Smc Pneumatics KQ2T01-00A Union Tee Fitting 1/8 in Od

Product Description

The SMC PNEUMATICS KQ2T01-00A is a push-to-connect union tee tube fitting designed for pneumatic and fluid-handling tubing systems. It accepts 1/8-inch outside diameter tubing and delivers a tool-free, leak-resistant connection at all three ports. The fitting is constructed from brass with a polybutylene body, rated to a maximum working pressure of 145 psi. It is well-suited for compressed air lines, light fluid circuits, and instrumentation plumbing where a compact tee junction is needed. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and pneumatic system technicians install this type of fitting in both bench assembly and field service work.

This fitting is used in residential and light commercial pneumatic control systems, automation equipment, and fluid distribution panels. The push-to-connect design allows tubing to be inserted and locked without threading tools or ferrule compression, making it a practical choice for tight spaces or frequent service points. It is appropriate for use with compatible polybutylene or similarly rated tubing in dry or wet compressed-air service.

Key Features

• Push-to-connect design - no tools required for tube insertion and retention
• Union tee configuration joins three tubes at a single junction point
• Rated to 145 psi maximum working pressure
• Brass and polybutylene construction for corrosion resistance in air and light fluid service
• Operating temperature range from 23 degrees F to 140 degrees F
• RoHS compliant

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect union tee for pneumatic and fluid-handling tubing systems using 1/8-inch outside diameter tubing.

Installation Notes

This fitting is typically installed by pipefitters, pneumatic technicians, or plumbers working on compressed air or low-pressure fluid circuits. Before installation, depressurize the system completely and verify that tubing outside diameter and material ratings match the fitting specifications. Ensure tubing is cut cleanly and squarely and inserted fully until it bottoms out to achieve a proper seal. To release tubing, depress the collet ring while pulling the tube free.
