Pulsar 5000 series standard range of crimp fittings have a huge advantage over most competitive lines.
This single range of couplings is used not only for wire braid and textile hoses, but for SAE 100R12 spiral hose applications as well.
This single feature reduces inventory investment, carrying costs, and space requirements compared to other two-piece and one-piece crimp systems.
Why two-piece fittings?...with one-piece fittings, each insert has a ferrule permanently attached, therefore users must stock one ferrule per fitting, and must duplicate the range where a different ferrule is required.
In a two-piece system, a wide range of inserts are stocked for any potential assembly that may be needed, and a much smaller number of ferrules for each hose type. Wherever possible, elbows and flanges are machined from bar stock and then bent and heat treated for maximum strength. Fittings made in this way are stronger than conventional brazed fittings assembled from parts.
