Diba Industries has expanded its line of Click-N-Seal connection fittings to suit barbed fluid connections; this is in addition to the already available fittings for flared and ferrule connections.
The reusable fittings provide objective feedback to installers, preventing excess torque, which can lead to leaks and flow problems.
The pre-assembled Click-N-Seal prevents the fitting over- or under-tightening in IVD and scientific equipment.
When the correct torque is reached, the reusable Click-N-Seal produces a click the installer can feel and hear and physically prevents tightening beyond that point.
Poor fluid connections and leaky processing are eliminated without tools or guesswork.
The fitting can be unthreaded and re-used, stopping at the correct torque every time.
In the barbed fittings typically used with soft tubing such as Tygon, silicone or norprene, over-torquing can compress tubing, interrupting consistent fluid flow and causing leaks.
The Click-N-Seal minimises the torque problems inherent in barbed fittings used with flat-bottom ports.
Click-N-Seal connections are available with 1/4-28 and M6-thread-size fittings in three colours for easy connection coding and identification.
Configurations are custom-fit to any instrument manufacturer's specification: customers may specify tubing material, inside diameter (ID) and outside diameter (OD) of up to 1/8in.
