Product Description
For tubing outside diameter of 6 mm (SKU FESTO-QST-6-100, model code QST-6-100) is a Festo push-in T-connector. One compressed-air supply goes in and branches into two lines.
Where it fits
Pneumatic installations and automation equipment are the stated applications. If a job calls for one 6 mm supply tube to feed two outlets, this connector makes that branch at a single point in the tube run.

Fitting and later changes
The push-in connections and blue release rings make tube fitting and removal straightforward. That helps when a line has to be altered after the first fix, because tubes can be released at the ring rather than cut out.
