• Production lines What kind of tubing can be used with push-in fittings? Push-in fittings can be used with tubing made of various materials, including clear vinyl, polyethylene, nylon and soft metals. Before installation, it's important to make sure the tube is strong enough to stand up to the stress of being gripped by the retaining claw. With more delicate tubing, hose-tail barb fittings can be used instead.
