This 5-pack of Loops pneumatic couplings is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts needing to connect metric 8mm pneumatic tubing to 1/4" BSP imperial threads. The key benefit is a reliable, corrosion-free connection for pneumatic systems. A potential caveat is their specific use with nylon tubing. These straight adapter couplings feature durable acetal copolymer bodies, nitrile rubber O-rings, and acetal collets with stainless steel teeth for a secure and long-lasting fit.

These couplings are designed specifically for 8mm outside diameter (OD) metric nylon pneumatic tubing.
They adapt to a 1/4" BSP (British Standard Pipe) imperial thread.
No, these couplings are designed for pneumatic (air) systems only and are not intended for water or other fluids.
The bodies are produced from acetal copolymer, an engineering plastic that is corrosion-free and suitable for pneumatic applications.
To disconnect, push the collet ring inwards towards the coupling body while simultaneously pulling the tubing out.
While designed for pneumatics, specific pressure ratings should be checked against your system's requirements. They are generally suitable for standard pneumatic pressures.
This product is a 5-pack, meaning you receive five couplings.
Ensure the 8mm nylon tube is fully inserted and seated. Check that the tube is cut cleanly and squarely. Verify the 1/4" BSP thread is tightened appropriately and the mating port is not damaged.
Confirm you are using 8mm metric nylon tubing. Check for any obstructions or damage at the end of the tube or inside the coupling port. Ensure the collet is not stuck.
Verify the tube is fully seated and the collet teeth are engaging properly. Ensure the tubing is not being subjected to excessive pulling forces or vibration that could dislodge it.
Push the collet ring inwards towards the coupling body while simultaneously pulling the tubing out. Ensure you are pushing the correct part of the collet.
