Swivel fittings connect tubing to a threaded hole. The barb (and tubing) can be freely rotated from the base. A captured O-ring provides a high quality seal against the mating part. Barbed connections are a clean, time tested and cost efficient method of connection. The hoop strength of the tube holds around the barbed fitting. Air Logic's first barb is free of a parting line to create a good seal, additional barbs increase holding force for tube retention. Buna is used as the standard elastomer, but we are also able to produce with Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EDPM), Fluoroelastomers (FKM), or Silicone. Reference the Air Logic 10-32 thread interface and seal guide.

Barbed connections are free of lubrication or thread sealant used in other styles of connection. Simply push the tube over the barb and the connection is complete. This product may be integrated into other Air Logic products such as check valves, filters, switches and regulators. Custom materials may be available upon request. Swivel products enable the production of tubing assemblies that can be made complete with fittings. This enables error-proofing in manufacturing where critical tubing assemblies must be connected correctly. Swivel products also relieve stress on tubing due to moving or re-positioning. |
