Q&A

Frequently Asked Questions

Q:

What are the connection sizes on the John Guest CI220808W?

A:

It has a 1/4-inch stem that plugs into a compatible quick-connect port and a 1/4-inch quick-connect socket for OD tubing.

Q:

How is a stem elbow different from a threaded elbow?

A:

The stem end is smooth and seals inside another quick-connect fitting. It does not screw into a threaded port.

Q:

Can the elbow rotate after installation?

A:

Push-fit elbows can usually be oriented after insertion when the connected fittings permit it. Avoid side load, kinks, or constant stress on the collet.

Q:

How should tubing be prepared?

A:

Use a proper cutter to make a square, undamaged end. Push the tube fully to the stop and tug gently to verify engagement.

Q:

What pressure and temperature limits apply?

A:

John Guest lists up to 150 psi at 70°F and 100 psi at 150°F for this acetal-white fitting family. Use the lowest limit among all connected parts.

Q:

Can this fitting be used for compressed air?

A:

The manufacturer states the CI acetal-white range is not suitable for compressed-air applications. Use it only with compatible liquids and tubing.
