Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between dry break and standard quick couplings? Dry break reduces fluid loss and air ingress on disconnection, protecting both the system and the environment.
Can Snap-tite 71 be used for both hydraulics and chemical media? Yes, the series is developed for hydraulic and chemical applications. Choose materials and seals according to the media.
Which sizes and materials are available? Standard sizes from 1/8” to 2”, materials including stainless steel. Contact us for other materials/configurations.
How do I reduce contamination during service? Use the smooth surfaces of the flush face design for quick wiping/rinsing, and keep dust caps clean.
