duotight – 8mm (5/16”) Female x 8mm (5/16”) Female Push In Elbow

Duck around corners and make sharp turns with the duotight elbow fitting. Designed for quick, reliable push-in connections, this fitting allows tight 90-degree routing of tubing without causing kinks or restricting flow. Its double EPDM O-ring seal ensures a leak-free join across a variety of liquid and gas applications.

Applications & Compatibility

• Stop kinks: Avoid kinking your liquid or gas line when you need it to bend at right angles.
• 8mm EVAbarrier or post: Compatible with any 8mm OD EVAbarrier or 8mm duotight post.

8mm Tubing Compatibility

This 8mm duotight fitting is optimised for use with EVABarrier Dual Barrier Line. It is compatible with:

• KL06224: 4mm ID x 8mm OD | 12m
• KL06231: 5mm ID x 8mm OD | 12m
• KL42741: 5mm ID x 8mm OD | 12m (Red)
• KL42765: 4mm ID x 8mm OD | 12m (Black Lightshield)

The duotight Generation 2 Difference

Why settle for standard push-in fittings? duotight Generation 2 represents a massive leap in engineering over traditional acetal fittings.

Dual-Material Double O-Ring Design

The secret to our superior seal is a two-stage system using two different high-quality materials:

1. EPDM O-Ring: Provides exceptional chemical and gas resistance.
2. Silicone O-Ring: Maintains its shape and elasticity in sub-zero temperatures.

High-Performance Materials (POK)

Instead of standard Acetal, Generation 2 fittings are made from Polyketone (POK).

• Higher Chemical Resistance: Withstands harsh brewery cleaners.
• UV Protection: Won't become brittle over time.
• Extreme Durability: Rated for over 300psi @ 25°C.

User-Friendly Features

• Color-Coded Collets: Black denotes 8mm (5/16").
• Depth Indicators: Includes >| |< indicators so you know the hose is fully seated.
• No Clamps Necessary: Simply push to seal; push the collet to release.

We recommend using a Tube Cutter to ensure a perfectly straight, burr-free cut. An angled cut is the #1 cause of leaks in push-fit systems.
