For hydrostatic drives in construction and agricultural machines, I. C.-engines and hydraulic pumps are directly coupled. Both units are connected by a flange coupling. This connection must meet a number of requirements — although primarily it must transmit the power reliably, enabling the machine to perform the pending operations as requested. This is done via […]
Holmbury couplers make simultaneous hydraulic connections
The MP series of multiplate couplers from Holmbury, Eastlake, Ohio, lets users simultaneously connect multiple hydraulic lines. The MP Series inherits the benefits of Holmbury’s flat-face coupler design. The product is currently available with a 4- or 6-port design. The devices feature connect-under-pressure male couplers that permit bidirectional flow. The couplers are circlip mounted and […]
Block coupler makes quick work of attachment change-out
Operator safety and failing hydraulic systems have led to a new decompression block coupler from Holmbury. The HDB is designed for the quick change of hydraulic attachments for skid steer, compact and backhoe loaders—as well as compact utility vehicles. The decompression feature allows the operator to alleviate trapped pressure allowing for quick and easy connection […]

Kurt Hydraulics line of 6W couplings combined with high pressure braided hose are ideally suited for applications that require high pressure capabilities and temperature ranges from -40° to 250° F for the Oil, Mining, and Heavy Off-Road Equipment Industry. The Kurt 6W couplings are a one-piece, bite the wire crimp coupling with non-skive design to […]
Hydraulic fittings and flanges in mobile equipment
By Josh Cosford Few, if any, fluid power applications would exist without a method to join the “non-standardized standards” of the plumbing requirements of the components in a system. Like an evolved species of the same genus, separated through generations and geography, the long-lost cousins constituting the fittings family tree are as varied as any […]
New hydraulic adapters, fittings and mobile app from Brennan Industries
Brennan Industries Inc., Solon, Ohio, is expanding its product line just in time for IFPE, with new stainless-steel O-ring face seal and flange adapters, custom-made fittings, and even an expanded mobile app for product selection. Because they offer high corrosion resistance and sealing for critical, harsh-duty applications, the new adapters “are ideal in facilities alongside […]
