When hydraulic hose assemblies fail, it’s usually because of improper hose and fitting selection from the start. By not choosing the right hydraulic hoses and fittings, you run the risk of pressure surges, tube erosion, fluid incompatibility, abrasion or breakdown from chemical exposure. Other effects of failed hydraulic hose assembly include: Safety implications Decreased production Burns, fires…

Quick disconnect couplings provide fast and easy connection and disconnection of fluid lines in industrial equipment, machinery and tooling. Quick disconnects are used to replace existing connections that require tools to assemble or disassemble. Otherwise known as quick connect fittings or quick release couplings, high-quality quick disconnect (QD) couplings can reduce the time required for…

Failed hydraulic hose assemblies do more than slow production, they can also cause expensive equipment failure and result in catastrophic injury. Leaks alone can cause slips, trips and falls, putting your workforce at risk. What happens when it’s more than a little leak? High-pressure hoses can pierce skin; while flammable or hazardous materials can result in burns or even…

For fast and easy connection and disconnection of pneumatic lines, quick disconnect fittings are an ideal solution. Quick disconnects can be used to connect power sources like air compressors to the tool and usually consist of two parts; the coupler (female part) and the plug (male part). Within the coupler is often a valve that…
