Fittings for Closed Cooling in Harsh Welding Environments

Eisele Connectors Inc. (Grand Rapids, MI) offers their Liquidline fittings for use in closed cooling systems in harsh welding environments. The fittings, which are manufactured from a solid dezincification-resistant brass alloy for cooling water of pH 5, are more resistant to corrosion than traditional fittings and can stand up to high temperatures, high flow and aggressive aqueous media. The fittings also feature an innovative protective “release sleeve” to avoid weld spatter build-up. “We’re thrilled to provide the North American market with our high-quality, durable, easy-to-install coolant connectors and accessories, and to demonstrate why manufacturers in Europe, especially those in the automotive industry, have relied on our solutions for decades,” said Michael Jones, the director of sales for Eisele Connectors.

Fittings from the Liquidline range are additionally available in aluminum (sea water-resistant), 316 stainless steel and 304 stainless steel for less aggressive media, and in a variety of thread options, including BSPP – G Thread, BSPT – R Thread (with and without PTFE thread sealant), Metric Thread and Industrial NPT threads. The product offering also includes flame-retardant and abrasion-resistant ProWeld hoses made of polyether-polyurethane that can be used for high stress conditions, like those that occur in welding applications. Accessories include color-coded sleeves to eliminate the risk of incorrect connections, an adapter for the transition from pipes to hoses, and special parts for the transition from oval copper cooling coils to hoses.
