These luer fittings come in many configurations and several materials, joining tubing from 1/16” (1.6 mm) ID to 1/4” (6.4 mm) ID. The integral lock ring is a built-in mechanism that provides a secure connection to the female luer to prevent accidental disconnection and stop leakage or contamination. The 500 series barb is composed of blended radii giving it a distinct look. Each barb is designed to accommodate a range of tube sizes and tube types. Consideration should be given to flow restriction, pressure capability, and the force required for assembly of the tube. Because the fittings are made to ISO standards that are well understood globally, it ensures proper interconnections and often removes the need to retrofit*.

Options include nylon or polypropylene resin.

Common features of nylon include a high mechanical strength, great balance of stiffness and toughness, good performance at high temperatures, good electrical and flammability properties, and resistance against abrasion or chemicals. It can be sterilized using gamma radiation, Ethylene oxide (EtO), or autoclave.

Polypropylene is clarified and produced without any animal derived components or phthalates. It can be sterilized using gamma radiation, Ethylene oxide (EtO), E-beam, or autoclave.
