- High Unit Price: Imported connectors often exceed $12 each, inflating OPEX.
- Leak‑Prone Designs: 32% of field reports cite seal failures after 2,000 cycles.
- Long Lead Times: Standard 6‑8 weeks from overseas factories disrupt just‑in‑time (JIT) schedules.
- Limited Customization: Generic parts cannot match unique pressure ratings or material‑compatibility needs.
- Regulatory Gaps: Lack of CE, UL, or RoHS certifications creates compliance risk for U.S. distributors.
