What are Quick Coupler Pneumatic Coupling And Quick Coupling Types
What is a Quick coupler?
Quick couplings are also known as quick connect couplers. These are general purpose couplings that can connect at either end of the connection.
Quick couplings can be connected and disconnected easily as they are compact but very robust and sturdy in their application. They are highly reliable as they provide unswerving service for the transfer of fluid for pneumatic, hydraulic and vacuum systems.
The socket is a male part of the coupling and the plug being the female part.
The couplings on the flow side have a floating ball valve that closes automatically when the couplings are disconnected and hence prevent the spillage of fluid from the system.
They are generally designed according to the maximum working pressure and could be made of steel, brass or stainless steel depending upon the application and the type of fluid.
The major applicable fluids are air, oil and water. Specific grades of hydraulic oil, fuel oil and lube oil could be used as well for the same.
Different types of pneumatic quick coupling
Worldwide, there are numerous types of pneumatic couplings. To learn quick coupling types from Longwei by following photos.

Types of quick coupling
Quick release couplings are made in a variety of different configurations, in order to accommodate their many applications.
Quick release coupling types include plain connectors, sleeve and poppet couplings, single-poppet connectors, double-poppet connectors, sliding ball couplers, hydraulic quick disconnects, air quick couplers, breakaway couplers, dry disconnect couplings, ball couplers, and camlock couplings.

HOW ARE AIR HOSE FITTINGS MEASURED?
Many of the hoses in our range will come already fitted with some type of end fitting so you can start connecting up to your air compressor and tools, any addition couplers you need will be the same size.
If you're still unsure what size you need, it's simple, the circumference of your hose is the size coupler that you will need. You can use this quick trick to work out the circumference of your hose:
Take your hose and a length of string
Wrap the string around the hose
Keep the string running around the diameter straight and true
Mark the string across both ends
Layout the sting next to a tape measure
Read the length of the string from mark to mark
This will give you the circumference of the hose
Take this length and divide by PI (3.1416)
This will give you the diameter of the hose
There are many different types of air fittings but most air tools use one of just a few types of connector. The main things to consider are the fitting type and the thread size. Common fixing types include ¼” BSP, ¼” PCL and 3/8” NPT.
How does a quick coupler work?
Just push the plug into the socket for simple and secure connection.this reduces connection time and improves effickiency.
