Flat-face couplings couplings prevent fluid leaks and protect the environment

By Mary Gannon | November 24, 2020

Parker Hannifin has expanded its flat-face couplings offering with the SCFF series. This series of couplings offers users a number of benefits ranging from low-leakage decoupling to the avoidance of air entrapment during coupling. The couplings, which are tested in accordance with ISO 7241-2, are easy to clean and very flat.

Parker Hannifin SCFF flat-face couplingsWhether being used in mobile hydraulics, transport, or the oil and gas industry, SCFF couplings are resistant to vibrations and other forms of mechanical stress. The processes of coupling and decoupling are also fast and reliable: due to the inclusion of an ACME thread, no fluid escapes during these stages. The reliability of this system is enhanced by the swivel function together with the unique locking sleeve to avoid accidental disconnection.

SCFF plugs are available with pressure eliminator. Thanks to this innovative technology, it is possible to connect couplings in the presence of accumulated or residual pressure without any problems. A miniature valve automatically relieves the pressure in the connecting phase.
