Legris 3675 56 14 Nickel-Plated Brass Push-to-Connect Fitting, Inline Connector, 1/4" Tube OD x 1/4" NPT Male
This Legris 3675 inline connector is a nickel-plated brass push-to-connect fitting that connects a tube to a female threaded connection in a straight line. It has a push-to-connect tube connection on one end and male National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads on the other end for connecting to male threaded pipes. The NPT threads create a tighter seal than straight threads. This fitting's FDA-approved nickel plating is corrosion resistant, ferromagnetic, maintains much of its strength at high temperatures, and stays tough and ductile at low temperatures. Brass is resistant to corrosion, ductile at high temperatures, and has low magnetic permeability. The fitting is suitable for handling pressures up to 435 pounds per square inch (psi) (30 bar), has an operating temperature range of -20 to +150 degrees C (-4 to +302 degrees F), and has a vacuum capability of 755 mm Hg. This fitting meets Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and EU regulation 1935/2004/EC technical specifications. This inline connector tube fitting is suitable for use in air, water, oil, chemical, and food applications.
Tube fittings are components used for connecting, branching, terminating, and changing the direction of tubing in pneumatic and hydraulic systems. They are made of brass, stainless steel, PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), and other materials that resist corrosion and wear. Tube fittings have various types of connections, including threaded, welded, barbed, and push-to-connect (also called one-touch). Push-to-connect connections do not require tools or sealants. Tube fittings are used in various applications, including machine tools, airplane and truck controls, and automated production lines, among others.
