Q:
What are the connection sizes on the John Guest CI221212W?
A:
It has a 3/8-inch stem that plugs into a compatible quick-connect port and a 3/8-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.
