Metal Female Luer Lock Fitting Dynapex Nickel Brass 1/4″ BSPP Male

Description

Product Overview

The Metal Female Luer Lock Fitting by Dynapex is engineered for high‑performance fluid transfer in demanding environments. Crafted from nickel‑plated brass, the fitting offers exceptional corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, ensuring a long service life even when exposed to aggressive chemicals or frequent sterilization cycles. The female Luer end provides a secure, standardized connection for syringes and tubing, while the 1/4″ BSPP male thread on the opposite side enables seamless integration with standard pipe and barbed components. This dual‑interface design eliminates the need for additional adapters, reducing assembly time and potential leak points.

Key specifications include a compact 0.5‑ounce weight for easy handling, a precision‑machined thread that meets BSPP standards, and a finish that complies with industry hygiene requirements. The fitting is compatible with a wide range of laboratory and medical devices, making it a versatile choice for researchers, clinicians, and technicians who demand reliability and consistency.

Usage

Designed for versatility, this fitting excels in laboratory settings where accurate fluid dosing is critical. It is ideal for connecting syringes to custom tubing assemblies in chromatography, sample preparation, and analytical instrumentation. In medical environments, the fitting provides a dependable link between infusion pumps and sterile tubing, supporting safe drug delivery and fluid management. Its robust construction also suits industrial applications such as pneumatic testing rigs, hydraulic loops, and process control systems that require a leak‑tight seal under pressure.

Because the fitting conforms to both Luer and BSPP standards, it can be employed in mixed‑technology setups, bridging the gap between medical‑grade components and traditional plumbing hardware. Whether you are building a prototype fluid circuit, retrofitting an existing system, or assembling a new laboratory rig, the Dynapex fitting offers the confidence of a secure, repeatable connection.

FAQ

What fluids can be used with this fitting?

The fitting is compatible with most aqueous and organic solutions commonly used in laboratory and medical applications, including saline, buffer solutions, and low‑viscosity solvents. Always verify chemical compatibility for aggressive substances.

Is the fitting sterilizable?

Yes, the nickel‑plated brass material tolerates standard sterilization methods such as autoclaving and chemical sterilants, making it suitable for reusable medical equipment.

What pressure rating does the fitting have?

The fitting is rated for pressures up to 150 psi (10 bar) when properly installed, providing a safe margin for most low‑ to medium‑pressure fluid systems.

Can I use this fitting with non‑standard tubing sizes?

The female Luer end conforms to ISO 594‑1, which works with standard Luer‑lock tubing (typically 1 mm to 4 mm ID). For non‑standard sizes, an additional adapter may be required.

How do I ensure a leak‑free connection?

Apply a compatible thread sealant or PTFE tape to the BSPP male threads, and tighten the fitting to the recommended torque. Ensure the Luer end is fully engaged with the tubing before applying pressure.
