Dixon Quick Coupling to Release Redesigned HT-Series in April 2010

[Feb 01, 2010]

Dixon Quick Coupling is proud to announce the release of its newly redesigned HT-series of hydraulic flushface products to hit the market on April 1, 2010. We’ve listened to our customer feedback and optimized the series to address performance, reliability and ease of use.

We have added several new products to the series for 2010, including ¼” flushface couplers and nipples with female NPTF and BSPP threads. For the ½“ size, JIC and ORFS bulkhead threads are being added to fulfill the requirements of Skid-Steer compact equipment applications, due to overwhelming customer demand.

In order to improve the performance of this series, we’ve included the following features:

• A high strength laser-cut valve guide in the nipple will maximize valve stability and minimize flow restriction.
• An improved sealing system in the nipple has a high-performance molded polyurethane seal.
• The overall length of the product has been shortened to reduce incidents of side-load damage to the main seals.
• DORS (dual opposing retention spheres) system is designed to prevent valve stem ejection in the coupler during surge flow and pressure spike conditions
