This 1/4-28 fittings connection kit for 1/16" OD tubing is made of PEEK nuts and ETFE ferrules to ensure its high chemical resistance.
Sold by packs of 10x 1/4-28 to 1/16" OD PEEK nuts and 10x 1/16" OD ETFE ferrules. The nuts are available in standard or short lengths.
General
A set of PEEK fittings with ETFE ferrules to interface any 1/16" OD rigid tubing with 1/4-28 UNF threaded ports in your microfluidic system.
Flangeless fittings eliminate the need to flange tubing. This removable and reusable system provides several benefits:
-
Convenience: Flangeless fittings are easy to use. Just slip the nut and ferrule over the tubing and finger-tighten the assembly into your receiving port. In tests, it is shown that the ideal amount of torque to achieve expected part performance should be approximately 3–4 in-lbs (0.34–0.45 N·m).
-
Minimal downtime: Component replacement is quick, taking only a few seconds unlike the significant time required to flange tubing.
-
Cost-effectiveness: Repairing a flanged tubing assembly requires a costly flanging tool or the purchase of a complete replacement assembly, including a new length of tubing and a set of fittings. The Flangeless fittings system typically requires only one new ferrule at minimal cost when repairing a connection.
