At least a portion of the opposing mating surfaces may be transverse to the axis. The headgear comprises an interface input tube and the first magnetic coupling member is connected to the interface input tube. The second magnetic coupling member is connected to a gas delivery tube that defines at least part of the fluid circuit. The second magnetic coupling member may be separated from the first magnetic coupling member through the application of an axial pull force. The second magnetic coupling member may also be separated from the first magnetic coupling member through a torque created by the application of a force orthogonal to the axis to the second magnetic coupling member.
