Luer Connectors And Tips
A family of molded luer connectors, clamps and tips for fluid lines in infusion, sampling and instrument plumbing.
Product Overview
What This Component Is
A family of molded luer connectors, clamps and tips for fluid lines in infusion, sampling and instrument plumbing. Every part in the family comes off tooling we cut ourselves, so the taper that mates with your syringe is controlled by the same mold shop that controls the clamp beside it.
Key Benefits
- Taper detail machined rather than hand polished, so cavities match each other
- Family tooling keeps the whole connector set on one quality standard
- Clean room molded and packed when the part touches the fluid path
Molded on tooling we cut ourselves in Shenzhen. Certification covers the site doing the work: ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016.
Who It Is For
- Infusion set assemblers
- IVD instrument builders
- Device brands consolidating fitting suppliers
Problems It Solves
- Leaking tapers traced back to cavity to cavity drift
- Flash on the sealing cone that has to be removed by hand
- Three fitting suppliers with three different quality records
Application Scenarios
- Infusion line junctions and sampling ports
- Instrument fluid manifolds
- Single use tubing sets
Technical Features
How It Is Engineered
- Male and female luer geometry cut on five axis and high speed machines
- Multi cavity layouts sampled cavity by cavity before release
- Gate positions chosen so weld lines stay off the sealing surface
Materials
- Medical grade resin selected against your specification rather than substituted by us
- Customer nominated grades accepted where a device master record already fixes the material
- Colourants and additives confirmed in writing before the first sampling run

Figures above are plant and tooling capabilities recorded on our own site. Part level tolerances are confirmed against your drawing at mold flow review rather than quoted as a blanket number.
Manufacturing Process
- Mold design review
- Steel machining and EDM
- Mold trial and cavity sampling
- Clean room or conventional molding
- In process dimensional check
- Clean room packing
Quality Control
- Cavity by cavity dimensional sampling before a tool is released
- In process checks during the molding run rather than only at the end
- ERP system records the lot, tool and machine behind every shipment
Customization Options
- Cavitation sized to your annual forecast instead of a fixed standard tool
- Colour and resin grade to your specification
- Clean room packing format and labelling agreed before the first shipment
Comparison
Compared With Other Routes
| Buying fittings from a catalogue distributor | A catalogue part is whatever the distributor sourced last. A molded family from one tool shop keeps the sealing geometry and the resin the same from lot to lot. |
|---|---|
| Splitting the family across molders | When a taper stops sealing you have one plant to call, and the correction is a machine booking rather than a negotiation between two suppliers. |
Use Guide
How To Handle It
- Check the mating taper against your syringe standard at sampling, not after the first production lot
- Keep parts bagged until the assembly station to protect the sealing cone
- Store away from direct sunlight and heat sources before assembly
Questions Buyers Ask
Questions About Luer Connectors And Tips
Do you build the multi cavity tool for this family?
Yes. Mold design, steel machining, EDM and sampling all run in our own tool room in Shenzhen.
How do you prove cavity to cavity consistency?
We sample every cavity before the tool is released to production and record the results against the tool number in our ERP system.
Are parts supplied sterile?
No. Parts are molded and packed in an ISO 8 clean room and ship non sterile, so sterilisation stays with your validated process.
