Norgren C02881228 Pneufit C Swivel Y Fitting - G1/4
Part Number: C02881228
Quick Summary
Pneufit C Push-In Fitting is a tool-free adaptor that enables fast, secure 12 mm tube connections to G1/4 ports in automated pneumatic lines. In the field, engineers often contend with time-consuming tool assemblies, leak-prone fittings, and inconsistent seal performance during line changes. While certification details vary by configuration, typical industry standards include CE compliance and SIL-related safety architectures, with IP-rated options available for harsh environments. Particularly in packaging, automation, and handling lines, this adaptor delivers predictable performance and reduces maintenance costs. That translates to faster assembly, fewer errors, and a more reliable supply chain with a compact footprint. This makes it well suited for high-mix, low-changeover environments where uptime matters.

FAQs
The C02881228 supports 12 mm outer-diameter tubing with G1/4 ports. It uses a swivel Y configuration for versatile branching, and the tube is secured by a stainless-steel grab-ring for reliable retention. This makes tube routing simpler in panel installations and compact pneumatic manifolds.
Tool-free Push-In design eliminates screwdriver and witting steps, reducing installation time and human error. This translates to faster line changes, easier reconfiguration for high-mix production, and lower labor costs during setup and maintenance while preserving leak-free seals.
Yes. Operating temperature ranges from -20 to 60 °C (-4 to 140 °F), and the nickel-plated brass body plus stainless-steel grab-ring deliver corrosion resistance and robust performance in challenging plant environments. Silicone-free U-packing also minimizes contamination risks in sensitive applications.
Best suited for automation panels, robotics cells, packaging lines, and general pneumatic distribution. Its compact Y-configuration supports space-constrained manifolds, while its 12 mm tubing compatibility and G1/4 threading streamline integration across multiple lines.
