Threadless, fixed cavity self-bonding coupling assembly

Threadless, fixed cavity self-bonding coupling assembly

Designed for reducing weight and easy installation on aircraft either by swaged or welded ferules. Fitted on fuel, air and water pipes. Allows multidirectional misalignment and axial movement. These flexible connectors meet the requirement of AS 1650, AS 5830, ABS 0395, ABS 0743, MIL-C-22263B and MIL-B-5087B.

Upon special request a check valve can be fitted in the various connector sizes allowing the disassembly and assembly of equipment. New developments: lightning Strike Flexible, threadless connections, special assembly allowing misalignment up to 6° (+/- 3°).

Features
multi-directional misalignment up to 4° (+/- 2°) and axial movement up to 7 mm.
Material
aluminium, stainless steel, titanium.
Sizes
both metric and Anglo-Saxon sizes from 08D (1/2 inch) to 64D (4 inches).
Temperature range
-60°C to +315°C / -76°F to +599°F.
Burst pressure
25,8 BAR / 374 PSI.
Applications
all aircraft (Airbus, Falcon, HAL,…) and military aircraft (Dassault,…).

Wig.O.Flex couplings

Wig.O.Flex couplings

They achieve compliant connectors of pipes and absorb the axial and angular displacements of lines due to thermal expansion or to elastic warping of structures.

Most couplings are made of light alloy or stainless steel; their seals are adapted to the type of fluid handled and to operating pressure/temperature conditions.

Features
range of couplings for metric sizes of pipes: 6 – 8 – 10 – 12 – 16 – 20 – 25 – 32 – 40 – 45 – 50 – 63 – 80 – 100 range of couplings for imperial sizes of pipes: 1/2” – 3/4” – 1” – 1”1/4 – 1”1/2 – 1”3/4 – 2” – 2”1/2 – 3”
Applications
business aircraft (Falcon, HAL,…), military aircraft (Dassault,…);
