These specialized connectors assure the right fit every time. They come in handy when connecting pipe work with different outside diameters. Our connectors have resolved potential issues and provided affordable, quick solutions for a lot of our customers.
Whether you call them branch connectors or T connectors, they are the same thing, and they are extremely useful in coolant and air systems. They enable the integration of pressure or temperature sensors, making them very handy.
These fittings are necessary when using silicone hoses in applications that require extremely high pressures, as in turbo scenarios. Flanged end fittings are also called integrated V band connections; they are clampless connections for faster, easier OEM assembly.
By being able to integrate features such as humps and rings, we can achieve more axial and radial flexibility for your silicone hose products. Installation becomes easier, with well-aligned ends.
While these are some of the most popular types of customizations that we do, they are not the only ones. If you need a custom solution that you don’t see covered here, contact our technical support teams. We have the experience and expertise to devise just the right solutions you need for your specific application.
