 Ra finish on the interior of these fittings creates an ultra-smooth surface. Also known as ultra-high-purity fittings, they are packed in a Class 100 clean room to prevent contamination. They are commonly used in semiconductor applications. Fittings use a metal gasket (sold separately), which generates fewer particles than a rubber gasket and creates a strong seal in high-pressure and high-vacuum applications. Fittings are 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance.

Thread these fittings onto your testing equipment by hand for a secure connection in testing applications—no tools, tape, or sealant required. Use them with gauges and other equipment as a temporary connection. When pressure is applied, the O-ring on the outlet presses against the testing equipment, creating a tight seal.
Adapters with intermittent swivel rotate 360° until tightened for easy installation.

Pressure Test Fittings
Check pressure without permanently installing a gauge. Fittings have an NPT male connection for installation in your pipe or tank. Wrench-tighten the fitting onto your equipment, then insert the gauge adapter (sold separately) into the fitting. Connect gauge adapters to gauges with 1/4 pipe size NPT male threads.
