A fluid connector for securing a length of flexible tubing to a barbed fluid fitting is disclosed. The flexible tubing extends along a longitudinal direction. The fluid connector includes a single piece clamping body have a plurality of generally cylindrical clamping members spaced apart along the longitudinal direction, and a clasp. The clamping body defines a circumferential opening, and is flexed to further open the circumferential opening and receive the length of the flexible tubing over the barbed fluid fitting within the clamping body. The clasp closes the clamping body by closing the circumferential opening after the length of the flexible tubing over the barbed fluid fitting is received within the clamping body to form a fluid tight connection between the flexible tubing and the barbed fluid fitting. A fluid system including the length of flexible tubing, the barbed fluid fitting, and the fluid connector is also disclosed.

A surface well fracturing system having fluid conduits connected to surface fracturing equipment with quick connect systems is provided. In one embodiment, a fracturing system includes a frac pump, a frac supply manifold, and a fracturing fluid conduit connected to route fracturing fluid between the frac pump and the frac supply manifold. The fracturing fluid conduit is connected to the frac pump or to the frac supply manifold by a quick connect apparatus, which includes a segmented clamp having multiple clamp segments mounted on a shared support. Additional systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.

A fluid connector includes first and second clamping arms coupled together for movement between an open condition and a closed, clamping condition for clamping an end of a length of flexible tubing to a fluid fitting. The first and second clamping arms each have a curved interior surface and at least one barb on each curved interior surface. The barbs are configured to engage the exterior surface of the flexible tubing when the first and second clamping arms are in the closed, clamping condition to form a fluid tight connection between the fluid fitting and the flexible tubing. A fluid system and method of fluid connection using the fluid connector are also disclosed.
