Question by: Steve L on Apr 11, 2025, 6:42 PM
fitting says it works with plastic tubing -- do i need any extra parts for that or does it just thread on?
Answer by: Customer Support on Apr 13, 2025, 6:22 AM
For plastic tubing, you'll want to pick up an Eaton PT230 insert along with the 2030 insert to keep everything compatible and properly supported. The fitting itself handles the compression connection, but those inserts are what hold up the tubing wall so it doesn't deform under pressure. Without them, plastic tubing can collapse at the joint over time. For copper or aluminum, no inserts are needed.
