Norgren C02881028 Pneufit C - G1/4 Swivel Y Fitting
Part Number: C02881028
Quick Summary
Norgren Pneufit C C02881028 push-in fitting provides quick, tool-free connections for compressed air lines in automation equipment. Many engineers struggle with leaks, misalignment, and downtime when tubing assemblies are slow or incompatible with existing manifolds. Designed with CE-compliant practices in mind and compatibility for IP-rated environments, the swivel Y adaptor fits safety-conscious installations in modern factories. Its U-packing seals are silicone-free, reducing contamination risk while delivering immediate sealing, and the stainless-steel grab-ring ensures reliable grip for nylon or polyurethane tubes. In addition, the compact form factor and standard G1/4 port support easy retrofits and scalable use across multiple lines, saving time and material costs. This translates to measurable uptime gains and lower total cost of ownership for pneumatic systems.

Feature: Tool-free push-in design with a releasable stainless-steel grab-ring. Business Impact: Speeds up assembly and reduces tool-induced downtime, improving overall equipment effectiveness (OEE). Application: Ideal for assembly lines and field retrofits where fast, repeatable connections are essential. Feature: Releasable grab-ring tailored for 85 or 95 durometer nylon or polyurethane tubing. Business Impact: Enables quick removal for maintenance or rework without damage to tubing or fittings. Application: Used in maintenance shops and high-changeover environments. Feature: Nickel-plated brass body with corrosion and contamination resistance; silicone-free U-packing. Business Impact: Prolonged service life in challenging environments and lower contamination risk, supporting compliance in sensitive processes. Application: Food-grade or clean-in-place contexts where seal purity matters. Feature: Silicone-free sealing provides immediate, reliable seal on initial assembly. Business Impact: Reduces start-up leaks and rework, cutting per-unit installation costs. Application: Critical pneumatic circuits in robotics and packaging lines. Feature: 10 mm O/D tubing, G1/4 port, and compact dimensions (51.5 mm length, 35.2 mm width, 19 mm height). Business Impact: Facilitates tight panel layouts and straightforward retrofits in space-constrained machinery. Application: Control panels, manifolds, and compact machines. Feature: Additional compatibility with PA2 tubing options (PA2-0010025C and PA2-0010100). Business Impact: Broadens installation flexibility and reduces inventory fragmentation. Application: System upgrades and scalable pneumatic networks.

FAQs
The connector is designed for 10 mm outside diameter tubing, compatible with nylon or polyurethane tubes (85–95 durometer). It uses a G1/4 port and G1/4 threading, enabling straightforward integration into standard compressed-air manifolds and control panels without adapters or rework.
The tool-free push-in mechanism eliminates manual clamp and crimp steps, dramatically reducing assembly time. The stainless-steel grab-ring ensures secure engagement with tubing, while the silicone-free U-packing provides immediate seals. Together, these features shorten setup time, minimize leaks, and improve line uptime during changeovers and reconfigurations.
The Pneufit C family is designed with CE-compliant principles and compatibility with environments that require robust protection. While specific IP-rating depends on the overall enclosure design, this adaptor’s corrosion-resistant materials and silicone-free seals support reliable operation in many IP-rated cabinet or enclosure assemblies when used as part of a complete system.
Routinely inspect the grab-ring grip and seal integrity during preventive maintenance. Use compatible PA2 tubing (PA2-0010025C or PA2-0010100) for best fit and performance, and replace silicone-free U-packing if you observe seal degradation. Leveraging tool-free connections also reduces maintenance time and exposure to contamination during replacements.
Opt for standard 10 mm O/D tubing with PA2-0010025C or PA2-0010100 lengths to support diverse line needs. The tool-free, fast-install design lowers changeover time, while corrosion-resistant bodies and silicone-free seals reduce leakage and contamination. The result is lower downtime, easier upgrades, and a favorable return on investment for scalable pneumatic networks.
