Festo QST-8 Push-in T-connector 8mm to 8mm 14 bar 153130

Overview
The Festo QST-8 (part number 153130) is a straight tube-to-tube T‑connector from the QS series, designed for creating reliable 90° branch connections in pneumatic systems. This fitting features three push‑in connections for 8 mm OD tubing, enabling efficient airflow distribution from a single supply line to two outputs.

The fitting is constructed from a durable PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) housing with a blue POM release ring, high‑alloy stainless steel tube retaining claw, and NBR tubing seal, offering low corrosion stress (CRC 1) and excellent resistance to industrial operating conditions. It operates reliably over a wide temperature range of -10 °C to +80 °C, with a temperature‑dependent operating pressure of -0.95 bar to 14 bar (complete temperature range up to 6 bar). The connector is certified for compressed air (ISO 8573‑1:2010) and water (liquid, ice‑free), and is RoHS compliant. It is compatible with a wide range of pneumatic systems and is ideal for industrial automation, packaging machinery, material handling, and automotive manufacturing applications where reliable 8 mm tubing connections are required.
