Parker A5TEU5-MG Push-to-connect Plug 5/16 Inch Od

Product Description

The PARKER A5TEU5-MG is a push-to-connect plug fitting designed to terminate or cap a 5/16-inch OD tube line without tools. The fitting is manufactured from polyoxymethylene (POM), a rigid acetal thermoplastic known for chemical resistance and dimensional stability in fluid system applications. It is rated to 300 psi and carries a tan color designation for easy identification in the field. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and fluid system installers use this type of plug to seal off unused ports or temporarily cap lines during service or system commissioning.

This plug fitting is suited for use in pneumatic and low-pressure fluid distribution systems where push-to-connect termination is required. It accepts 5/16-inch OD tubing and provides a secure, tool-free seal. Typical applications include instrumentation lines, compressed air distribution, and light-duty fluid handling in both residential and commercial equipment. The POM construction makes it appropriate for use with water, air, and many non-aggressive fluid media.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and isolate the line before installing or removing any push-to-connect fitting. Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely with no burrs before inserting into the fitting. This fitting is intended for use within its rated pressure limit; verify system operating pressure before installation. Removal of a push-to-connect plug typically requires depressing the release collar while withdrawing the tube.
