LiteTouch
IDEX LiteTouch Fingertight Fittings
IDEX LiteTouch fittings are engineered to deliver secure, high-pressure connections with the ease of fingertight installation. Featuring a unique dual-compression gripping system, these fittings apply holding force at two contact points—providing superior tubing retention while minimizing the risk of slippage under pressure.
Unlike standard fingertight fittings, LiteTouch designs help prevent tubing twist during installation, protecting your tubing from stress and deformation. This makes them an excellent choice for precision fluidic paths where consistent flow and alignment matter.
LiteTouch fittings are available for 1/32", 1/16", and 1/8" OD tubing and compatible with 10-32 and 1/4-28 coned ports, offering flexibility across a wide range of chromatographic and instrumentation platforms.
To maintain optimal performance, the LiteTouch system is designed for use with rigid tubing materials such as stainless steel and PEEK polymer tubing. Using LiteTouch fittings on softer tubing materials may result in tubing collapse and reduced sealing integrity.
Important Note: LiteTouch ferrules are not recommended for repeated use in plastic ports, as this may compromise sealing performance over time.
Chrom Tech is an authorized distributor of IDEX fluidic components and stocks a wide range of LiteTouch fittings and ferrules for fast shipment and expert application support.
