When it comes to connecting industrial hoses in high-pressure suction and discharge applications, failure is not an option. From a safety standpoint, you need to know your hose connections are durable, reliable, and up to the challenge of withstanding extreme pressures. You need Wolf Creek Portable Piping’s crimp hose fittings!
Fabricated using True Genuine Bauer parts, Wolf Creek’s crimp hose fittings are specifically engineered for heavy-duty, high-pressure jobs. Here’s what sets our crimp hose fittings apart:
Strong Steel Construction
Stock Genuine Bauer hose fittings are already manufactured from strong, high-grade steel, but our WC crimps take it a step further. The shank wall of our crimp hose fittings is reinforced with considerably thicker steel than standard Genuine Bauer hose connector sets, ensuring the machined barb hose shank is heavy enough to withstand intense crimping pressures.
Ridged Retention Surface
Our WC crimped hose fittings also have a larger retention surface with many ridges, or “teeth,” that grab onto the hose. Combined with a crimping sleeve that’s hydraulically pressed onto the hose, it creates an extremely secure connection that’s ideal for high-pressure assemblies.
All the Benefits of Genuine Bauer Fittings
As with all our hose fittings, WC crimp hose fittings allow up to 30 degrees of articulation on the coupling joint and withstand pressures up to 174 PSI. The Genuine Bauer end with a welded hinge pin design makes the lever stronger and more durable, unlike the flimsy rivets you’ll find on inferior ‘B-type’ fittings.
Ready for Any Application
Simple rolled-form hose fittings work well for suction line applications. However, if you’re dealing with high-pressure jobs, there’s the danger of the hose being pushed off a rolled shank barb when pressurized. If you need durable, reliable, and versatile hose connections for both suction and pressure conditions, a WC crimp hose fitting can handle it all!
Many of our customers are opting to standardize their hose inventory to WC crimped hose connections. This way, there’s no risk of accidentally pulling a suction hose for a pressure application.
Go Ahead, Pump Up the Pressure
Crimping is by far the most secure method to attach a hose to a fitting. If you want to feel confident going into your next high-pressure project, choose Wolf Creek’s crimp fittings for a leak-proof, reliable connection!
