Push-in fittings for pipes PQ
Festo PQ push-in fittings for pipes are designed for rigid plastic and metal pipes with outside diameters of 12, 15, 18 and 22 mm. Unlike tube fittings, the CQ system's gripping teeth engage positively with the pipe wall, providing a pressure-tight, vibration-resistant connection without threaded sleeves. The range includes straight fittings (CQ), T-connectors (CQT), reducers, fluid separators (CQA), blanking plugs (CQC), manifolds (CQD), push-in sleeves (CQH), release tools (CQO) and locking rings (CQSR).
