Smc Pneumatics KQ2H07-32A Push-to-connect Fitting 10-32

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KQ2H07-32A is a push-to-connect tube fitting in a straight connector configuration, designed to join 1/4-inch OD tubing to a 10-32 UNF male threaded port. The fitting body is brass with a polybutylene collet insert, rated to a maximum working pressure of 145 psi. Connection is tool-free on the tube side - push the tube in to lock, press the release collar to disconnect. Licensed HVAC technicians, pneumatic systems installers, and maintenance mechanics use these fittings to build or service compressed-air and fluid-control plumbing circuits quickly and reliably.

The KQ2H07-32A suits light to medium-duty pneumatic plumbing in residential and commercial applications. It is well suited for instrumentation panels, automation equipment, and compact pneumatic control circuits where a 10-32 UNF threaded port terminates a 1/4-inch OD tube run. The fitting operates across a temperature range of 23 degrees F to 140 degrees F, making it appropriate for standard indoor compressed-air and low-pressure fluid systems. The RoHS-compliant construction makes it acceptable for use in environmentally regulated installations.

Key Features

• Tool-free push-to-connect tube insertion and collar-release disconnection for fast service
• Brass body construction for durability and corrosion resistance in pneumatic service
• Polybutylene collet insert provides secure tube grip at rated pressure
• Rated to 145 psi maximum working pressure
• 10-32 UNF male thread mates directly to standard instrumentation and pneumatic ports
• RoHS compliant for use in environmentally regulated environments

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/4-inch OD tubing on 10-32 UNF threaded ports in pneumatic and light-duty fluid-control plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by pneumatic systems technicians or maintenance mechanics. Before servicing any fitting, depressurize the circuit fully and verify zero pressure before disconnecting tubing. Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely with no burrs before insertion to achieve a proper seal. Thread engagement into the receiving port should be made hand-tight then wrench-tightened carefully to avoid cracking the fitting body; apply thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads per the system design specification.
