Parker Pneumatic has further extended its industry standard Schrader Range of quick acting pneumatic couplers with the introduction of the Euro Series.
The Karrykrimp system consists of a compact stand-alone unit, which incorporates a unitised die-train, which is available separately.
The relevant fitting is simply positioned on the end of the hose and the pair can then be inserted into the unit and crimped, producing a leak-free connection.
The Karrykrimp is available with both an easily portable hand pump and also a turbo air pump that makes crimping even easier.
By enabling crimping to be carried out simply and quickly, when and where it is required, the portable Karrykrimp solution can cut downtime significantly, removing the reliance on supplier availability and opening hours.
Factory-quality hose assemblies are now achievable on-site, making it possible to repair a range of hydraulic applications.
To ensure crimping is achieved correctly and safely, users should be trained in line with Parker standards.
Karrykrimp 1 and Karrykrimp 2 crimpers offer crimping of a variety of Parker No-Skive hose and fittings.
These include all one and two-wire braided SN and compact hoses up to DN32 as well as four spiral EN856 hoses up to DN25.
The system is suitable for construction, transportation, materials handling and automotive applications. Request a free brochure from Parker Hannifin ...
