Micron engineering corporation supplies tube quick connect couplers designed for easy installation on the end of straight tubing. The coupler can be slided on to the end of straight tubing until seated and pushed down on the mechanical lever to make a positive seal.
A cam-locking device grips properly without damage to steel, copper, brass or any metal tubing. This can be removed from the tube for operator safety and blow off or loss of seal connection by accidental bumping is eliminated.
When used for vacuum and castor oil, it is necessary to select proper material of construction of the couplings, pipe gripping by a collet chuck does not need any welding and the couplers can be used in charging, evacuating and leak testing applications.
The surface of the pipe ensures excellent sealing and vacuum resistance since it is re-enforced with a double seal construction. Different varieties of fittings can be plugged into the pipe but the size of the pipe remains the same. The fluid flow is bi-directional, that is in out.
