Screw-fit connector SCHAERER Spare Parts 3340193000

A screw-fit connector joins two sections of beverage line with a threaded collar that pulls the faces together. The 6-G1/8 thread is a standardised metric pipe thread used across commercial coffee, water and syrup dispensers. As the collar tightens, an O-ring or flat seal between the faces compresses, blocking leaks under pressure. This method gives a rigid, vibration-resistant joint that can be opened and resealed without tools beyond a spanner.

The operator aligns the two ends, slides the collar over one side, then screws it onto the mating thread until the seal is fully compressed. No additional clamps or clips are needed. When the line is depressurised, the collar can be unscrewed by hand or with a spanner, allowing the connector to be moved or cleaned.

The connector is moulded in PPSU, a high-performance plastic that withstands repeated thermal cycling, chemical cleaning agents and the pressures typical of hot beverage systems. The material is food-safe, transparent to allow visual inspection of flow, and does not absorb flavours or odours.

Thread size 6-G1/8 determines which equipment the connector fits: it matches the outlet and inlet ports on SCHAERER beverage machines and compatible third-party units that follow the same metric standard.

Cleaning involves unscrewing the collar, removing any old seal, rinsing the parts in warm water with approved detergent, and reassembling with a new O-ring if the original shows wear.
