FAQ's of 1/2" NPT(M)-1/4" OD SS304/SS316 Male Connector:
Q: How do I install this 1/2" NPT(M) to 1/4" OD male connector?
A: The connector is installed by tightening it with a suitable wrench until fully engaged. The ferrule compression sealing method gives a secure, leak-free fit without the need for additional sealants.
Q: What types of media can this connector handle?
A: This connector is designed for use with air, gas, and liquid, making it suitable for a wide range of fluid transfer and distribution setups.
Q: When should I use SS304 versus SS316 for this connector?
A: Choose SS304 for general applications, but select SS316 when enhanced corrosion resistance is needed, such as in marine or chemical environments.
Q: Where can I source this connector in India?
A: This product is available through distributors, exporters, importers, manufacturers, service providers, suppliers, and traders across India.
Q: What is the sealing process used for this connector?
A: It utilizes a ferrule compression sealing method, which compresses the ferrule onto the tubing to achieve a reliable, long-lasting seal.
Q: What are the benefits of the one-piece body design?
A: One-piece construction enhances durability and reduces potential leak paths, ensuring consistent reliability and minimizing maintenance requirements.
Q: Is any maintenance required for the connector?
A: Maintenance needs are minimal due to its sturdy one-piece design and lack of replaceable parts. Regular checks for tightness and system integrity are recommended.
