End Connections
Radcoflex are able to supply a full range of end connections to suit our composite hose such as Male & Female quick release couplings, flanges, male threads and female swivel nuts. Other special fittings to customers specifications are available on request.
Pressure Ratings
Quick release couplings (Camlocks) may not have a pressure rating as high as the hose to which they are attached. The applicable pressure rating for the complete assembly will be lower of the hose or the fitting. Please check table below for the pressure rating of quick release couplings.

Attachment method
Radcoflex engineering’s have developed the most modern machines for the attachment of end fittings including hydraulic external power swaging and mechanical high-tension wire whipping machines.
Fuel hose fittings
We have developed special OHMSEAL and OHMLOCK camlocks whereby both the inner and outer wire of the hose is locked directly to the camlock with grub screw. This ensures positive electrical contact that can be seen and easily checked without disconnection or degassing the assembly. The OHMSEAL fitting is for the use on swaged attachments and the OHMLOCK is for wire whipped attachments.
