FasMate FN-Series connectors connect quickly to threaded ports. Used in pressure and vacuum testing, filling, flushing and performance testing, these connectors feature easy actuation and a split collet design for instantaneous connections, eliminating the need for thread sealant and wrench tightening and preventing costly port thread damage and unnecessary downtime.

FN-Series Connectors

There are three styles of actuation: squeeze lever, pneumatic pilot and pneumatic thumb valve. Squeeze Lever: Provides simple, straightforward operation. Pneumatic Thumb Valve: Contains an easy, ergonomic thumb button that allows insertion or removal of the connector from the port when depressed. Pneumatic Pilot: Requires a separate air valve, and is ideal for applications that require technicians’ hands to have freedom of movement.

The series is constructed of stainless steel wetted parts, anodized top housing and rated for pressures up to 5,000 psi. The connectors offer an extensive threaded port sealing range of 1/8-in. to 1/2-in. NPT, as well as SAE, BSPP, and Metric sizes.
