PUSH CONNECT FITTINGS, STRAIGHT, D.O.T.Tubing size for a fitting refers to the outside diameter, (O.D.) measurement of the nylon tubing. Push-to-Connect fittings are also called P2C or Push-In Fittings. Among the many advantages of a Push-To-Connect fitting over conventional Compression fittings are the following:
DOT Push-to-Connect Fittings are constructed with an all brass captive eyelet which allows for maximum flow. Push to Connect fittings feature an internal O-Ring manufactured from Buna-N which grips the installed tubing and holds it in place. The brass captive eyelet with extended length is floating and has a machined top end radius for easy installation of tubing. All male threads have a pre-applied Teflon based pipe sealant to provide for easy assembly and a leak proof seal. They have a working temperature range from -40° to 200° F and a working pressure range from vacuum to 150 PSI. They meet D.O.T. FMVSS 571.106 SAE J1131 standard for air brake systems. |
