The Alfagomma A-MBAN Two-Piece Fittings are straight, carbon steel fittings designed to connect hoses to a system, featuring a hose end that connects to a metric banjo. These fittings are commonly used in various applications where flexible hose connections are needed. Ferrules are metal inserts that secure the hose to the fitting, ensuring a leak-free connection. The key difference between two-piece and one-piece fittings is that two-piece fittings have separate components, usually consisting of a fitting and a ferrule, offering easier installation and maintenance. In contrast, one-piece fittings are solid, requiring full replacement if damaged. Two-piece fittings, like the A-MBAN series, offer flexibility and convenience, especially when working with wire and textile braided hoses, thermoplastic hoses, Flexor 4, PTFE hoses, and Alfabiotech hoses ranging from ³⁄₁₆" to 2" in diameter. These fittings are optimized for use in demanding industrial environments where a secure, reliable hose connection is essential.
