IMI Norgren C0B710438 Pneufit C Push-in Fitting - G3/8 4mm

Tool-free push-in design accelerates installation in automated lines by removing the need for wrenches or compression tooling, shortening commissioning time and enabling rapid reconfigurations. This design reduces training requirements for new technicians and minimizes on-site labor when lines are expanded or rerouted, delivering tangible uptime gains in high-mix manufacturing environments. The cross-shaped four-port Pneufit C tee enables compact manifold routing, letting engineers consolidate branches and reduce part counts without sacrificing flow performance or diagnostic access. This advantageous geometry simplifies design reviews, speeds iteration cycles in automation projects, and lowers total installed costs when adding secondary lines for packaging, robotics, or conveying systems. A releasable stainless-steel grab-ring securely grips nylon or polyurethane tubes (85 or 95 durometer) and allows tool-free disengagement for quick maintenance or tubing swaps, even after installation in confined spaces. This capability is especially valuable in spare-parts heavy environments, where easy removal minimizes downtime during preventive maintenance and component replacements. Nickel-plated brass components provide robust corrosion resistance and contamination protection, extending service life in humid plants or outdoor enclosures while maintaining appearance and performance. Coupled with silicone-free U-packing, the assembly delivers immediate, leak-free sealing and avoids silicone residue entering the air line, supporting clean operation in regulated pneumatic circuits. Operating over a wide -20 to 60 °C range, the fitting maintains reliable performance in cold milling zones, heated presses, and washdown environments, reducing seal-related failures and warranty claims. This broad temperature tolerance also enables consistent interchangeability across product families and supplier ecosystems. Efficient integration is aided by precise dimensions and material choices: 62 mm length, 54.5 mm width, 24 mm height, and a compact 0.1 kg weight that fit tight spaces on small manifolds. With G3/8 threading and a 4 mm O/D tube, it connects directly to standard pneumatic circuits, minimizing the need for adapters and minimizing leak paths.
