LINES, FITTINGS, AND SEALS
The control and application of fluid power would be
impossible without suitable means of transferring
the hydraulic fluid between the reservoir, the power
source, and the points of application.
For example
heavy pipe might be used for a large stationary system
but comparatively lightweight tubing must be used in
mobile applications.
Flexible hose is required in installations where units
must be free to move relative to each other.

QUICK-DISCONECT COUPLINGS
These couplings are installed at locations where
frequent uncoupling of the lines is required for
inspection, test, and maintenance.
Quick-disconnect couplings are also commonly used in
pneumatic systems to connect sections of air hose and
to connect tools to the air pressure lines.
This provides a convenient method of attaching and
detaching tools and sections of lines without losing
pressure.
Quick-disconnect couplings provide a means for quickly
disconnecting a line without the loss of fluid from the
system or the entrance of foreign matter into the
system.
