Weco union connection

hammer union connection

  Weco union connections are one of the simplest connection one can make use of in any hydraulic pressure pumps,hydraulics pipe fittings, oil and gas trucks, hydraulics trucks etc.It requires no too much effort to use. The only effort you can make is to get a suitable industrial hammer that will match the figure of that particular Weco union connector and hit it to the weco union wing for it to tighten very well.Weco union connections are also used as a cross over connection.

For example: when you are using a 3" hydraulic hose (either Parker hydraulics, vickers hydraulics, Eaton hydraulics etc) to deliver hydraulic product with a Weco union connection that is the same 3" and you decided that 4" hydraulic hoses will discharge faster than 3" hydraulic hose, all you need to do is to change the hydraulic pump or truck that has the 3" Weco union connection to 4" Weco union connection .

Then use a Weco union cross over that is 4" reduced to 3" and connect the 4 " side to the hydraulic pumps while the other 3" Weco union cross over side will be connected to the 3"Weco union connected 3" hydraulic hose.And you must bear in mind that the Weco union cross over must have the same figure with the Weco union connected to the hydraulic hoses.The 3" Weco union figure 100 on the hydraulic hose must match with a 3" weco union Weco union cross while the 4" figure 100 Weco union cross over must match with a 4" Weco union figure 100 on the hydraulic pumps or trucks
