Vacuum Connector

Love 'em!Easy to deal with, inexpensive, and easy to remove dried epoxy if needed. I would advise deburring around the edges so it can't hurt your bagging material.

Product was as described. I removed mold parting flash for a better seal.

This fitting is easy to use as a reliable no leak vacuum fitting. Its also easy to clean should you get resin sucked into it.

These are great once they've been de-flashed. The parting lines from the injection molding tool used are pretty sharp and poorly trimmed, especially on the area where they contact the bagging film. One of mine did pierce bagging film, so I took them all over to my lathe and spun them down to a smooth contact area, then rounded off the sharp edges which are all around the perimeter. After that, they're really good at the vacuum end of things, although I'm using a bead of waste butyl tape from previous runs to go around the edge where the bag is pierced, just to be 100% sure!Well worth the money for such a specialized item, but a bit of elbow grease makes them even better.

Have not used yet but will soon. Looks like it will do great for my projects.Thanks
