FAQ

What is the maximum operating pressure for this Simatec 290.1003 fitting?
The Simatec datasheet specifies a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar (145 psi) for this rotary elbow, which is suitable for most standard simalube lubrication systems.

Can this fitting be used with any type of 8mm tubing?
This fitting is designed for use with standard 8mm outer diameter (OD) plastic tubing, such as polyamide (PA) or polyurethane (PU). Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely for a secure, leak-proof connection.

Is this fitting suitable for applications with continuous high-speed rotation?
While the 290.1003 allows for 360-degree rotation, it is intended for slow-rotating applications typical of automatic lubrication points. For continuous high-speed rotation, a dedicated rotary union or a different type of connector may be required.
