Couplings designed for reliability at low cost
Robust design features combined with low cost on the latest Hoke HQC Quick Couplers now available from Circor Instrumentation include multiple backup O-rings for leak-tight sealing.
Hoke's Gyrolok nut and ferrule system provides leak-tight end connections, while guides align valves exactly to the coupling's valve seat to prevent the chance of leakage in a disconnected mode.
Offered in 316 stainless steel or brass from 1/8 to 1/2in (6 to 12mm) and available with keyed sleeves interchangeable with Swagelok and Parker components of the same style, the couplers meet ANSI B93.5 and ISO 7241-1/-2 requirements.
Body and plug assemblies are numbered and colour-coded for positive identification.
The couplers will only fit mating keyed components due to a mechanical interlocking system, preventing accidental mixing of fluid or pressure lines.
