Screw connect flat face couplings
Holmbury’s HFT Series screw connect couplings incorporate all of the benefits from the flat face design, whilst the screw connection strengthens the coupling and eliminates brinelling. Connection and disconnection can be undertaken with high residual pressure in male coupling. The HFT Series is an ideal solution for high pressure pulses and many other applications.
