Global Connect Fittings
Advantages
Ready-to-use compact one piece ftting for use with most
thermoplastic tubing. This ftting was designed to meet the needs of
the motion control industry where fast assembly, disassembly and
reassembly is important. No special tools needed for tube assembly,
just insert the tubing until it bottoms. Global Connect is designed
to be used without a tube support to provide full fow through the
tubing. The grab ring design of Global Connect grips the tubing
securely to provide retention. Global Connect straight fttings have
a nickel plated brass body and shaped fttings have a composite
body with nickel plated brass componentry. Global Connect
external pipe threads come with a pre-applied white PCTFE sealant.
Positional external pipe threaded ends are featured on shapes
for installation in compact areas and for precise positioning.
Global Connect fttings should not be used
for live swivel applications.
Materials
• Global Connect Straights: Brass, nickel plated
• Global Connect Shape Bodies: Polyamide

Applications
Use with Parker Parfex series “U” and “HU” polyurethane tubing
and series”N” nylon tubing. Global Connect was designed as an
economical alternative for pneumatic applications that do not
require the higher pressure capacity of the Prestolok fttings.
Consult the factory with any questions regarding special product
applications. All applications should be carefully tested through
the range of conditions which may be encountered prior to use.
Working Pressure and Temperature Range
32˚to + 140˚F at up to 150 PSI depending on tubing being used
Vacuum applications are dependent upon
temperature and type of tubing used.
Assembly Instructions
1. Cut thermoplastic tubing squarely, using Parker Tube Cutter
PTC-001. Be certain the port or mating
part is clean and free of debris.
2. Insert tubing into ftting until it bottoms. A slight
twisting motion will ease the insertion. Pull on tubing
to verify it is properly retained in the ftting.
3. To disassemble, simply push the elliptical button
against the body and remove tubing.
