FEM quick couplings for working pressures up to 350 bar
Parker Hannifin has launched the new optimized FEM Quick Coupling Series which offers an increased working pressure up to 350 bar and a decreased pressure drop for better flow properties. The revised and updated FEM and FEC series have profiles corresponding to ISO 16028 and exceed the technical requirements in the ISO 16028 specifications. They […]
Parker’s High Performance Flange System gains new certification for marine applications
Parker Hannifin has announced that its mechanical flange system for machines and plants (with working pressures of up to 420 bar) — “HPF – Parker High Performance Flange System” — has gained DNV GL approval for marine applications. The DGUV approval certifies the use of Parker’s HPF in hydraulic systems for injection moulding machinery as […]
Making quick, safe connections at sea with non-weld flange systems
Using non-welded flange systems, such as Parker’s High Performance Flange connectors, reduces errors and saves hours on installation in mission-critical marine applications. Hydraulic high-pressure connections in the marine market must withstand harsh conditions, vibrations and other environmental impacts. Traditional welded connections do not always withstand these rigorous demands, and often require time-consuming and costly post-welding pipe […]
Flat-face couplings couplings prevent fluid leaks and protect the environment
Parker Hannifin has expanded its flat-face couplings offering with the SCFF series. This series of couplings offers users a number of benefits ranging from low-leakage decoupling to the avoidance of air entrapment during coupling. The couplings, which are tested in accordance with ISO 7241-2, are easy to clean and very flat. Whether being used in mobile […]
GlobalCore 187 high performance hydraulic hose released
Parker Hannifin has introduced the 187 Hose, a 7MPa / 1,000 psi constant working pressure hose. 187 Hose is designed to provide maximum performance, flexibility, and hose life in demanding hydraulic applications across a variety of markets. As the only 1,000 psi constant working pressure hose on the market, 187 Hose is a revolutionary product […]
Parker’s ToughJacket hose is designed for construction industry, tough applications
With a 4,000 psi constant working pressure, the Parflex 594TJ (ToughJacket) hose is a cost effective hydraulic hose solution for the construction industry, especiallyfor those working with telescoping boom applications requiring a durable and light weight bonded assembly solution. The 594TJ hose can be provided in bonded twin-line and multi-line (up to ten hoses or 10-in. wide) […]
Parker launches blowout preventer hydraulic hoses
A line of blowout preventer hydraulic hoses was unveiled by Parker Hannifin at OTC last month. Designed for use topside, offshore and inland for oil and gas, these BOP hoses meet the API16D flame test and Lloyd’s Register 1499 test, said Michael Clark, business development manager for Parker Hannifin’s Fluid Connectors Group. They are available […]
Parker presents hose and classification system for easier selection
Parker Hannifin has introduced a new system of three hose classifications: Good – Better – Best. The classification aims to simplify the selection of appropriate hose for different applications. The classification “Good” includes the newly developed medium pressure BCH1 und BCH2 hoses, combined with the series 16 fittings. This new fitting series has been developed […]
Parker’s TOUGHJacket hoses offer more abrasion resistance
Parker Hannifin has expanded the Parflex hydraulic hose line with the introduction of a family of TOUGHJacket hydraulic hoses, designed to withstand the strains of large-scale, heavy-duty applications. The new hoses, featuring special Parker-formulated polyurethane jackets to meet industry requirements for mega/super tough abrasion resistance, exceed the abrasion resistance and durability of super enhanced rubbers […]
