Norgren E02471238 Pneufit E Swivel Fitting - 12mm G3/8

Push-in insertion with one movement reduces assembly time and training needs, delivering labor cost savings on every panel. The fast-connect action translates to shorter line changeovers and quicker provisioning of new production cells in robotics and packaging lines. This simplicity also lowers the skill threshold required for field technicians, reducing project risk and enabling faster commissioning. Designed to work with 12 mm O/D tubing, it supports consistent repeatability across multiple assemblies. 90° swivel elbow with a compact form enables routing in confined spaces, lowering installation complexity and enabling more flexible line layouts. The durable PA66 body and NBR seals resist common industrial fluids while keeping leak paths minimal in dynamic applications. Swivel operation also minimizes tubing torque, reducing wear on fittings and extending service life. The design remains compatible with the Pneufit E family, ensuring a consistent parts strategy across machines. Material choices support long service life in mixed air environments; body PA66 provides mechanical strength while silicone-free NBR seals minimize contamination risk. The design maintains performance across a wide operating range so original equipment manufacturers can specify a single part for diverse lines. The non-corrosive construction helps meet demanding industrial standards in oil-free and clean-room compatible environments. This choice also simplifies supplier qualification and inventory management. Operating range up to 20 bar and -20 to 80 °C ensures compatibility with standard compressed air systems; 12 mm OD tube and G3/8 thread enable straightforward integration with existing hoses and manifolds. The compact profile helps conserve panel space and enables closer pipe routing. This combination supports scalable automation without compromising reliability. The part’s design also facilitates quick replacement without tools in routine maintenance. Sealing and thread interface optimize leak prevention; O-ring performance plus screw-thread sealing reduces maintenance calls and warranty claims. Industry validation: the Pneufit E family aligns with common standards and is supported by full CAD models and a datasheet to verify fitment. The zinc- and copper-free construction also aligns with material policy requirements in sensitive manufacturing environments. Field technicians benefit from clear install-instructions and traceable part data. Practical field insights show quick-disconnect fittings like this one minimize downtime during tube replacements and module swaps; this contributes to higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) in high-volume plants. Availability through CAD and datasheet downloads accelerates design-in and procurement cycles. The compact, reliable design reduces spare parts inventory while delivering consistent pneumatic performance across multiple lines.
