12 September 2013

John Guest has released a simple and cost effective way of incorporating push-fit connections into a wide range of original equipment.

With a heritage of over 50 years John Guest have gained worldwide recognition as a global leader in the manufacturing of engineering push-fit solutions designed to meet a variety of needs for both production companies and design studios.

The John Guest push-fit cartridge system is an OEM product that can be applied by designers to both volumetric and bespoke products for use in plumbing, drinks & food, pure water, air control, fibre optic connections, chemical delivery, automotive and white goods systems - applied to meet the standards of both domestic European and international markets.

Cartridges are effective means for designers to incorporate a push-fit port into their product – albeit a custom housing or manifold arrangement. The great feature of cartridges is that they can be applied in a 3D – 360 degree orientation which means that pipe connection and lie can be designed to fit very tight space envelopes. The cartridge requires a compact 3-core section to be moulded or machined – this then allows the cartridge to be pushed into place manually or by using automatic assembly equipment. John Guest cartridges are currently available in metric and imperial sizes ranging from 3/16inch to 1/2inch and 3mm to 22mm.
