What is a pneumatic fitting?

Pneumatic fittings provide the essential link between tubes, hoses and other components in a pneumatic system. Air fittings feature tighter seals and have lower pressure requirements than hydraulic fittings and are typically offered in various connector types.

How do I choose a pneumatic fitting?

The following should be considered in choosing the correct fitting type: working pressure. working temperature - increasing temperature will reduce the operating pressure of nylon and polyurethane tubing. working environment - both possible contaminants and ease of access for construction and maintenance.

What size are pneumatic fittings?

Most tubing used in pneumatic systems is less than 1” OD with common pneumatic main supply circuits in the 1/4” to 1/2” tube OD range, and pneumatic control circuits in the 1/8” to 3/8” tube OD range.

What does ARO stand for in air fittings?

One thick stripe and one thin stripe on body of fitting. Semi-Automatic. Semi-Universal Interchange Profile (ARO, Automotive, Industrial) not applicable. Three thin stripes on body of fitting.

Where are pneumatic fittings used?

Pneumatic fittings are parts used to connect sections of pipe, tube, and hose in pneumatic (pressurized gas) systems.

How do pneumatic quick connectors work?

Through the o-ring into the body of the fitting. This creates a watertight seal. And it it works by

What is a pneumatic coupling?

Simply put, a pneumatic coupling is a connector for air and gas transfer systems. For example, a common application connects and disconnects to a hose or pipe while under pressure.

What are pneumatic fitting generally made of?

Our pneumatic click fittings are completely made of plastic and have no metal content. Furthermore, the patented release mechanism is unique on the market. If you want to install tubing quickly and easily with one hand, then the click fitting is a good choice.

How are fittings measured?

Measure the Outside Diameter (OD) of your pipe or pipe fitting:

Wrap a string around the pipe.
Mark the point where the string touches together.
Use a ruler or measuring tape to find the length between the tip of the string and the mark you made (circumference)
Divide the circumference by 3.14159.

How do you choose pneumatic tubing?

Your choice of tubing or hose will mainly be influenced by the type of air supply you use and its application. Hose or tubing size is influenced by the flow requirements. Specifications for tubing are usually provided by the outer diameter and wall thickness, while those for hose tend to use inner diameter.

What is the proper length for hoses used to connect pneumatic components?

Hose Length The standard lengths of air pipes are generally 50 feet and 100 feet. It is generally believed that a 100 foot long hose is more convenient during use. Because it can extend farther. But in some specific cases, a 50-foot hose may be a better choice.

How do I know what size air fit I have?

Using a ruler or vernier, measure across the outside diameter of a male or hose tailpiece thread or measure the inside diameter of a female thread. If the thread measures 0.5" it is not a 1/2" BSP thread.

What threads are used for air fittings?

Thread sizes are typically 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" or 3/4" pipe thread. A fitting that has female pipe threads (FPT) can only mate to something with male pipe threads (MPT) that are of the same pipe thread size. Nominal - the inner diameter size that the compressed air passes through.

What is the difference between NPT and MPT?

Definition of Pipe Thread Acronyms
NPT	National Pipe Thread (tapered)
FPT	Female Pipe Thread (interchangeable with NPT)
FIP	Female Iron Pipe (interchangeable with NPT)
MPT	Male Pipe Thread (interchangeable with NPT)

What are the two types of air couplings?

There are two main types of air compressor couplers : Automotive and Industrial. The chart below shows how to identify which connector style you have. As you can see, Industrial style couplers have two striped going across the fitting, whereas the automotive style only has one.

What type of air fitting does ARB use?

Fittings are zinc nickel alloy electroplat- ed steel for corrosion resistance and strength. Use this to deliver air from your ARB compressor throughout your vehicle. 1⁄4 inch 2.0m long high flow stainless steel braided PTFE hose. Female JIC-04 37° flare fitting on each end.

What is the most common air compressor fittings?

The most common size fitting is ¼ inch. This is true for both ¼ and 3/8 inch air hose. Most 3/8 air hose comes with ¼ inch ends on it, thus most use a ¼ inch air fitting. Another important thing to consider when choosing the right size fitting is what size of thread is your air tool or air compressor.

What is the function of pneumatic valve?

In the first context, a pneumatic valve is a device that is used to control or modulate the flow of air (or another inert gas) in a pneumatic system. They do so by controlling the air or gas at the source, regulating its passage as needed into tubing, pipes, or devices in an automated pneumatic system.

Can air fittings be used for water?

Push-in fittings are used in all types of compressed air systems, but are most commonly used in applications having pneumatic cylinders, tools, and equipment. They can be used for water applications, but extra measures have to be taken (controlled surge pressure, water compatibility, insert ring, etc.)
