High-alloy stainless steel pneumatic fitting. R1/2 male thread to 16mm OD tube. Features FPM seals, CRC 4 resistance, and handles -0.95 to 10 bar up to 120°C.
The Festo 162869 CRQS-1/2-16 is a premium-grade straight push-in fitting engineered for the most demanding pneumatic and fluid control environments. Constructed entirely from high-alloy stainless steel, including the housing, releasing ring, and tube retaining claw, it provides exceptional durability and a CRC 4 maximum corrosion resistance rating. The fitting features an R1/2 male thread and a push-in connection for 16 mm outer diameter tubing, utilizing a robust FPM (Fluoroelastomer) seal for leak-tight performance. It supports a broad operating pressure range of -0.95 to 10 bar for compressed air (ISO 8573-1:2010) and up to 0.6 MPa for liquid water at 50°C. With an ambient temperature tolerance of -15 °C to +120 °C and PWIS/LABS conformity (VDMA24364-B1/B2-L), this fitting is perfectly suited for harsh industrial applications, including food and beverage processing, cleanroom automation, and chemical washdown zones.

Utilized in pneumatic circuits exposed to intensive daily washdowns with aggressive chemical cleaners.
Standard brass or polymer fittings degrade quickly under harsh detergents. The CRC 4 stainless steel body and FPM seals withstand severe chemical and thermal stress up to 120°C.
Implemented in pneumatic actuation systems for cleanroom environments where material shedding is strictly prohibited.
Prevents contamination of sterile zones. The VDMA24364-B1/B2-L (PWIS-free) conformity ensures no paint-wetting impairment substances are released.
Integrated into localized high-temperature water cooling lines for welding or molding equipment.
Standard pneumatic fittings often leak or corrode when used with water. This fitting safely supports liquid water up to 0.6 MPa at 50°C without galvanic corrosion.
