COILED TUBING CONNECTORS

Coiled tubing connectors are specialized connectors used to attach coiled tubing (a flexible, retractable type of tubing) to various medical devices, such as blood pressure monitors, oxygen concentrators, or ventilators. These connectors provide a reliable, leak-free connection and allow for flexibility and ease of movement, especially in settings where equipment needs to be portable or adjusted frequently.

Types and Specifications of Coiled Tubing Connectors

1. Material: Typically made from medical-grade materials, such as polypropylene or polyethylene, that are durable, flexible, and resistant to kinking and cracking.

2. Sizes: Available in various inner and outer diameters to fit different tubing and equipment connections. Common sizes are standardized for compatibility with medical devices but may vary slightly depending on specific brands.

3. Design Types:

   • Push-to-Connect: Easy to attach and detach, providing a secure, airtight fit.
   • Luer Lock Connectors: A locking design for added security, preventing accidental disconnection.
   • Barbed Connectors: Have ridges to securely hold the tubing in place, often used in high-flow scenarios.

4. Length of Coiled Tubing: Coiled tubing lengths can range from a few inches (when coiled) to several feet when extended, allowing for flexibility without tangling.

5. Common Applications:

   • Blood pressure cuffs
   • Oxygen supply systems
   • Ventilators and CPAP machines
   • Any other medical devices requiring flexible tubing connections
