Quick Disconnects

Quick Disconnects

Quick disconnect fittings, also called quick connect couplings, are a fast and easy way to make and break a vacuum seal onto metal or glass tubing. These useful fittings can be welded, brazed, soldered, or flange-mounted onto your vacuum system, chamber, or flange. They are commonly used to mount vacuum measurement gauges, feedthroughs, and other accessories.
