Feature → Business Impact → Application: Tool-free, fast connections reduce installation time and labor costs in panel builds and automation lines, enabling higher throughput and less downtime. Application: Use in compact control panels where space is limited and rapid field replacement is required. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Releasable stainless-steel grab-ring grips nylon or polyurethane tubes (8 mm O/D, 85/95 durometer) securely, minimizing tube creep and leak paths. Application: Ideal for dynamic conveyor systems and robotic grippers where tubing experiences vibration. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Nickel-plated brass body provides corrosion and contamination resistance, extending service life in harsh production environments. Application: Suitable for washing stations and chemical-handling zones where longevity matters. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Silicone-free U-packing delivers immediate, reliable sealing with reduced contamination risk, supporting regulatory and cleanliness standards. Application: Critical in food-and-beverage packaging lines and pharma-adjacent automation. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compatible with 8 mm O/D tubes and G1/4 threads in a compact teeshape, enabling easy retrofit into existing pneumatic rails. Application: Quick upgrade to improve flow and reduce pressure drop in complex networks. Feature → Business Impact → Application: PBT body with compact dimensions (19 mm x 52 mm x 32.9 mm) and low weight (0.024 kg) simplifies installation and reduces footprint. Application: Industrial automation racks and compact manifolds where space is at a premium. Tubing PA2-0008025C and PA2-0008100 provide robust, natural-color tubing options for 8/6 mm configurations, enhancing system compatibility and supply chain consistency.

FAQs

To install, prepare the 8 mm tubing, ensure the tube is clean and cut square, and insert it into the Pneufit C Tee fitting until the stainless-steel grab-ring engages. Confirm the tube is fully seated and check for a snug, leak-free seal. If disassembly is needed, depress the release mechanism and withdraw the tube while stabilizing the fitting. This tool-free approach minimizes downtime and simplifies field servicing.
The fitting is designed for nylon or polyurethane tubes with 85 to 95 durometer and an 8 mm outer diameter. The data specifies compatible PA tubing options (PA2-0008025C and PA2-0008100) as supply references, enabling consistent material compatibility and predictable sealing performance in standard pneumatic networks.
This Pneufit C Tee is rated for 0 to 10 bar (0 to 145 psi) and operates effectively from -20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F). These ranges make it suitable for most general-purpose compressed air systems in manufacturing, packaging, and automation environments, including environments with moderate temperature swings.
Yes, the Seals are NBR with silicone-free U-packing. Silicone-free seals reduce the risk of contamination in clean or regulated environments and improve compatibility with silicone-sensitive processes. This is particularly important in food-grade, pharmaceutical, and electronics manufacturing where contaminant control is critical.
The unit measures 19 mm in height, 52 mm in length, and 32.9 mm in width, with a weight of 0.024 kg. These compact dimensions simplify mounting in tight spaces and enable precise spacing in panels, rails, or manifolds, aiding in routing and cable/line planning for automation projects.
