Hydraulic quick couplers provide quick and easy connection and
disconnection of hydraulic fluid lines while providing optimum fluid control
and preventing leaks. Hydraulic quick couplers are used in a multitude of
industries and applications both stationary and mobile such as:
- Construction
- Agricultural
- Industrial
- Mobile equipment
- Skid steer equipment
- Oil and gas industry
Hydraulic fittings aid these industrial applications and many
others by simplifying quick connect and quick release processes to improve
serviceability and performance. Hydraulic quick coupler suppliers that provide
custom designed quick connect solutions provide value to OEMs large and small.
Quick coupler solutions designed to your specifications improve performance,
safety and efficiency.
There are several factors to consider when choosing or designing
custom hydraulic fittings. Be sure to discuss the following
considerations with your hydraulic quick coupler
supplier:
Temperature compatibility - the operation temperature of your application is an important
consideration to ensure that your hydraulic fitting material provides optimum
performance.
Maximum service pressure - hydraulic fitting engineers must know the pressure limitations and
flow performance required of equipment to determine the optimum hydraulic quick
coupler solution.
Type of hose - the type of tubing or hose will connect to the hydraulic fittings
is an important factor in designing the best hydraulic solution.
Material selection – the type of material that your hydraulic quick coupler is
manufactured with is a critical consideration as all materials must be
compatible with the working fluid. Stainless steel, carbon steel, 316
stainless steel and various surface options such as zinc plating and QPQ
plating are some quick coupler material options to achieve maximum corrosion
resistance and fluid control depending upon the application.
Multi-coupling
requirements - multiple hydraulic
lines may be combined onto a multi-coupler plate to simultaneously couple or
uncouple multiple lines at once. Multi-coupler plates are proven to significantly increase
efficiency, productivity and safety where multiple or large diameter lines are
used.
Shutoff mechanism - an important factor is whether a shut off
mechanism is required. Some processes to utilize a shut off mechanism to
maximize flow capacity.
One handed operation -
specify whether the
quick connect or disconnect with one hand is required.
