Faher Fittings and Fit Couplings for the Industrial Sector

The needs that may arise in the industrial sector are so varied that it is difficult to provide all kinds of tools and equipment. However, Faher manufactures such a variety of solutions that it can be adapted to the highest demands. On this occasion, we are going to focus on the fittings and fit couplings used in pneumatic applications.

Technopolymer instant fittings

These types of fittings are often used in pneumatics and vacuum applications. The material with which they are made, fiberglass technopolymer, is light and resistant. For its correct use, it is advisable to follow a series of protocols:

Warnings for correct use

Always use the fitting with compressed air, avoiding another series of different fluids.
Prevent, during use, possible increases in pressure, vibrations, rotations and strangulation of the pipe. The goal is to prevent possible leaks that may compromise its functionality.
Avoid using the fitting in environments where welding sparks are present.
Introduce the pipe clean of impurities and dirt.
Do not use the fitting directly exposed to fluids such as coolants, lubricants or refrigerant oils.

Instructions for use for connecting the tube to the fitting

Make sure that the working pressure is zero before connecting the tube to the fitting.
Avoid, during use, imperfections or deformations on the surface of the tube, as leaks or unexpected disconnections may occur.
Use a pipe cutter to cut the pipe at 90 degrees.
Insert the pipe as far as it will go into the fitting and pull the pipe backwards with a sharp blow. In this way, an optimal fastening to the fitting is ensured.
To disconnect the tube, one hand must press the push ring all the way, and with the other hand, pull the tube back.
For subsequent reuse, always cut the used part of the tube that held the fitting, avoiding imperfections or deformations on its surface.

Safety fit couplings

These types of couplings allow automatic and safe connection and disconnection, all thanks to a decompression mechanism that guarantees uncoupling without the risk of whiplash. Its body is light and resistant to abrasion, shock, crushing and vibration.

The coupling and connector are attached. If we want to disconnect, we only have to move the body of the plug so that the connector moves back and releases the valve that closes.

The first step would consist of moving downwards, which is what would allow the decompression of the network at the exit of the circuit. In the second step, the movement would be done upwards to safely release the connector.
