Abstract
A connector having a body with a through-way open at one end. A shoulder in the through-way faces the open end and supports an O-ring. A cap is fitted to an open end of the body and extends from the open end toward the opposite end. The cap is a different color than the body. A gripping ring in the cap has inwardly facing teeth to grip a tube in the through-way to prevent the tube from being pulled out of the open end of the connection during use. A locking ring is fitted over the open end of the body and cap. The locking ring is rotatable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking ring has a window that lines up with the body in one of the locked and unlock positions and the cap in the other of the locked and unlocked positions.
