Q1: What's the difference between BF☐U and BF☐-01?
A: BF☐U uses M5×0.8; BF☐-01 uses RC1/8 (BSPT). Choose by your port spec.
Q2: Which tube materials and sizes are supported?
A: PU and nylon (PA) in 4×2.5 and 6×4. For non-standard tolerances, perform on-site pull/leak tests.
Q3: Do I need thread sealant or PTFE tape?
A: The M5 side typically seals with the rubber washer; for RC1/8, use a thin sealant or PTFE tape per site practice, keeping sealant out of the flow path.
Q4: Is it reusable?
A: Yes—inspect the rubber washer, grip teeth, and threads at each service; replace worn consumables.
Q5: How to fix minor leakage?
A: Ensure a square, burr-free cut, full insertion, and proper tightening. Treat RC threads as specified. If leakage remains, check the rubber washer, thread integrity, and tube OD.
Q6: Vacuum or higher pressure use?
A: Intended for clean, dry compressed air. For vacuum, higher pressure, or special media, verify material compatibility and proof-test first.
