Expert Insight:
The 216-278JKNF follows the SEFA (Scientific Equipment and Furniture Association) color-coding standard, where orange signifies compressed air. Installation Tip: These buttons are designed for a "permanent" feel to prevent tampering. To install, simply align the tabs and press firmly with your thumb until you hear a click. Pro Tip: In many lab inspections, having mismatched or missing index buttons can result in a safety citation. If you are converting a water faucet to an air service, or if your current orange buttons have become pitted from chemical exposure, replacing them with these OEM buttons is the fastest way to ensure your facility remains up to code. Unlike generic stickers, these plastic inserts won't peel off when hit with pressurized air or cleaning sprays.
