Male & Female Luers
Connectors, Adapters, and Accessories
Nordson MEDICAL offers designers worldwide the broadest selection of male luer and female luer fittings and connectors, luer adapters and luer accessories. Over 120 separate configurations are offered in nylon, polypropylene, polycarbonate and PVDF, with many color and special material options available from stock or upon special order. Our Value Plastics line of male and female luers are available with tubing connections that fit many tubing materials ranging from 1/16" (1.6 mm) to 1/4" (6.4 mm) IDs, with threaded ends and panel mount versions also available.
Luer-Lock Connectors
Female Fittings
Luer-lock connectors (female) are joined by means of a tabbed hub on the female fitting that screws into threads in a sleeve on the male fitting and attaches securely. Male luer lock connectors are available with integral lock rings or with rotatable features to allow you to position the tubing before assembly. This locking mechanism is used for applications that require a secure connection.
Luer Slips
Threadless Fittings
Luer-slip connectors simply conform to luer taper dimensions and are pressed together and held by friction (they have no threads). This mechanism is used for applications such as priming and flushing.
Luer Tapers
Make Secure Connctions
The 6% tapered cone luer standard, developed in 1896, remains a global standard for medical devices and laboratory instruments due to its reliability and cost-effectiveness. Nordson MEDICAL's Value Plastics line of luer fittings are integral to this standardized system, offering secure leak-proof connections for both gas and fluid applications, with special attention to eliminating parting lines (on luer fittings featuring a barb) for leak-free tubing unions.
Male Luer Valves
Part of the Halkey-Roberts Line of Valves
The Halkey-Roberts line of male luer valves (MLV) offers high-performance, leak-free solutions for flushing, drainage, IV therapy, and home healthcare. Available with tube ends, barbs, or female luer locks, each MLV is designed for seamless integration into medical sets and provides reliable access to female luer connectors or luer-activated valves. These valves feature a high-flow design that eliminates the need for clamping, while their gamma-resistant, ISO 10993-compliant materials are DEHP-free and not made with natural rubber latex.
These male luer valves are ideal for flushing and drainage applications, IV solutions, and home healthcare. The MLV is designed to attach directly to tubing during their set assembly. The valves can be used to access a mating female luer connector or luer activated valve.
