Dixon 8WF8 W-Series Wingstyle Female Threaded Coupler

Applications

Designed for applications requiring a coupling that can be connected under residual pressure with minimum spillage and air inclusion. Widely used on dump trailer wet-line hydraulic systems and oil field equipment. Not recommended for continuous hydraulic impulse applications.

Compatibility & Interchange Data

• Bonded Flange Valve - Improved Pressurized Connection Service

Safety Notes

• Although wingstyle couplings are able to connect and disconnect while under pressure, it is recommended that hydraulic power supply be de-energized during connection to ensure operator safety. If it is not possible to de-energize the circuit, operators must be aware of their surroundings to ensure that an attachment or tool does not put them at risk, once hydraulic power is applied during the connection process.
• W-series couplings are not recommended for continuous hydraulic impulse applications at rated pressures.
