Chicago Fitting Air Hose

Universal hose couplings also known as chicago couplings or air king series couplings feature a simple quarter turn to connect.

Chicago fitting air hose. Chicago style universal hose couplings are used for air and water applications not steam. All couplings up to 1 have a two lug design and connect with one another. Also known as chicago and universal couplings these have an identical claw style head that allows you to connect to another chicago twist claw hose coupling regardless of the pipe size or barbed hose id. We feature a variety of safe and reliable air hose quick connections hose restraints and a wealth of industry knowledge.

We adopt carbon steel or stainless steel as its main material and produce the coupling according to din 3489. Thanks to its convenient installation performance it is widely used as the connection coupling for industrial compressed air hoses and water hoses. Chicago fittings are designed for air and water service.

The chicago coupling is known as air hose coupling or america air coupling. Universal couplings are sealed by pressing together and twisting a quarter turn. Couplings have a safety clip and lanyard to prevent accidental disconnection. To connect push two couplings together with a quarter twist.

These couplings are also called jackhammer or crowfoot couplings. Firmly pressing one coupler to another and twisting seals the connection. Couplings with a barbed end insert into rubber.

Chicago fittings feature a rubber seal that is inserted into both parts of the fitting allowing the fitting to provide a positive leak proof connection. All couplings over 1 inch have a 4 lug design that interchanges between all 4 lug sizes. Connect varying sizes of hose and fittings with ease all chicago type hose couplings interchange through 1 inch. Chicago couplings 1 inch and under have a 2 lug head design that mates with any 2 lug coupling regardless of hose or thread diameter.

These couplings are commonly installed on air hose assemblies that connect pneumatic tools to their compressed air source.
