HQC Series High-Flow Quick-Disconnect Couplers
Engineering Overview & Structural Features
The HQC Series High-Flow Quick-Disconnect Couplers are engineered for rapid, secure connection and disconnection of high-pressure pumps, hydraulic hoses, cylinders, and bolting tools operating at pressures from 700 Bar (10,000 PSI) up to 1,400 Bar (20,000 PSI). Featuring spring-loaded self-sealing poppet check valves, hardened alloy steel locking balls, and positive-grip knurled sleeves, HQC couplers prevent fluid loss and air inclusion during tool changeovers. Available in standard 3/8" NPT, compact 1/4" NPT, low-height flat cylinder profiles, and G-1/4" ultra-high pressure configurations.
700 to 1,400 Bar Working Pressure
Precision-machined from heat-treated hardened alloy steel, delivering proven fatigue endurance under extreme pulsation cycles from 10,000 PSI up to 20,000 PSI.
Zero-Leakage Self-Sealing Poppets
Dual self-sealing internal poppet check valves snap shut instantly upon coupler uncoupling, preventing hydraulic oil spills and keeping workplace decks clean and safe.
High-Flow Streamlined Fluid Path
Engineered with generous internal flow passages to minimize fluid turbulence and pressure drop, maximizing hydraulic tool speed and cylinder retraction responsiveness.
Hardened Ball Mechanical Locking
Circumferential high-strength alloy steel locking balls seated in precision-machined grooves provide positive 360-degree connection security against accidental release.
Positive-Grip Knurled Sleeve
Diamond-pattern knurled sliding collar allows smooth one-handed push-to-connect operation even when wearing heavy, grease-coated protective work gloves.
Universal Fleet Interchangeability
Fully interchangeable with industry standard 700 Bar high-flow coupler series (e.g., Enerpac C-604, Parker 3000), making fleet integration seamless and worry-free.
OEM Cross-Reference & Dimensional Interchangeability
Heavy-duty high-flow quick-disconnect hydraulic couplers rated for 700 to 1,400 Bar (10,000 to 20,000 PSI), engineered for leak-free rapid tool interchange, positive ball locking, and automatic poppet sealing across 1/4" and 3/8" NPT and G-1/4" lines. 700 - 1400 Bar Quick Couplers.
