Is the Quick-connect plug with BSPT GZ and valve, polysulfone, HFC series DN 12.7 suitable for autoclaving and repeated sterilization without loss of performance?

Yes. The Quick-connect plug with BSPT GZ and valve, polysulfone, HFC series DN 12.7 is suitable for autoclaving and repeated sterilization without loss of performance. The product description explicitly states it is "suitable for autoclaving," and its construction supports repeated sterilization: polysulfone body offers high mechanical strength and excellent chemical resistance at elevated temperatures; EPDM Oâring sealing is compatible with steam sterilization; specified operating temperature range (â40Â°C to +138Â°C) and working pressure (up to 8.6 bar) indicate the component tolerates conditions typical for autoclave cycles. It is designed for minimal leakage and sustained high flow, and its valve and coupling design reduce mechanical stress during use. As with any critical sterilization process, validate compatibility in your specific autoclave cycle (temperature, pressure, exposure time, and any chemical sterilants) and perform routine inspection of Oârings and sealing surfaces after repeated cycles.

Can the Quick-connect plug with BSPT GZ and valve, polysulfone, HFC series DN 12.7 be used with aggressive chemicals without degrading seals or housing?

Quick-connect plug with BSPT GZ and valve, polysulfone, HFC series DN 12.7: Polysulfone body offers good chemical resistance and high mechanical strength; EPDM o-ring provides compatibility with many aqueous and non-polar fluids but has limited resistance to strong acids, ketones, aromatic hydrocarbons and many aggressive solvents. Rated for -40Â°C to +138Â°C and up to 8.6 bar; suitable for chemical photographic processes, battery filling, sprayers and non-freezing liquids, and autoclaving. For aggressive chemicals (strong acids, bases, chlorinated solvents, ketones, aromatics, or concentrated oxidisers) degradation of EPDM seals or polysulfone housing is possible. Recommend checking compatibility of specific chemicals with polysulfone and EPDM (or substituting seals), or consult manufacturer for chemical-resistance data before use.

Does the Quick-connect plug with BSPT GZ and valve, polysulfone, HFC series DN 12.7 allow slight hose rotation to prevent twisting or accidental disconnection?

Yes. The Quick-connect plug with BSPT GZ and valve, polysulfone, HFC series DN 12.7 allows slight rotation of the connected hose to prevent twisting and accidental disconnection. The product description explicitly states it "allows for slight rotation of the connected hose," which helps avoid hose kinking and unintended uncoupling while maintaining high flow rates, low leakage, and reliable sealing (EPDM o-ring) under working pressures up to 8.6 bar and temperatures from â40Â°C to +138Â°C.

Additional information

Material	P – material (plastic)

Quick coupling plug with external BSPT thread and shut-off valve, intended for water, chemical, pneumatic installations, etc. Compared to traditional massive couplings with balls and protective sleeves, it has a very low weight. The highly efficient valve allows for high flow rates and minimal leakage. This coupling also allows for slight rotation of the connected hose, preventing twisting and accidental disconnection of the coupling. Applications: chemical photographic processes, battery and accumulator filling installations, sprayers, pneumatic installations, and non-freezing liquids, etc. It features high mechanical strength and chemical resistance. Suitable for autoclaving. Length L [mm] – total length. Material: polysulfone. Sealing: EPDM o-ring. Working pressure: up to 8.6 bar. Operating temperature: from -40°C to +138°C.
