From the manufacturer:
The corrosion-resistant stainless steel gripping teeth in the collets of this fitting allow for close interlocking with multiple materials, eliminating the need for special tools. Unlike barb fittings, this product joins tubing on the outside to boost flow capacity. The patented O-ring guide ensures zero-leak connections by correctly aligning tubing, protecting the O-ring from damage and boosting side load capacity.
