What tubing size works with Y-Type Connecting Tube Set (Male Luer + Two Female Check Valves)?

Quick Answer

The Y-Type Connecting Tube Set (Male Luer + Two Female Check Valves) (LJG-009) is offered for common tubing sizes used in fluid transfer in IV and disposable assemblies; exact inner/outer diameters can be specified. It is molded from medical PVC. Baixin Bio customizes dimensions on request.

Definition

The term y-type connecting tube set (male luer + two female check valves) refers to a precision component within fluid transfer in IV and disposable assemblies. It defines how a fluid line connects, branches, seals or regulates, and it is molded to tight tolerances so the interface performs the same way across an entire production lot.

What separates a medical-grade part from a generic fitting is repeatability. Sealing surfaces are smooth and consistent, dimensions hold across the lot, and the resin is selected for fluid compatibility and sterilization.

To put it in context: a disposable fluid-handling device is rarely one molding. It is a chain of small components — connectors, valves, chambers, clamps, caps and tubing — assembled into a single path. Standard interfaces are what let those components come from a catalog and still fit, which is the whole reason this category of part exists.

About This Component

The Y-Type Connecting Tube Set (Male Luer + Two Female Check Valves) is supplied as a single-use molded part for fluid transfer in IV and disposable assemblies. Its interface follows standard conventions so it mates predictably with compatible components, and it is produced in medical PVC by default, with other medical-grade resins available on request.

Like all Baixin Bio components, it can be customized for material, color, dimensions, packaging and assembly. For a precise specification — exact dimensions, tolerances, sterilization validation, packaging counts and minimum order quantity — request a drawing and samples through the inquiry form.

Key Advantages

The practical advantages of y-type connecting tube set (male luer + two female check valves) cluster around safety, consistency and supply:

  • Supports OEM and ODM customization of dimensions and packaging
  • High-volume manufacturing with stable quality
  • Compatibility with common sterilization methods
  • Standardized interface that interoperates with compliant luer components
  • Leak-resistant seal that holds under normal line pressure

Taken together, these are the reasons device makers standardize on molded medical components rather than improvising connections: the part is predictable, documented and available at volume, which keeps the finished device safe and the production line moving.

Common Applications

You will find y-type connecting tube set (male luer + two female check valves) across a range of single-use fluid-handling assemblies, including:

  • Enteral feeding sets
  • Laboratory fluid handling
  • Irrigation sets
  • Disposable diagnostic devices

Across all of these uses, the underlying requirement is the same: a connection that is secure, leak-resistant and safe to make once and discard. That is why standardized, single-use molded components dominate the category — they remove variability from the most failure-prone part of a fluid path, the junction, and they let a device be assembled quickly and qualified as a unit.

How to Specify and Choose

Specifying the right part is mostly about matching a handful of variables to your assembly:

  • Color coding or opacity requirements for the assembly
  • Packaging format and order volume for the program
  • The connection standard the mating part uses (luer slip, luer lock or a specific ISO 80369 series)
  • The working pressure the junction must hold without leaking or separating
  • The fluid and its chemical compatibility with the candidate resin

With those answers in hand, a supplier can confirm a standard part or scope a custom one without back-and-forth. Sharing a drawing or a physical sample removes the remaining ambiguity.

Industry Standards

Small-bore connectors for liquids and gases are governed by the ISO 80369 family, which is progressively replacing the historical luer standard to reduce the risk of misconnection between different clinical applications. Medical-grade resins are selected and documented for biocompatibility, and finished components are sterilized by validated methods such as ethylene oxide (EO), gamma irradiation or steam autoclave depending on the material.

For medical PVC components, the practical sterilization options are EO and gamma; the choice is confirmed against the finished device and its validated process.

The reason the standards landscape moved toward ISO 80369 is patient safety: when every line used the same luer taper, it was physically possible to connect, say, an enteral line to an intravenous one. The newer series give different applications deliberately incompatible geometries so a dangerous misconnection cannot be made by accident. For a component maker, that means confirming which series an application requires before specifying a part.
