Standard couplings
PMC12
PMC12 is the polypropylene version of the CPC 1/8" couplings, sealed with EPDM. It offers largely the same configurations as acetal PMC but adds chemical resistance and can be gamma sterilized. The couplings work from vacuum to 8.3 bar at 0 to 71 °C and mate with acetal PMC parts.

How to choose PMC12
What matters when choosing: properties, comparison and typical applications.
Selection criteria
| Criterion | Available | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Body material | Polypropylene, POM (acetal) | Polypropylene for harsher media and sterilization. |
| Seal | EPDM | Not suitable for oils and fuels. |
| Pressure | Vacuum to 8.3 bar | Works on suction lines too. |
| Temperature | 0 to 71 °C | Below 0 °C, use the acetal PMC series. |
| Termination size | 1/16", 1/8", 5/32", 1/4", 5/16" | Small tubing sizes for instruments and labs. |
| Termination type | NPT and BSPT thread, hose barb, PTF, 1/4-28, SAE | Integral terminations remove adapters. |
Frequently asked questions
- How does PMC12 differ from PMC?
- In the material: polypropylene with EPDM instead of acetal with NBR. PMC12 is more chemically resistant and gamma sterilizable, while PMC covers the wider temperature range.
- Can PMC12 be combined with PMC?
- Yes, the two series are intermateable, so body and insert can be made of different materials.
- Can PMC12 be sterilized?
- Yes, the polypropylene parts are gamma sterilizable.
- What pressure and temperature limits apply?
- From vacuum to 8.3 bar at 0 to 71 °C.
