Tool-free connections accelerate panel assembly and changeouts, reducing downtime and labor costs in automated lines. The Pneufit C design enables quick, reliable installations with a secure push-in mechanism that eliminates the need for tools, improving overall line throughput in factory automation. In practice, this means faster commissioning of pneumatic circuits and less risk of under-tightened fittings that can cause leaks in high-cycle environments. The releasable stainless-steel grab-ring provides a robust grip on 4 mm outer diameter tubing (nylon or polyurethane, 85 or 95 durometer), enabling swift tube removal for maintenance or reconfiguration without damaging the line. This translates to lower maintenance costs and greater uptime for robotic cells and packaging lines. The silicone-free U-packing ensures immediate, consistent sealing, minimizing contamination risk and post-installation resealing time, which is especially important in food-and-beverage and pharmaceutical automation environments where cleanliness standards are critical. With nickel-plated brass components, the assembly gains corrosion resistance and extended service life in challenging plant environments, reducing total cost of ownership. The body is constructed from PBT with NBR seals, balancing chemical resistance and performance in compressed-air systems while maintaining a compact profile suitable for tight panel spaces. The specified operating range of 0–10 bar and -20 to 60 °C supports reliable operation across typical factory climates, while the 4 mm port size and M5 thread ensure compatibility with a wide range of micro-pneumatic manifolds and tubing inventories. Overall, the combination of tool-free installation, secure tube retention, contamination-free sealing, and durable materials makes Pneufit C a compelling choice for OEMs and maintenance teams seeking efficient, maintainable pneumatic plumbing in automation applications.

FAQs
To install, insert 4 mm OD tubing into the push-in port until seated. The stainless-steel grab-ring provides an audible/visible lock, allowing tool-free connections suitable for nylon or polyurethane tubing (85–95 duro). Ensure the tubing length and routing avoid kinking. The M5 thread mates with compatible pneumatic manifolds or ports, enabling quick, reliable panel plumbing in automation spaces. The assembly is designed for straightforward replacements or reconfigurations without specialized tooling, reducing downtime in production lines.
The Pneufit C C02680405 supports an operating pressure range of 0 to 10 bar (0 to 145 psi) and a temperature range of -20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F). This makes it suitable for most standard compressed-air circuits in manufacturing environments, from general automation to small pneumatic actuators. The combination of nickel-plated brass components and NBR seals provides durability and resistance to typical process contaminants, while maintaining reliable sealing under expected cycling pressures.
Yes. The 4 mm O/D tubing with M5 thread is common in compact automation panels and robotics actuation circuits. The tool-free push-in design speeds assembly and rework, which is valuable in evolving automation setups. With a robust grab-ring, corrosion-resistant components, and silicone-free U-packing, the part supports frequent cycling and clean, leak-free connections in automated pick-and-place, conveyor, and actuated tooling environments.
The data provided does not specify certifications such as CE or IP ratings for this exact part. For regulatory compliance, always verify the datasheet (Datasheet PDF) and any regional approvals with the manufacturer or supplier. In practice, users should confirm applicable standards for their industry (e.g., CE marking for EU markets) before deploying in regulated environments.
Tool-free installation and removal reduce downtime during maintenance or reconfiguration, delivering faster changeovers in production. The silicone-free U-packing minimizes contamination risk and simplifies sealing, potentially reducing leak-related losses and replacement costs. Nickel-plated brass and PBT/NBR materials provide durability against corrosion and wear, lowering total cost of ownership in environments with moisture, coolants, or particulate exposure. Overall, this reduces maintenance labor, extends service intervals, and improves machine availability.
