F SERIES
Connect under pressure high flow couplings with a safety locking sleeve
Holmbury’s F Series high flow safety couplings offer three important benefits; high flow, connection under pressure and a safety locking mechanism to prevent accidental disconnection.
FEATURES
- High flow rates
- Optional pressure eliminator allows connection with residual pressure in the hydraulic circuit (Not applicable for size 06)
- Low pressure drop characteristics
- Safety locking ring to avoid accidental disconnection
- Female half has double ‘O’ ring sealing arrangement
- Bidirectional flow
CONSTRUCTION
- Carbon steel with zinc nickel plating (1200 hours with no red rust in salt spray tests)
- Fitted with Nitrile seals
- Also available in stainless steel (see FS Series)
ACCESSORIES
- Dust caps, plugs and seal kits are available for the F Series
APPLICATIONS
- Mobile plant
- General industrial
- Forestry equipment
AVAILABLE SEALS AND TEMPERATURE RANGE
All carbon steel products have Nitrile Butadiene Rubber seals fitted as standard. All stainless steel products have Fluoro-elastomer Rubber (Viton®) seals fitted as standard. Special seal materials available on request.
