Complete Tee 1/2 (M/F) - 3/8 (JG) COD: CL-R000489

The fittings can be divided into two types:

A) unit of measurement in millimetres, usually black in colour (metric system).

B) unit of measurement in inches, usually grey in colour (Imperial Anglo-Saxon system).

The connection is made up of three elements:

The body is made of acetal copolymer plastic, the tweezers are made of acetal copolymer with stainless steel teeth and the O-ring is made of non-toxic nitric rubber.

These characteristics make them usable for food liquids, compressed air, CO2 and other gas mixtures.

Features of the fittings:

Wide range of sizes available

Quick connection and disconnection

Possibility of reusing both the fittings and the tube

No tools are required

High mechanical resistance

Non-toxic materials approved by the FAD (Food and Drug Administration)

The product complies with EEC standards for food products

Practical advice:

For correct installation, check that the pipe is free from scratches and that it is deburred before inserting it into the fitting.

The fitting should not be tightened too hard: it should be tightened by hand and if using a wrench, a maximum of half a turn more than when tightened by hand.

Making a joint:

○ Cut the tube perpendicularly
○ Push the tube into the fitting until it stops.
○ Check the tightness by pulling the tube

Disconnection:
○ Before disconnecting, make sure the system is depressurized.
○ Push the tube and tweezers towards the fitting and remove the tube.
