IMI Norgren C0B711248 Pneufit C Push-in Fitting - G1/2, 12mm
Part Number: C0B711248
Quick Summary
Pneufit C push-in fitting is a fast, tool-free connection for compressed air lines in automation equipment. Engineers often struggle with tool-dependent assemblies that slow line upgrades and can introduce leaks in tight spaces. In the pneumatic industry, CE conformity, IP ratings, and SIL safety considerations are common validation touchpoints to ensure reliability in harsh environments. This design emphasizes quick, secure connections with a silicone-free U-packing and corrosion-resistant components, delivering significant efficiency gains. The solution also aligns with procurement goals by simplifying installation and extending service life, while maintaining clean air lines and robust performance across typical industrial applications.

Tool-free assembly saves time during installation and reduces human error, directly cutting commissioning costs and downtime on automation lines. This feature translates into faster line ramp-ups and easier maintenance in busy panel environments where space is at a premium. The Pneufit C cross-tee design supports 12 mm O/D tubes with a G1/2 thread, enabling flexible routing in compact assemblies and reducing the need for additional adapters. A releasable stainless-steel grab-ring ensures secure, reusable connections for nylon or polyurethane tubing, improving line reliability in high-vibration environments and during tube replacement cycles. Nickel-plated brass bodies provide corrosion and contamination resistance, extending service life in industrial settings and washdown areas where humidity or cleaning agents are present. Silicone-free NBR seals prevent air-system contamination, preserving air quality for sensitive downstream components and aligning with strict manufacturing cleanliness standards. The PBT body offers a lightweight yet sturdy construction, balancing durability with ease of handling during field installs. Operating from −20 to 60 °C, this fitting suits a wide operating envelope found in automotive, packaging, and process automation applications, delivering consistent performance without compromise. Overall, Pneufit C delivers quick, reliable connections with industry-standard sizing, supporting faster changeovers and reduced maintenance costs across multiple lines and machines.

FAQs
The Pneufit C is designed for tool-free installation. Simply insert the 12 mm OD nylon or polyurethane tube into the push-in port until it seats with a positive click. Ensure the tube length is appropriate, verify the seating is complete, then gently tug to confirm a secure fit. For disassembly, depress the release mechanism and pull the tube free. This minimizes downtime during panel updates and field changes.
Key specs include a cross-shaped tee with G1/2 threads, 12 mm O/D tubing, and a silicone-free NBR seal. Operating temperature ranges from −20 to 60 °C, suitable for most standard industrial environments. The body is plastic PBT with nickel-plated brass components for corrosion resistance, ensuring stable performance and low contamination risk in compressed air lines.
Yes. The stainless-steel grab-ring provides a secure grip on tubes, while the nickel-plated brass components resist corrosion. The silicone-free NBR seals reduce the risk of silicone contamination in the air stream, which is especially important in washdown or high-vibration settings where connections must remain reliable over time.
Industrial pneumatic fittings typically align with CE conformity and relevant environmental or safety standards. For critical safety applications, SIL considerations may apply. Always verify your specific regulatory requirements in your region and confirm with the supplier that the individual part meets the applicable CE and industry standards for your installation.
The tool-free install reduces commissioning time and training needs, while the robust materials extend service life in demanding environments. The silicone-free seals help maintain air purity, reducing downstream contamination risks. Collectively, these factors lower maintenance labor, minimize unplanned downtime, and improve overall equipment uptime and throughput on packaging, automation, and process lines.
