Norgren Pneufit C02681228 Push-in Fitting - Tee, 12mm G1/4
Part Number: C02681228
Quick Summary
Norgren Pneufit C push-in fittings enable fast, tool-free plumbing of compressed air lines in automation and pneumatics applications. Field installations often stall on tool dependence, leak risk, and downtime when routing tiny bore tubing. While the datasheet does not list SIL, CE, or IP certifications for this part, the design uses silicone-free U-packing, corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass, and a releasable grab-ring to support reliability in CE-conscious industrial environments. These attributes translate to reduced maintenance, improved system integrity, and lower total cost of ownership for automation projects. Ideal for compact compressed air systems and machine-building needs, this fitting blends robust materials with easy installation for everyday industrial automation.

Feature → Tool-free, push-in connection enables rapid assembly with no tools required. Business Impact → Reduces installation time and commissioning costs, minimizes skill-based delays on the shop floor. Application → Suitable for automated assembly lines, robotics cells, and packaging machines requiring quick-connect pneumatics. Feature → Releasable stainless-steel grab-ring provides a secure grip on nylon or polyurethane tubing (85 or 95 durometer). Business Impact → Maintains leak-tight performance under vibration and temperature cycling, lowering maintenance calls. Application → Ideal for dynamic manufacturing cells and conveyors using 12 mm OD tubing. Feature → Nickel-plated brass body delivers corrosion and contamination resistance for extended life. Business Impact → Lower replacement costs in dirty, humid, or wash-down areas and improved system uptime. Application → Harsh factory floors, outdoor installations, and wash-down environments where durability matters. Feature → Silicone-free U-packing delivers immediate, high-quality sealing without silicone contamination. Business Impact → Supports clean production lines and regulatory compliance in sensitive processes. Application → Food-grade, pharma-adjacent, and electronics manufacturing environments. Feature → Compact geometry and light weight (21 mm height; 62 × 40.6 mm; 0.05 kg). Business Impact → Simplifies panel mounting and routing, enabling higher device density and smaller enclosures. Application → Control panels, compact automation cabinets, and tight-machine layouts. Feature → Operating range −20 to 60 °C and 0 to 10 bar supports reliable performance across typical plant conditions. Business Impact → Predictable behavior and reduced risk of leaks or failure in varying ambient conditions. Application → General compressed-air circuits in automation and machine-building contexts.

FAQs
To install, simply insert the 12 mm OD tube into the Push-in Tee until it seats fully. If you need release, use the stainless-steel grab-ring to retract the internal seal and remove the tube. The fitment requires no tools, minimizing downtime during line setup in automation or packaging applications.
This Pneufit C tee operates from −20 to 60 °C and supports an operating pressure from 0 to 10 bar (0 to 145 psi). These ranges cover most standard factory environments and typical compressed-air circuits used in machine-building and automation.
Yes. The 12 mm push-in connection with G1/4 thread and tee configuration is ideal for compact pneumatic networks in packaging lines and machine-building, offering tool-free installation, quick reseating, and durable materials that resist corrosion in typical production settings.
The datasheet does not specify SIL, CE, or IP certifications for this part. Review system-level compliance for your installation and verify that the materials (silicone-free U-packing, nickel-plated brass) and assembly practices align with your regulatory requirements. For critical applications, consult Norgren support for confirmation or alternative certified options.
The tool-free, quick-connect design reduces installation and maintenance time, lowering downtime during line changes. Durable materials improve service life in challenging environments, and silicone-free U-packing minimizes contamination risks, contributing to lower total cost of ownership in continuous production lines.
