Q:
What does the PIC1808R locking clip do?
A:
It slides under the collet of a compatible John Guest push-fit connection to help prevent the collet from being pressed accidentally and releasing the tube.
Q:
What tubing size fits the PIC1808R?
A:
It is sized for a 1/4-inch John Guest standard-technology fitting. The size refers to tubing outside diameter.
Q:
Does the locking clip seal the connection?
A:
No. The fitting's internal O-ring makes the seal. The clip secures the collet after the tube has been inserted fully.
Q:
How is the clip installed?
A:
Push the tube fully into the fitting, pull gently to verify engagement, then slide the clip into the gap between the collet and fitting body.
Q:
Can the PIC1808R be removed and reused?
A:
Yes, if it is undamaged. Depressurize the line, remove the clip, press the collet, and pull the tube out according to John Guest instructions.
Q:
Can I use a 1/4-inch clip on a 3/8-inch fitting?
A:
No. Locking clips are size-specific. Select PIC1808R for 1/4-inch fittings and PIC1812R for 3/8-inch fittings.
