MET / METH Connectors
DESCRIPTION: Quick connectors for Male Threads.
Please thoroughly read the instructions prior to operating the connector. The
Connectors are designed to provide a safe, reliable leak-tight seal and connection when properly
maintained and operated.

to the introduction of pressure or processing. Use only in a safe environment. Safety chains
and guards are recommended for all applications.
• Connectors are NOT designed for permanent connections and are for temporary
connections only. Inadvertent loosening and loss of media may result when used as a
permanent connection.
• Connectors are not internally valved and will not prevent loss of media when disconnected.
• DO NOT EXCEED pressure rating as marked on connector or corresponding literature.
Operating pressure rating based on tests using NPTF threads to (SAE J476a Dryseal
Specifications) of cold drawn steel. Material or thread deviations may reduce working
pressure and should be verified by test.
OPERATION:
1. Fasten connector securely to supply line or manifold by threading connector
wrench-tight using wrench flats on body.
2. Thread connector finger-tight onto test piece until Main Seal contacts test
piece.
