WEH® Leak Test Quick Connector TW18H for vacuum and pressure testing up to max. 350 bar

The WEH® TW18H connector is the perfect tool for pressure, function and vacuum testing during production and rated for pressures up to max. 350 bar. The safe and pressure-tight connection to standardised male threads is established in just seconds – without tedious hand tightening.

No additional thread sealants are required, time-consuming and expensive clamping and testing devices are eliminated. The manual actuation via hand lever is child's play. Only actuate the hand lever and place the TW18H loosely onto the test piece. On frequent connection and disconnection considerable time and cost savings are achieved.

The higher the test pressure, the tighter the WEH® Connector will clamp itself onto the test piece port thus providing added safety for operators.

The quick connector is available for low pressure up to 50 bar and high pressure up to 350 bar. For automated applications with pneumatic actuation we offer the TW18V with valve button and the TW18P for fully automatic control systems.
