SMC Pneumatic Fittings Ireland, Frequently Asked Questions
What types of SMC pneumatic fittings does Hydraquip stock in Ireland?
Our SMC pneumatic fittings Ireland range covers every connection type:
- Push In Fittings, including the KQ2T union tee and KQ2H straight union series, for fast tube to tube connection without tools
- Quick Couplers, for speedy assembly and disassembly during maintenance, in straight, elbow, T shaped, and Y shaped configurations
- Simple Connectors, in brass and stainless steel for high temperature or corrosive resistance
What tubing options does Hydraquip supply?
Our SMC pneumatic fittings Ireland customers can choose from a wide tubing range:
- TU Series, standard polyurethane tubing, the most widely used general purpose option
- TH Series, FEP fluoropolymer, chemical and heat resistant for demanding environments
- TFU Series, flat polyurethane tubing, ideal for multi tube custom configurations
- TS Series, soft nylon tubing for flexible routing
- TRB Series, flame resistant double layer tubing for safety critical installations
We ensure the correct O.D. and I.D. for your system’s required flow rate and pressure across all tubing types.
What flow control and check valve options are available?
Our flow control range, including the AS series speed controllers in elbow and in line configurations, accurately modulates air flow through your actuators, with tamper proof, push lock, and air conservation adjustment options. The ASP series combines speed control with a built in pilot check valve, useful where backflow prevention and flow adjustment are both required in one component.
Do you supply manifolds and check valves too?
Yes. For air distribution, our manifolds allow connection of multiple pneumatic tubes via instant connection, modular, and rotary segments. We also offer standard, high flow, and high pressure check valves, including piloted models and those with state detection, used to manage temporary pauses or prevent backflow in pneumatic lines.
How do I choose the right fittings and tubing for my system?
Selecting the right component depends on connection type, whether quick coupling or simple, application requirements such as FDA compliance, clean room, or antistatic needs, and the appropriate material for your environment. Our Hydraquip team can guide your selection across SMC pneumatic fittings Ireland wide, whether you need TU series general purpose tubing or TH series chemical resistant tubing for a demanding application.
