Festo Brass Pneumatic Quick Connect Coupling M5 Female Thread 5mm Hose Barb Nickel Finish KD2-M5-I

Festo KD2-M5-I Pneumatic Quick Connect Coupling is a durable component featuring brass construction with a nickel finish, designed for use in industrial compressed air systems. Its female M5 threaded connection ensures secure mounting on panels or ports, while the 5mm hose barb facilitates easy and reliable attachment of pneumatic tubing.

This coupling is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 12 bar and an operating temperature range from -10°C to 60°C, making it suitable for diverse industrial environments. It conforms to ISO8573-1:2010 (7:-:-) standards, ensuring compatibility and safety in pneumatic installations.

The compact design facilitates rapid connection and disconnection in automation and mechanical assembly lines, providing a secure flow path for compressed air with minimal leakage.

Ideal applications include connecting actuators, pneumatic sensors, valves in control cabinets, pneumatic manifolds for air distribution, and test rigs that require frequent hose changes.

Installation best practices recommend applying thread-sealing tape on the M5 female thread and fully pushing the hose onto the barb, secured with a clamp when vibration or movement is expected. Regular maintenance involves inspecting the nickel-plated surfaces for wear, cleaning debris from connection interfaces, and checking hose clamps and thread seal for tightness.

While designed primarily for compressed air, the brass with nickel finish should be assessed for compatibility with other gases or liquids considering chemical properties and temperature limits.

Performance may degrade with prolonged exposure to temperature extremes near the defined limits, necessitating monitoring for seal or tubing condition. The coupling offers corrosion resistance and durability due to brass and nickel finish.

Female M5 thread facilitates secure mounting in pneumatic assemblies. 5mm hose barb connection ensures easy tubing attachment. Maximum operating pressure of 12 bar supports moderate pneumatic system requirements. Operating temperature range of -10°C to 60°C accommodates typical industrial environments.
