Smc Pneumatics KQ2E10-00A Bulkhead Union Fitting 10mm

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KQ2E10-00A is a push-to-connect bulkhead union tube fitting designed for pneumatic plumbing and fluid-line installations that require routing tubing through a panel or bulkhead wall. Built with a brass body and polybutylene tubing contact components, this fitting accepts 10mm outside-diameter tubing and uses an M20x1 thread for secure panel mounting. It holds a maximum working pressure of 145 psi, making it suitable for standard compressed-air and pneumatic control circuits. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and pneumatic system technicians install this type of fitting when a clean, tool-free tube connection on both sides of a panel is required.

This bulkhead union fitting is used in industrial pneumatic systems, automation equipment, and compressed-air distribution panels where tubing must pass through an enclosure wall or mounting surface. The push-to-connect design speeds up assembly and allows field disconnection without additional tooling. It is appropriate for both new installations and retrofit work in light manufacturing, process control, and machine-building environments where panel-mount pneumatic connections are common.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design allows fast, tool-free tube insertion and release
• Bulkhead configuration routes 10mm OD tubing cleanly through panels or enclosures
• M20x1 thread provides a secure, standard panel-mount interface
• Brass and polybutylene construction suited for compressed-air service
• Rated to 145 psi maximum working pressure
• RoHS compliant materials

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect bulkhead union for pneumatic tubing systems using 10mm outside-diameter tubing with M20x1 panel-mount thread requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by qualified pneumatic technicians, pipefitters, or maintenance personnel. Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic circuit before removing or installing any fitting. Ensure the panel hole is sized and deburred correctly for the M20x1 thread before threading in the fitting body. Confirm tubing is cut square and fully seated to the stop before pressurizing the system.
