Pneumatics Product Page

WestCoast Products offers two types of pneumatic fittings to provide a lightweight, simple solution when designing robots. All of these fittings have a lightweight plastic body. The NPT threads are made from a nickel plated brass and come with thread sealer pre-applied. This is great for teams since they won’t have to struggle to apply Teflon tape the first time they use a fitting.
