8/6 mm x G1/4'' Female Straight Push-on Fitting [2 Pieces]

6x8 mm x G 1/4 inch straight female push-on fitting with a brass nickel-plated body. Suitable for media temperatures from -15 °C to 70°C with a max working pressure of 15 bar. This coupling is suitable for plastic hoses having a 6x8 mm (outer diameter x inner diameter) with a simple push-on mounting design. The product images show a mounting diagram for mounting instructions. To mount, make sure the plastic hose is clean and cut straight. Slide the nut over the hose (1). Next, push the hose on the fitting (2). Then tighten the nut by hand or pliers (3). The hose is now connected leak-proof. Additional sealing material is needed to create a proper sealing between the male and female connection ports.

Pros:

• Easy assembly and disassembly with the push-on connection design.

Cons:

• Requires a clean cut hose with no burs for a leak free connection.
