Gates GlobalSpiral GS Ferrule Coupling for 4-Spiral Hose, 0.5 in, Steel, 8GS1F-4XBULK
Product Overview
Gates® GlobalSpiral™ couplings provide superior performance for extremely high-pressure, high-impulse spiral-wire hydraulic hose applications. The innovative two-piece, no-skive design allows for fast, tailor-made assemblies. Eliminating the skiving process drastically reduces assembly time, labor, odor, fabrication errors, and contamination of the fluid power system. Maximum application coverage - GlobalSpiral™ couplings are available in more than 80 thread configurations, making it easy to find the right fit for your assembly. GlobalSpiral™ thread ends are machined from unleaded steel bar stock and can handle working pressures up to 6,000 psi. Coated with TuffCoat™ plating, providing more than five times better corrosion resistance than SAE ASTMB117 specification.GlobalSpiral Coupling, Steel, 0.5 in Connection Size 2, GS Ferrule Connection Type 1, Hose Connection Type 2, 6000 psi Operating Pressure, 1.453 in Length
Features & Benefits
- Maximum Application Coverage - GlobalSpiral Couplings are Available in More Than 80 Thread Configurations, so Finding the Right Fit for Your Assembly has Never Been Easier.
- Surpasses one million impulse cycles. Innovative, two-piece, no-skive design.
- Unique bite-the-wire crimp design allows for improved coupling retention and blow-off prevention.
- The GlobalSpiral Two-Piece Configuration Greatly Reduces the Chance of Assembly Error.
- Eliminating the Skiving Process Drastically Reduces Assembly Time, Labor, Odor, Fabrication Errors & Contamination of the Fluid Power System.
- GlobalSpiral Couplings Surpassed One Million Impulse Cycles at +250 Deg. F (+121 Deg. C) w/o Causing Stress Cracks in the Hose Tubing.
- Reduces parts inventory by 30% since only one stem is required for all spiral-wire hose types.
- Reduces assembly time, labor, fabrication errors and contamination.
- Note: MGS Couplings For Use w/ MC4-20 Crimper Only.
- Coated w/ TuffCoat Plating - More Than Five Times Better Corrosion Resistance Than SAE ASTMB117 Specification.
- Machined from Unleaded Steel Bar Stock, GlobalSpiral Thread Ends are Able to Handle Working Pressures Up to 6,000 PSI.
