3100 00 00 61 — Carstick® — Straight

Description

Carstick® is a fully integrated one-piece cartridge providing instant connection between the housing and the tubing. It can be inserted in elastic polymers, brass, aluminum non-threaded and non-grooved cavities. Carstick® allows the optimization of your system design and enables the automation of your manufacturing process. This is the right connection solution for energy, space and time saving.
 
Carstick+ is an extended version of Carstick®. This push-in fitting can be inserted with a low effort. It is suitable for a large range of housing materials including non-elastic polymers. It is removable without damaging its cavity making it reusable.
 
Carstick® and Carstick+ push-to-connect cartridges enable a quick tube connection and can be used in various low-pressure applications such as liquid and pneumatic applications. Please, look out for the below list of industries Carstick® and Carstick+ can be used for:
