Westerns quick connects provide fast, reliable and positive connections and quick disconnections for torches, hoses and regulators. All models are color coded for gas service for added safety (oxygen/green, fuel gas/red, inert gas/blue). Oxy/fuel gas models include integral reverse flow check valves. Quick connects fit all B-size welding and cutting equipment.
- Brass construction provides long service life-cycle tested over 10000 operations indicating a service life of 10 to 12 years of comparable use
- Non-interchangeable oxygen and fuel gas connectors prevent accidental gas mixing
- Instant closure on reverse flow check valves with total shutoff at only 10 oz of back pressure
- Exceed CGA flow specifications-1100 SCFH flow at 125 psig inlet pressure and 800 SCFH flow at 125 psig inlet pressure when 2 additional check valves are used in conjunction with the quick connects
- Spring loaded locking mechanism responds to fingertip action and achieves a gas-tight connection
- For inert gas models, demand valve on supply side creates a positive seal when fitting is not connected
- Double seal socket connection on second seal provides added safety protection
