Parker Hannifin Corporation introduces a series of push-button thermoplastic couplings that speed throughput and productivity in a wide range of industries and applications. The quick, intuitive operation of the couplings’ push-button latch (with audible and tactile feedback of connection) lets users know they’ve made a secure connection. Streamlined, compact and lightweight, these general-purpose, push-to-connect thermoplastic couplings can be used for medical devices, laboratory equipment and chemical processing, as well as food and beverage and industrial applications. PPA 0.25-inch (6.35-mm) flow couplings are designed with a plastic latch for push-button release and are connectable with other similar, plastic latch, push-button couplings. PPM 0.125-inch (3.175-mm) flow couplings utilize a metal latch for push-button release and are connectable with other similar, metal-latch, push-button couplings. PPA, PPM and PPL couplings are made of DuPont Delrin® acetal and are available valved or unvalved for greater application versatility. Standard seal material is nitrile and standard spring material is stainless steel. http://www.parker.com/thermoplasticcouplings/quickconnect(763) 544-7781
