Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What hose sizes is this quick disconnect fitting compatible with?
A: This L-Series quick disconnect coupler is designed to fit hose barb sizes of 5/16" and 3/8", with a nipple hose inner diameter of approximately 3mm. Always verify your hose inner diameter before purchasing to ensure a secure, leak-free fit.
Q: Does the valve automatically stop flow when disconnected?
A: Yes. The built-in shut-off valve is a key feature of this L-Series coupling. When the connector is disconnected, the valve automatically closes to stop fluid flow, preventing spills and minimising fluid loss during line changes or maintenance.
Q: What materials are used in the seal and spring?
A: The coupler uses a high-quality EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber seal for excellent temperature and chemical resistance, and a SUS316 stainless steel valve core spring for superior corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability.
Q: Is this fitting suitable for fuel, water, or coolant lines?
A: This fitting is designed for general fluid transfer applications. The EPDM seal offers compatibility with water, coolant, and many common fluids. For fuel or chemical applications, always verify fluid compatibility with EPDM and alloy materials before installation.
