Norgren D242D052Y Pneufit D Acetal Fitting - NSF 51/61 Certified
Part Number: D242D052Y
Quick Summary
Pneufit D Acetal push-in fittings are a reliable solution for secure, leak-tight connections in compressed air and liquids. Engineers often battle tubing compatibility and contamination during rapid assembly, which these fittings help mitigate with a robust grab-ring and standardized 5/16" tubing. They carry FDA-approved acetal material and certifications including NSF 51/61 and MOCA readiness, plus EC 1935/2004 compliance, making them suitable for demanding food, beverage, and medical equipment environments. With straight female adaptors and 7/16-20 UNF threads, the Pneufit D range simplifies sourcing and installation while delivering consistent performance across critical projects. This combination enables faster line support, improved traceability, and reduced risk in regulated processes.

FAQs
To install, slide the tubing into the push-in connector until seated, ensure the tube diameter matches 5/16", release the grip-ring by pulling gently on the tube, and thread the adaptor into the mating port using a suitable 7/16-20 UNF wrench. Verify the seal with a visual check for proper seating and perform a leak test after installation.
D242D052Y operates from −20 to 98 °C (−4 to 208 °F) and supports pressures from −0.9 to 20 bar (−14.5 to 290 psi). This broad range allows use across diverse process fluids and compressed air systems without substituting parts.
Yes. The body is made from FDA-approved acetal with EPDM seals, and the assembly is NSF 51/61 certified and MOCA compliant, plus EC 1935/2004 aligned. This makes it well-suited for food contact environments, water systems, and analytical or medical devices requiring regulatory compliance.
The fitting carries NSF 51/61 certification, FDA-approved acetal material, MOCA certification, and EC 1935/2004 compliance. These certifications demonstrate suitability for food contact, low-moisture emission, and regulatory acceptance in regulated industries, simplifying supplier qualification and audit readiness.
ROI is realized through faster assembly, reduced leak risk, and easier maintenance. The push-in design minimizes assembly time, while NSF/ FDA-compliant materials lower contamination concerns, and standardized threads (7/16-20 UNF) simplify sourcing and inventory management across multiple lines.
