Suitable for

• Hydraulic system connections
• Pneumatic piping assemblies
• Professional plumbing installations
• Industrial fluid transport lines
• Maintenance and repair of threaded pipe systems

When it may not be suitable

This connector is not intended for use in systems where the operating temperature exceeds 120°C or falls below -20°C, as these extremes may compromise the integrity of the O-ring seal. It is also not suitable for applications involving highly corrosive chemicals that are incompatible with brass materials.

Key specifications

• Material: Brass
• Connection type: 3/8" male-to-female
• Operating temperature range: -20°C to +120°C
• Design: 3-piece with integrated O-ring

How to use

To install the connector, ensure that the mating threads are clean and free of debris. Align the male and female ends carefully to avoid cross-threading. Tighten the connection using appropriate tools, ensuring the O-ring is properly seated to create a secure seal. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the threads or the sealing element.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the thread size of your existing piping to ensure compatibility with the 3/8" specification.
• Check that your system operating temperature remains within the -20°C to +120°C range.
• Ensure the brass material is compatible with the fluids or gases being transported in your system.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the connection for signs of wear or leakage, especially in high-pressure environments. If the system is disassembled, it is recommended to inspect the O-ring for damage and replace it if necessary to maintain a perfect seal.
