Hose Couplings and Clamps connect or secure industrial hoses. The category covers standard and custom couplings and clamps for MRO and OEM applications, with versions in stainless steel, aluminium, brass, galvanised steel and bronze.
What are Hose Couplings and Clamps?A hose coupling creates a detachable or fixed connection between a hose and an installation. A clamp secures the hose or connection. ERIKS selects combinations from the existing connections, hose and assembly method and can develop, design, produce and test special couplings.
Applications and industriesHose couplings and clamps are used by maintenance organisations and OEMs across different industries. Applications include hygienic hose assemblies, chemical and fuel hoses, firefighting applications, steam and tank-truck connections.
How to select hose couplings and clampsSelect hose couplings and clamps according to the existing connection, hose type and assembly method. Then check material, pressure class, medium and required safety or hygiene properties. Finally decide whether a standard product is sufficient or a custom coupling is needed.
Key attributesKey attributes are connection type, hose type, assembly method, material, pressure class, medium, and safety or hygiene requirements.
Frequently asked questions
When is a dry-break hose coupling suitable?A dry-break coupling is intended for leak-free connection of hoses carrying chemicals and fuels. Check the medium, connection and required safety version before selection.
Which materials are available for hose couplings?The manufacturing information identifies stainless steel, aluminium, brass, galvanised steel and bronze. Select the material according to the medium, environment, pressure class and required surface properties.
When should a hygienic hose coupling be selected?Use a hygienic coupling for food and pharmaceutical hose assemblies. The range includes DIN 11851, DIN 11864 and Tri-Clamp connections; match the dimensions to the installation.
Can hose couplings be customised?Yes. ERIKS can develop special couplings using drawing systems and rapid prototyping and has in-house casting, forging, manufacturing and testing capabilities.
