We manufacture hose couplings in many different styles and sizes to match Ryco , with a wide range of thread and connection types.
What is a Coupling?
A hose cannot be connected to a system like a hydraulic circuit without attaching a component, called a ‘coupling’, to each of its ends. When couplings are attached to the ends of a hose, it completes what is called a ‘hose assembly’.
Couplings have two ends, the ‘hose end’ and the ‘connector end’. For the connector end, there are many different ‘end styles’ to choose from so that hose assemblies can be uniquely configured for the application. Connector ends can be straight or have a 30, 45, 60, 90 or 135-degree configuration. They can also have one of the various connector styles such as JSEAL™, JIC, SAE, NPT/NPTF/NPSM, or BSPP/BSPT to name just a few of the many.
Types of Ryco Couplings
Couplings are specifically matched to the hose type and series and can be one or two-pieces and are either crimped on, pushed on or field attachable.
are permanently attached couplings with the ferrule pre-fitted to the insert, eliminating incorrect ferrule selection and skiving while ensuring reliable hose assembly performance.
Push On & Suction & Return Couplings are field-attachable fittings, designed for low pressure or suction applications.
feature five ferrule styles tailored to specific hose types with a common insert for versatility and reliability.
Hydraulic Fittings Accessories consist of a comprehensive range of mounting clamps, kits, and the innovative WEO click-to-connect system, designed for seamless assembly, durability, and optimum performance.
Considerations For Hose Assembly
Couplings have their own series designations and not every configuration and connector style is available for every coupling series and/or hose size. Hose couplings must be carefully matched to the hose.
When selecting couplings for building a hose assembly, there are specifications to consider such as:
- Hose Type
- Hose Series
- Hose Size
- Coupling Connector End Style
- Connector End Style
- Coupling Series (that is matched to the hose)
