Ce dernier possède une bague à sortie brusque (48) qui entoure le conduit mâle (12) faisant partie de la canalisation qui mène au branchement, pour faciliter l'installation de l'ensemble raccord instantané-conduit mâle (10) dans un logement femelle (11) et pour indiquer de manière certaine, à l'installateur, que le conduit mâle (12) a été convenablement verrouillé dans le logement femelle (11). La bague de retenue (20) comprend deux pattes (68) facilitant sa manipulation manuelle ou à l'aide d'outils, pour la retirer. L'ensemble (10) raccord instantané est placé sur un conduit mâle (12) soit en matière plastique, soit en métal, il peut être aussi court qu'un raccord fileté, mais il n'est pas fileté et il permet au conduit (12) de tourner sur 360 degrés.
