SKNPCF Series Stainless Steel Female Connectors

Features & Key Specifications

Secure Tube-to-Male-Thread Connection:

This fitting provides a straight-line connection to a male threaded component, with a quick screw nut that ensures a vibration-proof grip on the tube up to 3.0 MPa (30 bar).

Extreme Temperature & Pressure Range:

Engineered to perform in the most demanding conditions, this high-pressure, high-temperature fitting is suitable for everything from cryogenic applications to high-temperature steam lines.

Superior 316L Stainless Steel:

The use of 316L stainless steel provides maximum resistance to corrosion from aggressive liquids, steam, and harsh cleaning agents.

Versatile Media Compatibility:

Designed for use with not just air, but also water, steam, and other corrosive liquids, making it a true industrial-grade process fitting.

Comprehensive Size & Thread Options:

Tube OD (Metric): 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm

Port Sizes: M5, 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4" in NPT, BSPP (G), and BSPT (P) threads.

Application Fields

Connecting Securely to Male Threads:

Process Sensors: Providing a secure connection for tubing to the male threads of pressure or flow sensors.

High-Pressure Nozzles: Connecting supply tubing to spray nozzles in high-pressure cleaning or coating systems.

Hydraulic & Coolant Lines: Suitable for certain low-viscosity liquid applications that require high-pressure ratings.

Laboratory & Test Rigs: A reliable and reusable fitting for building test circuits.

Technical & Selection Guide

Male (SKNPC) vs. Female (SKNPCF) Connector

Choose this SKNPCF (Female) Connector if: The component you are connecting to has a male (external) thread.

Choose an SKNPC (Male) Connector if: The component you are connecting to has a female (internal) thread.

FAQ

Frequently Asked questions

Q: What is a female connector?

A: It is a fitting with a female (internal) thread on one end and a connection for a tube on the other. It is designed to be screwed onto a male-threaded pipe or component.

Q: Is this fitting suitable for use with stainless steel tubing?

A: No, this quick screw design is optimized for semi-rigid plastic tubing like Polyurethane (PU) and Nylon. For connecting hard stainless steel tubing, you must use a compression fitting.
