5/32 in. x 10-32 Plastic Composite Male Connector
Overview
The Midland 20050C5332 is a composite push-to-connect male connector that joins 5/32 in. push-in tubing to a 10-32 UNF male thread. The lightweight composite body resists corrosion and chemical attack while keeping cost and weight low, and the tube seats by hand with no tools. It is rated to 150 psi for low- and medium-pressure pneumatic work.

Typical Applications
The 20050C5332 suits 5/32 in. tube connections at 10-32 ports where a light, corrosion-resistant composite body is preferred over brass, such as in low-pressure pneumatic controls, OEM equipment, and washdown environments. The composite construction is a good fit where weight or media compatibility favors a non-metallic fitting.

FAQ
Why choose composite over brass?
The composite body is lighter, lead-free, and resists many chemicals and washdown conditions that can corrode metal, at a lower cost. Brass is preferred for higher pressure or temperature.
What is the pressure and temperature limit?
150 psi within a 32 to 140°F range. Keep the system inside both limits.
Do I need tools?
No. Push the 5/32 in. tube in until it seats and the collet grips automatically. Push the collar in to release.
