Push-in/threaded L-fitting
QSML-M5-4
Quick Star

The Quick Star connector series offers a reliable solution for

every connection.
The stainless steel retaining ring inside the fitting holds the
tubing securely without damaging its surface. Vibration and
pressure surges
are safely absorbed. The tubing can be detached easily by
pressing down the blue release ring. For your convenience,
the appropriate
outside tubing diameter is marked on the release ring. An
NBR rubber sealing ring guarantees a perfect seal between
standard OD tubing
and the body of the fitting.
Standard tubing is suitable for use with compressed air and
vacuum.
All of the brass components included with Festo’s push-in
fittings are nickel plated, and are thus highly resistant to
corrosion.

screwed too far into connection threads. The insertion depth
and the recommended
tightening torque must be observed. Damage may otherwise
