The ME and MS series fittings include two additional male straight and two male elbows with #10-32 thread. Added sizes include 5/32” and ¼” and are sold in packages of five starting at $4.25.


The MEL series includes two additional long male elbow fittings. The 5/32” and ¼” fittings feature #10-32 threads and prices start at $10.00 for a five-pack.
The MSR series fittings are push-to-connect male straight round fittings available in ten sizes ranging from 5/32” to ¼” and 4mm to 6mm. These fittings feature a nickel-plated brass body with an internal hex socket, stainless steel gripping claws and pre-applied Teflon thread sealant. Prices start at $4.00 for a pack of five.


The HVU series of three-way hand valves is available in seven sizes ranging from ¼” to ½” and 6mm to 12mm; the valve blocks upstream pressure when closed and vents downstream pressure. Sold in packs of two, prices start at $12.75.


CVU series union check valves have been added ranging from 5/32” to 3/8” and 6mm to 8mm sizes. The check valves allow air flow in one direction and block air flow in the reverse direction. Sold in packages of five, prices start at $28.75.
Stop valves are now available in sizes ranging from 5/32” to ½” and 6mm to 12mm diameters. Designed to block upstream air pressure when the downstream tube is removed, union stop valves are sold in packages of five starting at $26.75.
A pneumatic tubing cutter designed for use with 1/8” to ½” and 4mm to 12mm flexible plastic tubing is available for $4.25.
