Norgren C02681038 Push-in Fitting - 10mm G3/8
Part Number: C02681038
Quick Summary
Push-in fittings enable tool-free assembly for compressed air lines in automation panels and industrial equipment. This model targets engineers and maintenance teams who need fast, leak-free connections with minimal training. In demanding environments, the silicone-free U-packing reduces contamination risk and supports clean process lines. The device uses a PBT body with nickel-plated brass components, delivering corrosion resistance and extended life in exposed environments. Temperature tolerance ranges from -20 to 60 °C and operating pressure up to 10 bar, broadening its suitability for panels, conveyors, and robotics. Pair it with compatible 10 mm tubing for efficient, scalable pneumatic systems across OEM and service contexts.

Feature: Tool-free Push-in connection enables quick, tool-free assembly for compressed-air lines, reducing installation time and field failures. The business impact is lower labor costs and shorter downtime during plant changes, with predictable assembly across shifts. Application includes control panels, automated lines, and space-constrained cabinets where quick connections matter. Feature: Releasable stainless-steel grab-ring grips tubing securely, preventing slip and leaks in dynamic environments. This improves reliability in vibrating machinery and long runs of nylon or polyurethane tubing. Application includes 10 mm O/D tubing in industrial automation circuits and conveyance systems. Feature: Nickel-plated brass components deliver corrosion and contamination resistance, extending life in harsh production lines and washdown areas. This supports maintenance schedules and reduces part replacements. Application spans outdoor or humid factory environments where material durability matters. Feature: Silicone-free U-packing provides immediate sealing without silicone migration, preserving pneumatic cleanliness and material compatibility. Application includes process lines sensitive to silicones and clean-room setups. Feature: Wide operating range -20 to 60 °C and 0-10 bar makes the fitting suitable for versatile applications, from cold environments to heated machinery zones. Pairing with 10 mm tubing simplifies system design for OEMs and service teams. Feature: 10 mm O/D tubing compatibility and G3/8 thread standardization streamline sourcing and maintenance, improving spare-part availability and reducing inventory complexity.

FAQs
Yes. The C02681038 Pneufit C Tee is designed for 10 mm O/D tubing, and the releasable stainless-steel grab-ring securely grips natural PA tubing such as PA2-0010025C. Ensure the tube is cut square and inserted fully to maintain a leak-free seal. The silicone-free U-packing supports contamination-sensitive pneumatic circuits.
The fitting operates from -20 to 60 °C and supports pressures from 0 to 10 bar. This broad range makes it suitable for most standard industrial environments, including cold start scenarios and moderate heat zones. Always verify system conditions and avoid exposure to pressures beyond the specified maximum.
The port size is 10 mm with a G3/8 thread, and the connection is a Tee-shaped Pneufit C. The O/D tube compatibility is 10 mm, matching standard 10 mm pneumatic tubing. This standardization simplifies integration with existing 10 mm systems and minimizes part variety in assemblies.
Body material is PBT with nickel-plated brass components, and seals are NBR silicone-free. The silicone-free packing reduces the risk of silicone contamination in pneumatic circuits, which is particularly important for food-grade, medical, or clean-room–adjacent applications and other sensitive processes.
Pneufit C delivers tool-free, fast assembly that reduces installation time and training needs. The robust materials provide durability in harsh environments while the 10 mm tubing compatibility and standardized G3/8 threading simplify sourcing and stocking. This supports rapid retrofits, minimized downtime, and predictable maintenance planning across production lines.
