Constructed from brass with polybutylene components, it accepts tubing with an 8mm outside diameter and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 145 psi. The fitting is suitable for compressed air, inert gas, and compatible fluid lines. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and pneumatic system technicians install this type of fitting in both production and maintenance applications where fast, reliable tube connections are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe KQ2L08-00A is well suited for residential, commercial, and light industrial pneumatic plumbing where inline tube unions are needed. Its push-to-connect design allows technicians to complete connections without additional tools, cutting installation time on air lines, water lines, and similar low-pressure tubing runs. The operating temperature range of 23 degrees F to 140 degrees F covers most indoor and climate-controlled environments. This fitting is commonly installed in automation panels, HVAC control pneumatics, and plumbing rough-in work involving polybutylene or compatible soft tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-to-connect design allows fast, tool-free tube insertion and secure union connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass body construction provides durability and corrosion resistance in pneumatic and fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated to 145 psi maximum working pressure for reliable performance in compressed air and low-pressure fluid lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with 8mm outside diameter tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of 23 degrees F to 140 degrees F suits most indoor service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoHS compliant construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style push-to-connect union fitting for use with 8mm outside diameter polybutylene and compatible tubing in pneumatic and fluid-handling systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by pipefitters, pneumatic technicians, or licensed plumbers depending on the application. Before servicing any line, depressurize the system fully and confirm pressure has bled to zero before disconnecting or inserting fittings. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely with no burrs before inserting into the push-to-connect collet to achieve a proper seal. Follow applicable codes such as the IPC or equipment manufacturer guidelines for pneumatic plumbing installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Push-to-Connect\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass, Polybutylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 145 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: RoHS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121700\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SMC PNEUMATICS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: KQ2L08-00A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SMC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52055213277490,"sku":"KQ2L08-00A","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0b6753c9c45467d58c4bffdf2ddff797_6043fad6-f4c1-4747-91e6-7c66b33c5253.jpg?v=1790037400","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/smc-pneumatics-kq2l08-00a-push-to-connect-union-fitting","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
