SMC Corporation, the world's largest manufacturer of pneumatic automation products, has announced the expansion of the MQ Series Metal Seal Cylinders.
SMC responds to this demand with their new line of miniature tubing and fittings.
SMC now offers their polyurethane tubing in a new 2mm OD (1.2mm ID) size.
Seven standard colours are available (black, blue, white, red, yellow, green and clear) in 20 metre rolls.
With a minimum bending radius of only 4mm and an OD of only 2mm, this tubing can go places never before possible.
Maximum operating pressure (at 68F) is 116 psi.
Suitable fluids include air and water.
Four new fitting configurations have been developed to coincide with this new tubing.
Straight and elbow style threaded barbed fittings are available and a unique collar that helps hold the tubing on the barb better.
Barb to one-touch unions allow you to step down to the smaller tubing size where needed and plug in reducers allow direct connection of the 2mm tube to valve manifolds with built in one-touch fittings.
SMC Corporation manufactures high quality actuators and cylinders, airline and air preparation equipment, high-purity products, vacuum components, instrumentation, and a host of fittings and accessories applicable to the pneumatic automation industry.
