Therefore, the usable color caps will differ between pre-change and post-change products. Please be aware of this.

How to Identify Release Buttons Before and After Change
Release button before change: no protruding mark
Release button after change: protruding mark
The release button for both the fitting/KQ2 and color cap/KQ2C after the change can be identified by the protruding mark on the left side of the SMC logo, and the release button before the change has no protruding mark.
The same identification method is used for metric size and inch size.
* Along with the change of the release button, the model of the color cap/KQ2C is changed from KQ2C-A to KQ2C-B.
