Overview
Stucchi VP series is the ultimate
solution and most popular for
hydraulic circuit applications
subject to high pressure
impulses, and circuits which
experience high residual or
trapped pressure in a line. The
VP thread-to-connect design
eliminates premature wear
or brinelling associated with
locking ball designs subjected
to high impulse pressures. The
patented internal valve allows
connection and disconnection
with high residual pressures.
Flat face design avoids loss of
hydraulic fluid during connection/
disconnection. Flat face design
is easy to clean, limiting
contamination into the circuit.
