Industrial Applications

1. Precision Cleanroom Pneumatic Assembly

Uses the fitting's ISO Class 4 cleanroom rating and VDMA24364 zone III LABS/PWIS conformity to securely route compressed air to pneumatic grippers and slide tables in battery cell production environments where trace contaminants or paint-wetting impairment substances must be strictly avoided [2.1.2].

Problem Solved

Prevents contamination of battery components and electrodes from outgassing or particulate emissions from pneumatic fittings, ensuring high-yield production of defect-free lithium-ion cells.

2. Secondary Packaging Machine Air Distribution

Connects standard 10mm OD polyurethane (PUN) tubing to central manifold ports featuring female R3/8 threads, operating up to 8 bar to drive high-speed pneumatic actuators, carton folders, and reject gates.

Problem Solved

Eliminates manual threading delays and provides quick-connect maintenance capabilities via the push-pull POM release ring, dramatically reducing machine downtime during routine tube replacements.

3. Low-Corrosion Pneumatic Distribution

Implements the straight fitting in non-corrosive, low-stress industrial assembly settings (CRC 1) to direct lubricated or unlubricated compressed air (ISO 8573-1:2010 [7:4:4]) to precise pneumatic actuators and vacuum ejectors.

Problem Solved

Prevents localized air pressure drops and micro-leaks thanks to the pre-applied PTFE coating on the R3/8 thread and tight gripping of the stainless steel tube claw on 10mm OD tubing.
