Nickel-Plated Brass Push-In Fittings
BSP/Metric Series 6000
Sprint®
fittings
are designed to
allow assembly with all female thread
forms, BSP, GAS, “G” and “R” types.
The new model is interchangeable
with tapered thread fittings, both
BSPT and BSPP. The special
sealing method has a locking effect
similar to that of other tapered
threads. The sealing ring is made
of PTFE (Teflon®), is not subject to
wear, and can be used repeatedly.
Nylon, aluminum and washers of
other materials can be replaced,
eliminating the need for a “spot face”
and thus reducing the fitting size.
Sealing is achieved on inclined,
concave and convex surfaces.
Spot-Face O-Ring fittings
are
available in 32 different models. The
sealing ring (O-ring) can be easily
replaced if it is damaged or should
the rubber compound from which it is
made wear with time.
Micro fittings
are constructed in 14
different models. The sealing ring
(O-Ring) can be easily replaced if
it is damaged or should the rubber
compound from which it is made
wear with time.
Connection and disconnection of the
tube can be repeated several times
and can be performed using one
hand and without the use of tools.
