FAST ASSEMBLY


PUSH - It's connected.
Coupling snaps together, permitting flow in either direction.		

Just press clip and the coupling springs open.																

PULL - It's disconnected.

FEATURES


SINGLE END OR DOUBLE END SHUT OFF
   Quick Clip couplings are available in single end shut-off providing a		
   maximum flow tubing connection; and a double end shut-off providing
   a sealed system without extra valving.  Fluid and gas flow is positively 
   stopped on both sides of the connection with the double end shut off design,	
   eliminating the fluid leaks, system contaminations, and vacuum loss.
   
SPACE SAVING -- ATTRACTIVE
   Quick Clip couplings extend a minimal distance from the panel face
   in the coupled position.  Short bulkhead tube to tube couplings reduce
   internal connecting space requirements.  The attractive design enhances 
   any panel face appearance.
   
EASY CONNECT-DISCONNECT
   Quick Clip couplings are easily disconnected by pressing the Quick Clip
   down for instant separation. Connection is automatically locked and completed 
   by simply inserting the tube end into the panel side of the questionable open 
   or closed connections make the Quick Clip coupling applicable to all tubing 
   connections requiring frequent disconnecting.
   
FULL SWIVEL
   GRA-TEC fittings allow the tubing to swivel freely, even under pressure there 
   is never any kinking or binding to damage tubing or interrupt performance of 
   the system.
AVAILABLE IN WIDE VARIETY OF STYLES
   Tube to tube and tube to pipe couplings are available in single end
   and double end shutoff.  Special O'Ring seal materials are available on special
   order, and special tubing connections are available on request.
   
GRA-TEC "NO FERRULE" POLY TUBE CONNECTION
   All polytube, nylon, and other flexible tubing is reliably held by GRA-TEC's
   exclusive "No Ferrule" poly fitting.  Increased flow area and improved gripping
   capability are "No Ferrule" advantages compared to conventional plastic ferruled 
   polytubing fittings.  Easily assembled, the "No Ferrule" fittings is reusable 
   with all types of tubing.
