The quick connect fitting RQG1-M, type AD34,5-M32, from Flexa is a one-piece, straight plastic fitting for ROHRflex Wells hoses. It features a metric external thread and is designed with a conical sealing system, ensuring a secure and tight connection. The product is made of polyamide (PA) and is available in black; a grey variant is also available. The fitting is designed for use in industrial and technical installations where reliable cable and hose routing is required.

Applications
This quick connect fitting is particularly suitable for securing ROHRflex Wells hoses in installations exposed to high mechanical and chemical stresses. It is commonly used in electrical and automation technology, manufacturing industry, and marine technology. Certifications according to EN/IEC 61386-23, UL 1696, CSA 22.2, NFPA 130, and Lloyds Register of Shipping confirm its suitability for demanding operating conditions, including marine applications. The fitting is also suitable for use in environments with increased requirements for fire protection and safety standards, such as in firefighting technology (Ghost certification).

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The fitting is designed as a one-piece construction, enabling simple installation and maintenance. The conical sealing principle ensures a tight connection without additional sealing elements. The surface is silicone-, cadmium-, and halogen-free, increasing compatibility with sensitive electrical and electronic components. Resistance to oil, gasoline, acids, and solvents makes the fitting suitable for chemically aggressive environments. The black color is standard, while a grey version is also available.

Technology Explained Simply
The fitting is made of polyamide (PA), a robust plastic offering high mechanical strength and resistance to wear. The protection class IP 66 ensures dust-tight and water-tight performance, even under heavy spray, enabling use in outdoor or humid environments. The temperature range of -40 °C to +120 °C allows use in extreme climatic conditions. The conical sealing ensures that the fitting maintains a tight connection even under vibrations and movements, without requiring additional seals.

Compatibility and Accessories
The quick connect fitting is specifically designed for ROHRflex Wells hoses. Various accessories are available to facilitate installation and adaptation to different requirements. These include thread reducers (e.g. REK-M M32/M25), thread extenders (e.g. EWK-M M32/M40), mounting brackets (e.g. BW-M M32), flat gaskets (e.g. FR-M M32), and locknuts (e.g. GM-M M32). These components allow flexible adaptation to different thread sizes and mounting conditions. The use of EMC-protected locknuts (e.g. GME-M M32) is possible to ensure electromagnetic compatibility.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply screwing into the corresponding thread. The one-piece construction requires no additional seals or mounting aids. The fitting can be installed using an appropriate wrench or torque wrench, observing the specified torque values to ensure a secure connection. The use of mounting brackets (e.g. BW-M M32) enables secure mounting to walls or frames.

Operational Advantages
The quick connect fitting offers high reliability and durability in demanding environments. Resistance to chemical influences and high mechanical strength ensure a long service life. Simple installation and maintenance reduce labor effort. Certifications according to international standards guarantee suitability for use in various industries, including marine technology and firefighting technology. The IP 66 protection class enables use in humid and dusty environments without impairing functionality.
