A quick connector including a housing having a head portion and a body defining a central bore configured to receive a first end of a component for releasably coupling the component with the quick connector, the quick connector comprising: a latch at least partially disposed within the head portion and comprising a latch bore formed within a body of the latch, wherein the latch is moveable within the head portion between (a) a first position in which the first end of the component is restricted from passing through the latch bore and (b) a second position in which the first end of the component is allowed to pass through the latch bore; a latch indicator (48, 248) at least partially disposed within the head portion and moveable with respect to the latch to indicate when the component is coupled with the quick connector; and an actuator coupled to the latch for selectively moving the latch between the first and second positions, the actuator including an actuator face having at least first, second, and third portions, with the third portion disposed between the first and second portions; characterized by: the first and second portions defining a first cross-sectional shape and the third portion defining a second cross-sectional shape which is different than the first cross-sectional shape, the first cross-sectional shape including a convex radius of curvature with respect to a central axis of the latch bore and the second cross-sectional shape including at least a portion having a concave radius of curvature with respect to the central axis of the latch bore, wherein the third portion of the actuator face is configured to decrease a force required to move the latch between the first and second positions. a latch at least partially disposed within the head portion and comprising a latch bore formed within a body of the latch, wherein the latch is moveable within the head portion between (a) a first position in which the first end of the component is restricted from passing through the latch bore and (b) a second position in which the first end of the component is allowed to pass through the latch bore; a latch indicator (48, 248) at least partially disposed within the head portion and moveable with respect to the latch to indicate when the component is coupled with the quick connector; and an actuator coupled to the latch for selectively moving the latch between the first and second positions, the actuator including an actuator face having at least first, second, and third portions, with the third portion disposed between the first and second portions; characterized by: the first and second portions defining a first cross-sectional shape and the third portion defining a second cross-sectional shape which is different than the first cross-sectional shape, the first cross-sectional shape including a convex radius of curvature with respect to a central axis of the latch bore and the second cross-sectional shape including at least a portion having a concave radius of curvature with respect to the central axis of the latch bore, wherein the third portion of the actuator face is configured to decrease a force required to move the latch between the first and second positions.
