Norgren C02681248 Pneufit C Push-in Fitting - 12mm G1/2
Part Number: C02681248
Quick Summary
Pneufit C push-in fittings connect 12 mm tubing quickly in compressed air systems for automation equipment. The tool-free, no-tools assembly reduces field downtime and minimizes leak risk during installation and maintenance. This family aligns with CE quality expectations and uses corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass components along with silicone-free U-packing for reliable performance. For OEMs and service teams, the compact body and standard 12 mm porting enable seamless integration with PA2 tubing options, delivering consistent seals in tight spaces and long service life, while supporting quick field replacement when needed. The combination of a PBT body and silicone-free seals helps maintain air purity in precision tooling and automation lines, offering predictable, repeatable performance across the plant.

Feature: Tool-free Pneufit C operation allows fast, tool-less connections, reducing assembly time and minimising human error. Business Impact: Shorter setup times on line startups and maintenance windows translate into higher throughput and lower labor costs. Application: Automation panels, robotic grippers, and packaging lines where quick, reliable pneumatic connections are essential. Feature: Releasable stainless-steel grab-ring grips nylon or polyurethane tubing (85 or 95 durometer) for secure hold and easy release. Business Impact: Faster disassembly for maintenance and tube replacements without special tools. Application: Field servicing in confined spaces or modular automation cells where tube routing changes are common. Feature: Nickel-plated brass components provide corrosion and contamination resistance with extended life. Business Impact: Longer service intervals, reduced part counts, and lower total cost of ownership in harsh industrial environments. Application: Dirty, humid or outdoor factory floors where pneumatic lines are exposed to the elements. Feature: Silicone-free U-packing enables immediate quality sealing without silicone contamination. Business Impact: Maintains air purity, reduces downstream contamination risk, and supports safer, cleaner pneumatic systems. Application: Precision tooling and clean-room adjacent automation where contaminant control matters. Feature: Compact, lightweight body (PBT) with 12 mm O/D tube and G1/2 thread (Tee shape) supports flexible installation. Business Impact: Simplified routing in compact cabinets and retrofits, enabling versatile system design. Application: OEM equipment enclosures and retrofit projects with standard PA2 tubing options. Feature: Compatible with PA2-0012025C and PA2-0012100 tubing (12 mm/9 mm) for seamless system integration. Business Impact: Reduces inventory complexity and ensures compatible tube sizing across installations. Application: System expansions and maintenance where tubing stock is standardized.

FAQs
The Pneufit C uses a tool-free push-in action. Align the 12 mm O/D tubing with the fitting, insert firmly until the tube seats against the internal stop, and ensure the silicone-free U-packing seals properly. For disassembly, pull back on the release mechanism and withdraw the tube. This design minimizes installation errors and reduces downtime during routine maintenance.
This fitting operates from -20 to 60 °C and supports an operating pressure range of 0 to 10 bar (0 to 145 psi). These ranges suit most standard industrial pneumatic circuits, including automation lines and tooling cells, while maintaining reliable seal integrity with silicone-free NBR packing.
Yes. It is compatible with PA2-0012025C and PA2-0012100 tubing, which are natural polyamide tubes offered in 12 mm outer diameter with 9 mm alternative. This compatibility simplifies inventory and supports flexible routing in installations that require 12/9 mm tube sizing.
The body is a Plastic PBT, with nickel-plated brass components, and seals use NBR that is silicone-free. Silicone-free seals prevent contamination in clean environments and avoid silicone migration into the pneumatic circuit, which is especially important for precision tooling and cleanliness-critical applications.
Tool-free assembly and disassembly reduce maintenance downtime, while the stainless grab-ring provides secure, repeatable tube retention. Corrosion-resistant construction and silicone-free seals extend service life and reduce replacement frequency, delivering lower total cost of ownership across automation plants.
