The VLS Series Heavy-Duty Screw Coupler is a durable product using heavy duty poppet style valves for the sealing mechanism and threads as the mechanical connection. The VLS series couplings feature a particularly rugged design, making them particularly well suited for heavy-duty service conditions, including construction equipment used in extreme off-highway conditions.
Screw-on system interchangeable with German market couplings
Internal components designed to reduce turbulence and handle impulse applications
Zinc plated steel coupling body with zinc plated hardened steel nipple
Nitrile seals and Teflon anti-extrusion rings
Available in two sizes: 1/2 and 1 inch
APPLICATIONS
Particularly well suited for heavy-duty service conditions
Off-highway applications, especially in construction equipment under extreme conditions
Wherever turbulence must be reduced and impulses must be managed

* Connect torque and disconnect torque without residual pressure. Torque will increase with residual pressure.
** Spillage is an indicative value of the fluid loss per couple-uncouple cycle without residual pressure.
The VEPHDL Series Heavy-Duty Locking Flat Face Coupler is the ultimate failsafe solution for the most demanding hydraulic applications. This locking female version is interchangeable with standard VEPHD series flat face thread-to-connect heavy duty couplers and features a visual connection indicator for foolproof connection, every time.
The Agriculture IR Series Hydraulic Quick Couplings offer automatic shut-off during disconnection. The IR features a variety of connection mechanisms: ball (IR), poppet (IRV), push pull (IRS) or push pull sleeve connectable under residual pressure (IRS PC). Poppet or flat-face are recommended for new applications.
The GR Series of Multi-Coupling Plates allows the simultaneous couple and uncouple of two to ten hydraulic and/or electrical lines with a single, simple movement requiring very little force. The circuit lines can all have the same nominal coupler diameter and different media or different size couplers. A dust cap is supplied, and options include: an electrical connector for low voltage requirements and a parking station.
The IRB Series Quick Couplings are interchangeable to ISO B standard (ISO 7241-B). The IRB is offered in three different high quality materials to meet different application challenges—IRB carbon steel with Nitrile seals, IRBO brass with Viton seals, and IRBX 316 stainless steel with Viton seals. The entire series features compact design, AISI 302 stainless steel springs, and PTFE anti-extrusion rings.
