Smc Pneumatics KQ2P-13 Plug Fitting 1/2 Inch Od 150 Psi

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KQ2P-13 is a push-to-connect plug fitting designed to cap off open tube ends in pneumatic and fluid handling systems. Built from brass and polybutylene with an orange body for quick visual identification, this fitting accepts 1/2-inch outside diameter tubing and holds a maximum working pressure of 150 psi. Installation requires no tools - tubing seats and locks with a single push, making it a fast, reliable option for terminating unused ports or sealing lines during maintenance. Licensed technicians working with compressed air lines, pneumatic controls, and low-pressure fluid systems will find this fitting straightforward to deploy.

The KQ2P-13 is suited for use in residential and light commercial pneumatic systems where 1/2-inch OD tubing is run to actuators, controllers, solenoid valves, or distribution manifolds. It is a common solution for capping branch lines, closing off test ports, and temporarily or permanently sealing tube ends without crimping or threading. Its compact form factor fits in tight panel or cabinet spaces where larger fittings would not clear adjacent components.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and lock out the pneumatic circuit before installing or removing any fittings. Ensure the tubing end is cut cleanly and squarely with a proper tube cutter to achieve a full, leak-free seat. Verify that tubing OD falls within the specified tolerance for this fitting before insertion. Follow all applicable local codes and system manufacturer guidelines for pneumatic line work.
