How to use claw couplings


Claw couplings are broadly used for air and water in industry and construction. Both halves of the coupling are exactly the same – no distinction between a coupler and an adapter. They have two lugs (claws) each, which engage in the corresponding notches of the opposite half. That is why they can be connected so easily – just by pushing two part together and turning. However, only the elements of the same type, with the same claw distance can be interconnected.

1.Push the two couplings together at 180° degrees opposite to each other until the seal faces touch. Afterwards, rotate one coupling half as far as it will go into the opposite direction of the other – the couplings lock into place.

2.To disconnect, push the coupling and the counterpart together in axial direction. Afterwards, turn one coupling half as far as possible in the opposite direction as you would do when connecting and remove it from the counterpart.

3.To ensure a perfect connection, the locking nut at the MODY-safety-screwing coupling is tightened manually.

This connection is absolutely safe, easy to connect and 100 % leakage-proof.
The claw couplings are divided into the following types:

1.American Type including Hose end, Male, Female, Blanked, Triple connection
Features: White zinc NPT threads

2.European Type including Hose end, Male, Female, SKA34&European type hose end with step, Female End with crowfoot, Hose end with Crowfoot.
The claw couplings are assembled to hoses with malleable iron hose clamps or other clamps.

The claw couplings cover such applications as: compressed air transfer, connecting pneumatic tools and pneumatic systems, water systems in the industry, at construction sites, agriculture and horticulture. The claw couplings are assembled to hoses with malleable iron hose clamps or other clamps.
Air hose couplings are a convenient quick connect system with high quality raw material and favorable price, we have more than 30 years’ experience to produce claw coupling & double bolt clamp. Enjoy a good reputation abroad. We always insist the principle: Quality first, Service best.
