Piping Equipment

The fittings and tubing are available in inch and metric sizes, in numerous configurations and manufactured in various materials to withstand a wide range of environments from standard factory spaces to aggressive high heat welding and corrosive wash down spaces.

Fittings and Flow Control

KQ2, One
Touch Fittings

KQ2 one-touch, metric and inch size fittings are available in a wide variety of sizes, body styles and thread types. The use of a special profile seal allows the KQ2 to be used for a wide range of pressures from a low vacuum up to a pressure of 1MPa. The KQ2 release collar releases both the chuck and collet to provide a low disconnection force for easy removal of the tubing.

KQB2, Metal One
Touch Fittings

Compact and lightweight, the KQB2 one-touch fitting uses electroless nickel plated brass components as standard specification. Its maximum operating temperature is 150° C. KQB2 fittings can be used with fluid, and in environments having a large temperature change. Configuration variations have been improved to 17 models. Applicable tube sizes are Ø3.2 to Ø16 and 1/8" to 1/2". Series KQB2 is available with M, R, Rc, UNF, NPT or G connection threads.

KF, Insert
Fittings

KF insert fittings are suitable for use with nylon, soft nylon and polyurethane types of tubing. The insert mechanism provides reliable retaining force on both sides of the tube (inside and outside). The KF series can used for a wide range of pressures from vacuum up to a pressure of 1.0MPa.

H,DL,L,LL,
Self-align Fitting

Self align fittings series H, DL, L, LL has ten styles and five tube O.D's providing a wide range of fittings that will fit any application. Flared ridge ferrule prevents accidental loss of ferrule when inserting tubing into the fitting body. Hardened ridge ferrule prevents breakage of ferrule when tightening nut. Flared I.D. provides low flow resistance inside the fitting. The tube holding mechanism gives the strong feeling when inserting tube, and prevents tube from sliding when screwing in the tube.

KK, Quick
Couplers

S coupler series KK employs a unique connection method. A slim body design and large effective area are achieved with a construction that does not use steel balls or valve springs and therefore does not restrict the flow path. Together with a reduction of the body size, pressing parts and resin parts are used to achieve an overall weight reduction.

KQG2, Stainless One
Touch Fittings

Series KQG2 is a one-touch fitting made of all stainless steel SUS316, except seal parts. The series is suitable for use with steam and is grease-free. Applicable tubing includes FEP, PFA, nylon, soft nylon, polyurethane and polyolefin. The KQG2 series is available in both metric and inch sizes. The KQG2 is more compact and lightweight, and offers more configuration variations and tube sizes than the KQG series.

KFG2, 316 Stainless
Steel Fittings

The SGH 2 port high pressure coolant valve for coolant liquid (up to 3MPa/7MPa) is ideal for lubrication, dust blowing and cooling. It is available as solenoid and air operated the flow rate ranges from Cv of 1.8 to 6.5.

AS/JAS, Push Lock
Flow Controller

The AS speed controller variants with push lock allow for easy locking of the flow rate setting without a tool.

AS-FS, Push Lock Flow Controller
with Number Indicator

The AS speed controller variants with indicator window allow for numerical verification of flow rate setting.

ASD, Flow
Controller

Series ASD, combines a meter-in and meter-out dual speed controller in a single body. The series is available with PT or NPT ports and one-touch fittings are standard. Tamper proof and flat head screwdriver adjustable versions are also available for extra protection against inadvertent operation.

ASP, Flow Controller
with Check Valve

Series ASP is a speed controller with an integrated pilot check valve. This combination makes it possible to control cylinder speeds and permits temporary intermediate stops. The ASP is standard with electroless nickel plating on all brass parts and allows 360 degree freedom for tube mounting direction.

Tubing

TU/TIUB/TCU,
Polyurethane Tubing

SMC's series of polyurethane tubing is manufactured from Polyether resin, insuring the longest possible tube life due to its immunity to hydrolysis. Series TIUB inch size tubing is available in 8 "quick ship" colors, in standard stocked lengths of 66ft, 100ft, 500ft, 1000ft and 1640ft. There are 21 additional standard colors to suit special needs.

TUZ, Wear
Resistant Tubing

The TUZ tubing series was designed to reduce sliding motion abrasion. This special polyurethane material is very similar to that of regular polyurethane and still maintains a small bending radius. Piping labor hours can be reduced with the TUZ's ability to fit into narrow piping spaces. The TUZ is available in 20 and 100 meter rolls with six different colors to choose from.

TRB/TRBU, Spark
Resistant Tubing

Series TRB flame resistance double layer tubing is suitable for air and water piping in environments where sparks from spot welders, etc., may be a problem. The double layer design uses a flame resistant resin (equivalent to UL-94 Standard V-0) for the outer layer. The TRB series is available in a variety of colors. 100m roll is available for all color types.

TRTU, Flame Resistant
Three-Layer Polyurethane Tubing

Series TRTU flame resistance three-layer tubing is suitable for air and water piping in environments where sparks from arc welders, etc., may be a problem. The three-layer design uses a flame resistant polyolefin (equivalent to UL-94 Standard V-0) for the outer area. The TRTU series is available in a variety of colors and sizes and is RoHS compliant.

TL/TIL, Fluororesin
Tubing

High purity fluoropolymer tubing is available as standard in metric and inch sizes. These series has outstanding corrosion resistance, compatible with chemicals such as acids, bases and ultrapure water.
