SMC KQ2 Series Brass Pneumatic Fitting Male Threaded-to-Tube R 3/8 in Push-in 8mm Electroless Nickel Plated KQ2L08-03AS

SMC KQ2L08-03AS brass pneumatic fitting male threaded-to-tube is a precision-engineered component used extensively in pneumatic systems for industrial, manufacturing, and fluid power applications. This male elbow fitting connects threaded female ports at a 90° angle to push-in tube connections, providing convenient directional changes within pneumatic lines while maintaining secure, leak-free joints.

Manufactured from robust brass material with an electroless nickel plated finish, the fitting offers high mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and chemical resistance suitable for various operating environments up to 60°C. The electroless nickel plating also enhances surface hardness, reducing wear and extending service life.

The fitting features a thread size of R 3/8 inch (male), with an 8 mm push-in tube connection, facilitating rapid and reliable installation with minimal effort. Its compact form factor enables use in confined spaces where larger fittings cannot be accommodated.

Certified to conform with RoHS directives, this product meets critical environmental and safety standards for pneumatic components. It is ideal for use in industrial, laboratory automation, HVAC, manufacturing lines, and pneumatic automation systems requiring durable and precise fluid power connections.

Key benefits include a lower force required for insertion and removal, improving user ergonomics and reducing service times, making it suitable for maintenance-intensive systems. Constructed from high-quality brass for durability and corrosion resistance.

Electroless nickel plating finish enhances surface hardness and chemical resistance. Designed as a 90° male elbow fitting for right-angle piping applications. Operates safely up to a maximum temperature of 60°C. Threaded-to-tube connection type with R 3/8 inch male thread and 8mm push-in tube.

Compliant with RoHS standards ensuring environmental safety. Compact design suitable for installations in confined spaces. Requires low insertion and removal forces for ease of use.
