They are rated for a constant running pressure of 5 bar (72psi) and a maximum pressure of 7 bar (101psi).

Can these connectors be used for systems other than fuel lines?

Yes, they are also suitable for oil and water cooling systems, provided the hose size compatibility is met.

What is the operating temperature range?

The connectors can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 120°C.

Are these connectors reusable?

Yes, the quick connect design allows for repeated connection and disconnection with ease, provided they are not damaged.

Troubleshooting

Connector won't click into place

Ensure the fuel line is fully inserted and check for any obstructions or damage on the end of the hose or inside the connector port. Verify you are using the correct size hose (6mm nylon or 7.5mm ID rubber).

Connector leaks fuel

Check that the connection is fully engaged. Inspect the O-ring seal (FKM/Viton) for damage or wear. Ensure the hose is properly seated and clamped if it's a rubber hose application.

Difficulty disconnecting the connector

Ensure the release tabs are fully depressed. Check for debris or swelling in the connection area that might be hindering the release. Gently wiggle the connector while pressing the tabs.

Connector feels loose after connection

Confirm the connector has clicked into place and is fully engaged. Ensure the hose itself is not compromised or too pliable, which could lead to a poor seal under pressure.
