FAQs
What type of tubing is compatible with the Sealey JGCET10?
The Sealey JGCET10 Stem Elbow is designed for 10mm outer diameter pneumatic tubing, specifically within the John Guest Speedfit Pneumatic Coupling System.
Are these fittings suitable for water lines?
While the materials are corrosion-free, these are specifically designed and recommended for pneumatic (air) applications within the John Guest Speedfit Pneumatic Coupling System. Using them for water may not be supported.
How do I disconnect the tubing?
To disconnect, push the collet (the ring around the tubing entry point) towards the body of the fitting and simultaneously pull the tubing out.
What does 'Stem Elbow' mean?
A 'Stem Elbow' fitting provides a 90-degree angle connection, with one end being a stem (designed to insert into a port or another fitting) and the other being an elbow for directional change.
Can I use these with other brands of pneumatic fittings?
For optimal performance and a secure seal, it is highly recommended to use these fittings exclusively with other components from the John Guest Speedfit Pneumatic Coupling System.
What are the main materials used in this fitting?
The bodies and collets are made from acetal copolymer, and the O-rings are made from nitrile rubber. The collet teeth are stainless steel.
Troubleshooting
Air leak at connection point
Ensure the 10mm tubing is cut squarely and inserted fully into the stem elbow. Check that the O-ring is seated correctly and not damaged. Verify that the mating Speedfit connector is also properly engaged.
Tubing does not insert easily
Confirm you are using the correct 10mm outer diameter tubing and that the end is cut cleanly. Ensure no debris is present inside the fitting.
Tubing pulls out unexpectedly
Verify that the collet teeth are gripping the tubing securely. Ensure the collet is not damaged and that the tubing is not deformed. Check that the fitting is properly engaged with the mating component.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Ensure the pneumatic system is depressurized before installation.
Cut the 10mm tubing cleanly and squarely.
Push the tubing firmly into the stem elbow until it seats correctly.
To disconnect, push the collet towards the body of the fitting and pull the tubing out.
Compatibility:
This product is designed exclusively for use with the John Guest Speedfit Pneumatic Coupling System.
It is compatible with 10mm outer diameter pneumatic tubing.
Ensure all other components in the system are also compatible.
Care:
The acetal copolymer material is inherently corrosion-free and requires minimal cleaning.
If cleaning is necessary, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Periodically inspect fittings for any signs of damage or wear, particularly the O-ring and collet.
