Standard couplings
LC
The LC series is made of chrome-plated brass and built for demanding applications with higher pressures and temperatures. The couplings work from vacuum to 17.3 bar and from -40 to 82 °C, with NBR seals. Connecting and disconnecting takes one hand. LC couplings mate with PLC in acetal and PLC12 in polypropylene.

Frequently asked questions
- Which couplings mate with the LC series?
- Bodies and inserts of the PLC series in acetal and the PLC12 series in polypropylene. For example, you can combine a brass body on the equipment with a plastic insert on the hose.
- What pressure is the LC series rated for?
- From vacuum to 17.3 bar at -40 to 82 °C.
- When is brass worth it over plastic?
- At higher pressures and temperatures, and wherever the coupling takes more mechanical stress.
- Which terminations are available?
- NPT and BSPT male threads in 1/4" and 3/8", hose barbs for 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8" hose, and PTF compression fittings.
