Specialty Fittings Products
Quick and dry disconnect couplings provide a smart method of keeping fluids moving and eliminating spills or drips, which can cause significant danger to employees and harm to your equipment. Fluid handling, especially in chemical applications or for those under extreme pressure, needs to be properly managed. Use of dry and quick disconnect couplings provides an excellent safeguard for many applications.
If you have special requirements, we offer a complete fabrication service that can create the custom disconnect couplings and peripherals your business needs.
Specialty Fittings Uses & Applications
Dry link couplings can be used almost anywhere a hose is used to transfer fluids. The more critical it is to prevent a spill, the more likely you are to see one of these specialty fittings. Applications tend to revolve around fluid transfers, fluid containment and movement when the equipment itself is portable and when fluids need to be redirected.
Common applications of quick and dry disconnect couplings include:
- Acids and caustics
- Adhesives
- Ag-chemicals,
- Bulk fluid transfers
- Detergents
- Diesel exhaust fluid (DEF)
- Fatty acids
- Inks
- Lacquers
- Liquid soaps
- Paint
- Petroleum products
- Pharmaceuticals,
- Portable equipment such as pump wagons and batch reactors
- Solvents,
- Switching and redirecting fluid flow through manifolds
- Vegetable oils
And that’s just to name a few.
