Can you tell us how they differ from other fittings on the market?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jiffy-tite Quick Connect fluid fittings eliminate failures in plumbing.\u00a0 We do not thread our fittings together like the traditional AN fittings on the market.\u00a0 Jiffy-tite connectors are all quick-connect which makes plumbing safer, faster and easier.\u00a0 No tools needed when using Jiffy-tite connectors so you will never strip, cross-thread, over tighten or forget to tighten.\u00a0 We also offer valved technology so when you disconnect our connectors no fluid will leak out of either end, making them one of the safest connectors on the market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Can you elaborate on how the different products are applicable for different elements of the racing and performance engines?<\/strong><br \/>\nJiffy-tite Quick-Connect Fluid Fittings come standard with valves. We suggest using valved connectors where you disconnect most frequently. In those areas you are not worried about fluid loss, Jiffy-tite\u2019s Pro Compact series product is the perfect choice in those smaller spaces where valved technology is not required.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"18629\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/five-more-questions-with-jiffy-tite\/reuseable-nut-socket_male-an-plug-horizontal\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Reuseable-Nut-socket_Male-AN-Plug-horizontal.png\" data-orig-size=\"2100,880\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Reuseable Nut socket_Male AN Plug &amp;#8211; horizontal\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Reuseable-Nut-socket_Male-AN-Plug-horizontal-300x126.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Reuseable-Nut-socket_Male-AN-Plug-horizontal-1024x429.png\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-18629\" src=\"http:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Reuseable-Nut-socket_Male-AN-Plug-horizontal-1024x429.png\" alt=\"Jiffy-Tite Quick Connect Fitting\" width=\"638\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Reuseable-Nut-socket_Male-AN-Plug-horizontal-1024x429.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Reuseable-Nut-socket_Male-AN-Plug-horizontal-300x126.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>3.What do you think people need to know about Jiffy-Tite&#8217;s fittings that they don&#8217;t know?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The most important thing people need to be aware of is the different seals we offer.\u00a0 There are three different seals; FKM Fluorocarbon, Buna N and EPDM.\u00a0 With these three different seals we are able to accommodate just about all fluids.\u00a0 The seals come in different colors so they can be easily identified.\u00a0 You can go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jiffy-titemotorsports.com\/\">www.jiffy-titemotorsports.com<\/a> for the seal compatibility chart.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. What&#8217;s the best way you can think of to demonstrate why these products work for racers and enthusiasts? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Basically, why should they switch from what they&#8217;re using to use a Jiffy-tite connector?<br \/>\nThe reason for switching from a traditional AN fitting to a Jiffy-tite Quick-Connect fittings is because you will never need to replace a Jiffy-tite connectors.\u00a0 No tools means no failures and these connectors will look like new for year because you never need to use wrenches.\u00a0 This product is simpler, safer and faster which makes everyone excited.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Can you give me an example of a driver or racer who switched over to using Jiffy-tite products and why that happened?<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nThere are many racers and teams who have made the switch to Jiffy-tite.\u00a0 The reason was due to issues using the standard AN style fittings.\u00a0 During a race, the racer and their teams cannot afford to have a fitting loosen up, or gall on them causing a failure.\u00a0 Jiffy-tite is engineered to perform.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"18627\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/five-more-questions-with-jiffy-tite\/gold-reuse-nut-feature\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Gold-Reuse-Nut-Feature.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"619,343\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Gold Reuse Nut Feature\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Gold-Reuse-Nut-Feature-300x166.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Gold-Reuse-Nut-Feature.jpg\" class=\" size-full wp-image-18627 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Gold-Reuse-Nut-Feature.jpg\" alt=\"Gold Reuse Nut Feature\" width=\"619\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Gold-Reuse-Nut-Feature.jpg 619w, https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Gold-Reuse-Nut-Feature-300x166.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 619px) 100vw, 619px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>&nbsp; We always love the chance to check in with Jiffy-tite Motorsports to share information on these products with racers and performance minded enthusiasts. \u00a0We <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/five-more-questions-with-jiffy-tite\/\" title=\"Five More Questions with Jiffy-tite\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":18627,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3465,3470,1064],"tags":[3474,521,2872,3475],"class_list":["post-18620","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-drag-racing","category-news","category-product-news-releases","tag-fittings","tag-jiffy-tite","tag-quick-release-fittings","tag-race-and-performance-products"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Gold-Reuse-Nut-Feature.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p42YSK-4Qk","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18620","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18620"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18620\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19135,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18620\/revisions\/19135"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18627"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18620"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18620"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.racingjunk.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18620"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
