SS Claw Couplings are engineered for tough working environments where quick, reliable hose connections are required under varying pressures and temperatures. Manufactured from hardened forged steel with a zinc plated and yellow passivated finish (Chrome VI free), these couplings provide excellent durability and surface protection against wear and corrosion.
Their robust design and quick-release claw mechanism make them well suited for a wide range of industrial, construction, and agricultural applications where hoses need to be connected and disconnected frequently without compromising safety or sealing performance.
Key Features & Benefits
Material & Durability
Forged steel, hardened, zinc plated and yellow passivated (free of chrome VI)
Working Pressure
Rated to 12 bar, these fittings are suitable for many applications
Sealing
Incorporates NBR seals to maintain a tight seal under pressure and prevent leaks
Quick-Release Action
Claw or "Geka-Style" arms allow rapid connection and disconnection without threading, reducing downtime
Versatility of Connections
Available in hose tails, male & female threaded options to suit different installations
Applications & Suitability
Water & Fluid Transfer
Commonly used in washdown operations, water supply lines, irrigation systems, and portable pump connections. The plated finish ensures dependable performance and resistance to surface oxidation, even with repeated outdoor exposure.
Compressed Air Lines
Frequently used on construction sites, in factories, and in workshops for connecting pneumatic hoses and tools. The SS profile claws allow secure coupling and rapid disconnection without tools, helping to reduce downtime and increase operational efficiency.
Fuel & Oil Transfer
When used with compatible NBR or Viton seals, these couplings are suitable for transferring oils, lubricants, and fuels. Their forged steel construction resists mechanical stress and prevents thread deformation during high-pressure operation.
Agricultural & Construction Site Work
Widely used in field irrigation, slurry transfer, concrete spraying, dewatering, and other site-based systems. The toughened surface finish offers protection against impact and abrasion, extending service life in demanding environments.
Chemical & General Fluid Handling
Suitable for the conveyance of non-aggressive chemicals and process fluids in manufacturing and maintenance operations. The plated coating enhances corrosion protection while maintaining the mechanical integrity of the fitting.
