Coupling

• non-spill, high flow
• withstands aggressive chemicals

CQN06 series quick disconnect couplings allow repeated disconnection of critical fluid lines with virtually no spillage or air inclusion upon reconnect, even under pressure. System size can be reduced with fewer components, metallic and particle contaminants are virtually eliminated, downtime is minimized and operator safety is enhanced. The non-spill, metal- and spring-free flow path maximizes capacity while minimizing footprint. Ultrapure virgin PTFE and fluoropolymer materials and a variety of seal options suit these connectors for all wet process chemicals found in semiconductor, pharmaceutical and laboratory applications. The couplings handle flows up to 16 gpm in a pressure range of 0 to 80 psig and a temperature range of 0° to 150°F. Both panel-mount and in-line configurations are available with integral standard Flaretek flare terminations. Colder Products, St Paul, MN.   www.rsleads.com/210df-219

Halogen-free hose
The HT-162 fire-retardant hose features halogen-free, wire-reinforced thermoplastic construction and complies with ASTM E-162 and ASTM E-662 flame and smoke requirements for use in enclosed environments. Providing 4:1 compressibility, this easy-to-install flexible hose is designed for vacuum and pressure applications to 24 in.Hg and 25 psi, depending upon size. Hi-Tech Hose Inc, Georgetown, MA.   www.rsleads.com/210df-220

Fluoroplastic tubing
This fluoroplastic tubing can be manufactured from PTFE, FEP, PFA, ETFE, ECTFE, MFA, THV, Radiopaque, PEEK, Ultem PEI and conductive materials. Available with various cuffed and flanged ends to meet commercial and military specifications, ¼- to 4-in. ID sizes are listed, and metric sizes are offered also. Cutting, etching, scoring and wire-wrapping services are available. TexLoc Ltd, Fort Worth, TX.   www.rsleads.com/210df-221

Connectors
The Hard-Line series of connectors and tees features a barb designed for use with harder durometer tubing, such as polyethylene 55 Shore D and polypropylene 80 durometer. The barb itself has a sharp sealing point that is slightly larger than the fitting’s shaft to eliminate the need for suck-down around the trailing edge of the barb. The fittings are tested to 200 psi without requiring hose clamps. Ark-Plas Products Inc, Flippin, AR.   www.rsleads.com/210df-222

Luer panel mounts
This company has expanded its luer panel mount line with connectors to accommodate tubing IDs from 1/16- to 1/8-in. and are available with ¼-28 UNF or 10-32 UNF threads. They are available in thru-flow and reducers are intended for panel thicknesses of 1/16- to 1/8-in. The ¼-28 UNF series may be color-coded with the company’s LNS locknut, CCR and CCLR color-coded rings. Value Plastics Inc, Fort Collins, CO.   www.rsleads.com/210df-223

Cam-operated couplings
Manufactured for high-impact strength at much lighter weight than their metal counterparts, these cam-operated couplings prevent threads from seizing on mating threads. The nylon (Nuglass) or polypropylene (Propoglass) couplings are electrically non-conductive, resistant to most hydrocarbons, solvents, mild acids and agricultural chemicals, and are made to MIL-C-27487 dimensions. NewAge Industries, Southampton, PA.   www.rsleads.com/210df-224

Gripper fittings
Designed for connecting laboratory tubing, these gripper fittings offer zero dead volume at pressures up to 1000 psi. They can be hand tightened without any special tools and will not compress or twist tubing if over tightened. A chemically inert PTFE washer is press-fitted into a 316 stainless steel housing, ensuring a leak-free connections with minimum disturbance to the fluid path. Omnifit, Rockville Centre, NY.   www.rsleads.com/210df-225

Silicone hose labels
CLEAR-Mark platinum-cured silicone hose labels are vulcanized to the hose, meeting FDA recommendations for identification and preventative maintenance programs. Offered in seven colors, with or without printing, these permanent labels can be labeled and numbered to provide complete tracability and sterilization. Sizes for hoses from ½- to 2-in. ID are available. Integra Companies Inc, Devens, MA.   www.rsleads.com/210df-226

Snap bushings
The SB series of snap bushings is molded with locking fingers to snap easily into raw-edge holes to create smooth, neat insulated holes. The bushings can withstand a push-back force up to 35 lbs. Available in 16 sizes for mounting from 0.312- to 2.5-in. hole dia., they are made of Nylon 6 material for strength and flexibility. The series is offered in standard black, but is available in white or other colors. Niagara Plastics Co, Erie, PA.   www.rsleads.com/210df-227

Overbraided hose
Designed for pure fluid applications, APSOF stainless steel overbraided PTFE hose provides long flexural life, low permeability, non-flammability and the lowest coefficient of friction of any solid material, all at higher pressures than unreinforced hose. Working pressures range from 1000 to 3375 psi, depending on hose dia. Operating temperature is between -65° and 450°F. AdvantaPure, Southampton, PA.   www.rsleads.com/210df-228

Tubing system
SYGEF PVDF HP Flex tubing system offers a more economical solution for conveying ultrapure water and chemicals than PFA and FEP resin based systems. Available in a range of tube and fitting sizes from ¼- to 1-in., the system can handle pressures of 150 psi at high temperatures associated with hot UPW systems. The PVDF resin provides a flexible material suited for reduced spaces. George Fischer Inc, Tustin, CA.   www.rsleads.com/210df-229

Clamp
The Normaclamp GBS M offers triple the clamping force of the company’s standard welded clamp and twice the destruction torque at a reduced cost. This series is constructed from lightweight AlZn with rounded edges to minimize hose abrasion. Stainless steel versions will be available soon. No Chromium VI is used in the clamp or the hex bolt, which can be tightened or removed without special tools. Norma Products Inc, Wixom, MI.   www.rsleads.com/210df-230
