Quick-Turn Couplings for Plastic
and Rubber Tubing—Chemicals
- For Use With: Acetic Acid, Bleach, Nitric Acid
- Temperature Range: 35° to 150° F
- Tubing: Use with soft (Durometer 40A-65A) PVC plastic or silicone rubber, except fittings with male threaded pipe connection and plugs for sockets
Also known as luer lock couplings, these 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. Plug 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. Made of PVDF (also known as Kynar), they have excellent chemical resistance.
Note: For a complete coupling, order a plug and a socket.

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.

Quick-Clamp Fittings for Dairy
- Temperature Range: 0° to 140° F
- Tubing: Use with soft (Durometer 50A-65A) silicone rubber
- Specifications Met: See table
Also known as single-use fittings, these are disposable so you don't have to sterilize your line. Join the flanged end of the fittings to any other sanitary stainless steel quick-clamp fitting (sold separately) with a gasket and a clamp for a fast and easy way to access your line. Fittings have a smooth interior to prevent product buildup and contamination. They are PVDF (also known as Kynar), which has excellent strength.
Note: For a complete connection, you’ll need two quick-clamp fittings, a clamp, and a gasket (all sold separately).

Plastic Quick-Clamp Sanitary
Fittings for Stainless Steel Tubing
- For Use With: Dairy, Water
- Temperature Range: -40° to 170° F, except gaskets (see table)
- Tubing: Use with welded 304/304L or 316/316L stainless steel that meets ASTM A269 or ASTM A270
- Specifications Met: 3-A Certified 62-02, FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.2510
Made of PVDF (Kynar), these fittings are lightweight compared to metal quick-clamp fittings. The clamp separates into three pieces and threads over the quick-clamp ends of the fittings to create an access point in a line. Tighten the clamp with a spanner wrench (sold separately) for a secure seal.
Note: To complete a connection, you’ll need two quick-clamp fittings, a clamp, and a gasket (all sold separately).

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.
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.
