Description
Designed to create a 90° connection between imperial tube and female NPTF threaded equipment. It is widely used in pub cellars and bar installations where imported or US specification components require NPTF connections.
The swivel design allows the threaded end to rotate independently of the push-fit tube connection. This enables accurate alignment with pumps, regulators, coolers, or dispensing systems without twisting the beer or gas lines. The result is a cleaner installation, reduced strain on the tubing, and improved long-term reliability.
Manufactured from grey acetal copolymer with a nitrile O-ring, the fitting provides an airtight connection with strong flow characteristics. It is suitable for food grade liquids, potable water and inert gases. In accordance with the British Beer and Pub Association Code of Practice, it can be used on N2, CO2 and mixed gas dispense lines, as well as air, pneumatic and vacuum systems.
The push-fit mechanism delivers an instant leak tight seal without tools or sealing agents. The secure collet design prevents accidental disconnection while holding the tube firmly without deforming it or restricting internal bore. Fully demountable on the tube side, it supports fast servicing and straightforward system modifications in busy commercial environments.
