Universal safety quick coupler with anti-disconnect lock
Work with pressurised air without worrying about the hose shooting off. An accidental disconnection at 8 bar turns the hose into a whip that can strike anyone. This is the safety version of the universal quick coupler: its locking mechanism stops the tool or hose from suddenly coming loose if pulled, and reduces leaks and hose whip.
Available with a hose tail for 8 mm hose, or with a 1/4" and 3/8" female thread or a 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" male thread, to fit on the compressor, regulator, air network or the end of the hose.

Vetonek tip
With long hoses and heavy tools, the safety coupler is the best investment: a disconnection at 8 bar can make the hose whip around. Check the internal seal from time to time and apply a drop of oil to the mechanism.
