Polyurethane (PU) Connectors
Introduction
Polyurethane connectors are components used to join or connect polyurethane tubing in fluid handling systems. These connectors play a crucial role in ensuring secure and leak-free connections, facilitating the efficient transfer of fluids in various industrial and commercial applications. Here's an overview of PU connectors, their features, applications, and considerations:
Key Features:
Material Compatibility:
Designed specifically for use with polyurethane tubing, ensuring a tight and secure fit.
Versatility:
Available in various types and configurations (e.g., straight connectors, elbow connectors,
tee connectors) to accommodate different tubing layouts and connection needs.
Quick Disconnect Options:
Some PU connectors feature quick disconnect mechanisms, allowing for rapid assembly and
disassembly of fluid lines for maintenance or reconfiguration.
Barbed Ends:
Typically equipped with barbed ends that grip the inner diameter of the tubing securely,
minimizing the risk of leakage.
Threaded or Push-to-Connect Designs:
Offered in threaded designs for secure connections with other fittings or push-to-connect
styles for tool-free assembly.
Applications:
Pneumatic Systems:
Used in pneumatic applications for connecting air lines and components in manufacturing and
automation systems.
Hydraulic Systems:
Employed in hydraulic systems for fluid power transmission in industrial machinery and
equipment.
Medical Devices:
Utilized in medical devices and equipment for fluid management, including patient monitoring
systems and diagnostic instruments.
Automotive Industry:
Commonly used in automotive manufacturing for fuel lines, air brake systems, and coolant
circulation.
