ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a quick connect type of tube connector which engages the outside diameter of the tube with a self-locking capability and which increases its gripping action on the tube by fluid pressure developed behind a piston in a chamber housing the piston and having seals between the piston and chamber and between the tube and an axially slidable member applying initial gripping action on the tube.
