The Selection Criteria for Push-On Fittings to be Used in Pneumatic Environments
April 2, 2018Push-on fittings, also called rapid screw fittings, are widely used in pneumatic industries. These are best suited to work with soft tubings in various pneumatic systems.
The grip of these fittings is strong and steady. Their swivel part prevents twining of the pipe, making them steadier than other fittings.
Common applications of push-on fittings
These fittings are designed to be part of a number of industrial applications and processes:
- Pneumatic control environments and systems
- Air supply flow as part of sophisticated pneumatic machines
- Precision components in various automatic devices
Features of push-on fittings
Some of the general features of push-on fittings that make them popular in pneumatic industries include:
- These fittings can be quickly installed in almost any setting, without requiring special tools or even clamps
- They can be assembled in seconds, as the lack of tools or special instruments make the process easier
- These fittings can be reused by replacing the hose. Again, it can be achieved without using any special tool
- Maintenance is easier as well as faster
- Because of their steady grasp, the fittings can be used high pressure and temperature environment
- Special shapes, such as straight, elbow or tee shaped fittings are available for use in different applications
