Ryco Bitelok Couplings Eliminate the Need to Skive Hoses

June 3, 2014 By Michael Jermann Leave a Comment

Bitelok Coupling

Ryco Bitelok One-Piece Crimp Couplings have the ferrule already attached to the hose insert at the factory. This eliminates the possibility of selecting the wrong ferrule type when fabricating hose assemblies, which can cause failure of the assembly. Each coupling series suits specific styles of hose. The T1000, T2000, T4000, T7000 and T9000 series of […]

Holmbury P Series Couplings Minimize Risk of Hose Rupture

May 29, 2014 By Michael Jermann 1 Comment

P Series Coupling

Holmbury Push Pull Female Couplers meet the ISO 7241-1 type A design criteria and are intended for any application where the hydraulic hose could be subjected accidentally to excessive force. The design is such that when pulled, the couplings will separate automatically – in order to minimize the risk of hose line rupture or coupling […]

Holmbury HQ Series Couplings Prevent Oil Lose and Air Inclusion

May 27, 2014 By Michael Jermann Leave a Comment

HQ Series Coupling

HQ Series Couplings are designed to be used in dirty environments and where oil loss or air inclusion cannot be tolerated on connection or disconnection. The flat face feature allows the operator to clean the coupling surfaces to prevent contamination from entering the system. Typical applications include skid steer attachments, excavator hammer circuits, hydraulic hand […]

Faster WF Couplings Offer Pressure Tight Connections

May 22, 2014 By Michael Jermann Leave a Comment

Faster WF Coupling

These couplings have been designed to allow quick, safe and pressure tight connections directly into BSPP internal threads. In addition to very compact dimensions, internal shut-off valve and 35 MPa working pressure (with safety factor of at least 1:2), WF couplings can be easily connected by simply pushing the coupling into the threads and just […]
