Thanks to the use of these new materials, we've been able to realise very light and safety fittings. The use of thechnopolymeric fittings ensures to avoid dangerous eletrical phenomena and in case of overpressure there won't be any formation of splints. This is thanks to the materials features, they are ductile and not conductive. The washer, made in stainless steel, ensures the perfect tube clamping with every kinds of materials without damage the surface. The connection between the tube and the fitting ensures a total tightness even in severe conditions such as impact and vibrations. The particular geometric shape of the seal ensures the perfect tightness even with vacuum. All of threads from this range (also the M3), have been equipped with tightening parts which allow the direct assembly of the fittings, reducing the installation time. All the straight fittings, with "short" and parallel threads, can be assembled with Allen wrench and it is possible to use them in reduced spaces. The "short" taper thread has been designed to offer the following advantages to the users: - reduced overall lenght - smaller hex dimension compared to the parallel threads - to allow the assembly with different female threads both taper as well as parallel: - tapered NPT - NPTF - parallel ISO 7 - BSPP - tapered ISO 7 - BSPT PT - parallel ISO 228 - BSP - PF - to ensure the right tightening also with surfaces not perfectly flat, without spot-facing, concave, convex and with different kinds of chamfers or radius.

The opening and closing functions are made by hand, acting on the control spindle of the ball with the handle, or operated with a spanner or screwdriver. The main characteristics of these valves are the different versions and the reduced dimensions, which have been carefully studied.

Push-on Fittings The "Push-on fittings" of the 1000 series have been studied into their dimensional structure (thickness and dimensions) as well as their main characteristic (the fitting cone with its unique barb shape) in order to satisfy the requirements of the field of work, that is pneumatic plant. The compression cone with its unique barb shape ensures a good grip on the tube even if the nut is tightened by hand. In this range of remarkable interest are the fittings called "Swivel", they satisfy the most varied and complicated assembly requirements as it is possible to turn the bodies at 360 degrees compared to the bases. Temperatures and Pressures The working pressures and working temperatures depend on which type of tube is used, for this reason, the values must be determined in accordance with the tube's features. For the "swivel" fittings, the values are: Minimum pressure: 0,99 bar (-0.099 MPa) Maximum pressure: 15 bar (1.5 MPa) Minimum Temperature: -20° C Maximum temperature: +80° C Fittings are available in the following size: Tubes: from 4/2,7 up to 15/12,5; Thread: of 1/8 to 1/2.
