Alfagomma A Series Straight Two-Piece Fittings are versatile, durable components used to securely connect various hoses in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. These fittings are designed for use with wire and textile braided hoses, thermoplastic hoses, Flexor 4, PTFE hoses, and Alfabiotech hoses in sizes ranging from ³⁄₁₆" to 2" in diameter. The "two-piece" design consists of a separate ferrule and insert, allowing for a more flexible and customizable fit. Ferrules are metal rings that compress around the end of the hose to create a tight seal, ensuring the hose stays securely in place and preventing leaks. The main difference between two-piece and one-piece fittings is that two-piece fittings allow for separate assembly of the ferrule and insert, making them more adaptable for different hose types and sizes, while one-piece fittings come pre-assembled for quick installation. This A Series system ensures leak-free, high-performance connections, ideal for high-pressure applications.
