Duotight 8mm to 6.35mm Reducer

Description

The Duotight 8mm to 6.35mm Reducer connects 8mm (5/16″) OD tubing or fittings to compatible 6.35mm (1/4″) connections. It provides a neat push-in solution for beverage dispensing systems without the need for hose clamps.

This reducer forms part of the Duotight Generation 2 range. As a result, it combines a secure dual O-ring sealing system with durable Polyketone (POK) construction.

Connect 8mm to 6.35mm

One side accepts an 8mm (5/16″) connection, while the other accepts a 6.35mm (1/4″) connection. Therefore, the reducer makes it easy to transition between these two common keg dispensing sizes.

For example, pair it with our NukaTap Duotight Compatible Stainless Steel Short Shank to create a push-in connection between the shank and compatible 8mm OD beverage line.

Beverage Line Options

For beverage dispensing, connect the reducer to our Beer Line 4mm ID × 8mm OD when greater flow restriction is required.

Alternatively, our Beer Line 5mm ID × 8mm OD provides another option for compatible keg dispensing systems.

Duotight Generation 2

Duotight Generation 2 fittings use two O-rings made from different materials. First, the EPDM O-ring provides excellent chemical and gas resistance. Meanwhile, the silicone O-ring remains flexible at low temperatures.

Generation 2 fittings use Polyketone (POK) instead of standard acetal. As a result, POK provides excellent chemical resistance, UV resistance and durability for brewing and beverage dispensing systems.

For the best seal, first cut the tubing cleanly and square. Then, push the tubing firmly into the fitting until it reaches the correct depth. To remove the tubing, press the collet in while pulling the line out.
