The Alfagomma A-FM6S Two-Piece Fittings are straight, carbon steel hose fittings designed to connect hoses to a system. These fittings feature a hose end with a metric swivel female connection and a 60° cone, conforming to DIN 3863 standards. They are compatible with a variety of hose types, including wire and textile braided hoses, thermoplastic hoses, Flexor 4, PTFE hoses, and Alfabiotech 3000 and 4000 hoses, ranging from ³⁄₁₆" to 2" in diameter. Ferrules are metal components used to securely attach hoses to fittings, ensuring a tight, leak-free seal. The key difference between two-piece and one-piece fittings is that two-piece fittings have separate parts (usually a fitting and a ferrule), allowing for easier maintenance and replacement, while one-piece fittings are solid, requiring full replacement if damaged. Two-piece fittings provide flexibility and ease of use, making them a popular choice for various industrial applications.
