AQDC, Quick Connect Couplings




- 8, 16, 24, and 32 port Aluminum Quick Disconnect Couplings.
- Lightweight, quick, and reliable for multiple pneumatic connections.
- Convenient compression fittings, 1/16” and 0.040” (1mm) or bulged tubulations.
- Vibration resistance locking device tested to D0160F
- Male and female blanks and tubing guides are available.
The Aluminium Quick Disconnects (AQDC) series brings a high-quality, lightweight alternative to traditional connection methods for pneumatic lines, particularly tailored for pressure instrumentation. With its aluminium construction, the AQDC provides a significant weight advantage without compromising performance in applications that do not demand extreme temperature conditions.
Key features of the AQDC range include:
- Port Options: Configurations available in 8, 16, 24, or 32 ports to fit a broad range of system requirements.
- Connection Types: Features 1/16” and 0.040” (1mm) compression fittings with double ferrules for secure connections to stainless steel tubing. Bulged tubulations for flexible tubing with 1.0 or 1.6mm internal diameter are also offered, enhancing connection versatility.
- Temperature Range: Equipped with silicone seals for operation within a -55°C to +200°C temperature range, accommodating various operational environments.
- Vibration Resistance: Includes an anti-vibration locking main nut for stability and reliability in extreme vibration conditions.
- Material: Constructed from Aluminium alloy 2618A and NS4 anodized aluminium, ensuring durability and resistance against harsh conditions.
Tested rigorously for pressure performance and vacuum levels, the AQDC ensures leak-proof operation, making it an ideal choice for lightweight and durable quick disconnect solutions in harsh environments.
