Metal Female Luer Lock Syringe Fitting Dynapex Brass 5/16″ Barbed

Description

Product Overview

The Metal Female Luer Lock Syringe Fitting by Dynapex is engineered to deliver a precise, leak‑free interface between standard syringes and 5/16″ (8 mm) barbed hoses. Crafted from high‑grade nickel‑plated brass, the fitting combines the durability of brass with the added protection of a nickel coating, which guards against corrosion in harsh chemical environments. Each fitting features a female Luer lock end that securely mates with the corresponding male Luer lock on syringes, while the opposite end terminates in a 5/16″ barb designed to grip hoses firmly without the need for additional clamps. The design adheres to industry standards for Luer‑to‑barbed straight fittings, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of laboratory, medical, and industrial equipment. The package includes two identical fittings, providing a convenient spare or allowing simultaneous installation on dual‑line setups.

Usage

These fittings excel in environments where precise fluid control is essential. In laboratory settings, they are commonly used to connect syringes to tubing for chromatography, sample preparation, and reagent dispensing. Their robust construction makes them suitable for repetitive use in protocols that require frequent syringe changes. In medical applications, the fittings can be employed in infusion systems, where a secure connection between a syringe pump and tubing is critical to maintain accurate dosing. Industrial users benefit from the fittings when integrating syringes into pneumatic or hydraulic circuits for dispensing lubricants, adhesives, or cleaning agents. The 5/16″ barb size matches a broad selection of standard hoses, simplifying inventory management and reducing the need for custom adapters. Because the fittings are nickel‑plated, they resist the corrosive effects of solvents, acids, and bases, extending service life even in aggressive chemical processes.

FAQ

What syringe sizes are compatible with this fitting?

The female Luer lock end conforms to the standard Luer lock dimensions, making it compatible with any syringe that has a male Luer lock, typically ranging from 1 mL to 60 mL.

Can the fitting be used with solvents such as ethanol or acetone?

Yes. The nickel‑plated brass material is resistant to most common laboratory solvents, including ethanol, acetone, and isopropanol. For highly aggressive acids, we recommend verifying compatibility with the specific concentration.

Is any additional sealing required on the barb side?

No additional sealing is required for standard hoses that match the 5/16″ barb size. The barb’s design creates a mechanical lock that holds the hose securely. For extra security in high‑pressure applications, a hose clamp can be added.

How many fittings are included in the package?

The product is supplied as a 2‑pack, providing two identical fittings for dual‑line setups or as a spare.

What is the warranty coverage?

Dynapex offers a limited warranty covering material defects for a period of one year from the date of purchase. Contact our support team for warranty claims.
