The seal provides a sealing function to an open end of the connector. The male fitting is made of medical grade materials and includes a male connector fluidly coupled to a first line. The female fitting is made of medical grade materials and including a female connector fluidly coupled to a second line and configured to mate with the male connector. The seal is made of a medical grade polymer coupled to one or both the male fitting and the female fitting.
