Stainless Steel Quick Couplers for Corrosion Resistance

Hydraulic quick couplers are an integral part of any hydraulic system, providing optimum flow and control of hydraulic fluid.  Quick couplers help to control pressure in the lines and maintain hydraulic circuits.  This is especially important in applications subjected to corrosive materials and fluids. 

 

Stainless steel provides high resistance to corrosion in many applications where hydraulic circuits and connections are exposed to a corrosive environment.  Stainless steel quick couplers and hydraulic adapters provide many benefits to a number of applications such as:

●       Oil and gas excavation and exploration

●       Chemical processing

●       Agricultural equipment

●       Industrial and manufacturing

●       Offshore and marine applications

Using a stainless steel grade with a high carbon content such as 316 SS is ideal in many corrosive environments.   316 SS contains a higher grade of carbon and nickel chromium content compared to 304 SS, providing resistance up to 1600° F.  An experienced quick coupler specialist can help you to choose the right hydraulic couplings made of the optimum material for your application.
