The barb at the top of the Vapor Pin® connects to ¼-inch sample tubing (typically Nylon or Teflon®) with softer tubing, preferably Tygon®. Because stainless steel is more durable than brass and more corrosion resistant, we recommend stainless steel for long-term installations and in corrosive environments. Brass Vapor Pins® are less durable than stainless steel, but they can be reused repeatedly with proper care. We recommend brass Vapor Pins® for short-term installations, especially those installed in the stick-up configuration.
Total length 3 1/2". Top barbed fitting is quarter inch in diameter.
This item can not be installed without the Installation/Extraction Tool or Silicone Sleeves. and the protective white caps.

I have had the opportunity to use these vapor pins on several vapor intrusion projects recently and cannot say enough good things about this technology!! One such project included numerous residential and commercial properties that are part of the Brownfield Cleanup Program. Of the literally hundreds of pins we installed, we only needed to provide additional help getting a tight seal (i.e. plumber’s wax) on TWO of them (and these were in residential crawl spaces with barely a 2” slab). The time (and subsequent money) my company has saved, make taking the jump into purchasing your own comprehensive kit SO worth it!! The customer service is also stellar (i.e. i called last week in need of 30 extra pins by the end of business the next day and they pulled it off without a hitch). FANTASTIC product, company and people. I recommend them to everyone and will only use them on my projects from now on.
