Quick Coupling / OPW Autolok Coupler
Primary Application
-
High-Risk Chemical Transfer: Ideal for handling hazardous, toxic, volatile, or high-value chemicals where a line disconnect would cause severe environmental or safety hazards.
-
High-Vibration Systems: Widely installed on bulk product pumping manifolds, offshore applications, and high-frequency loading arms.
-
Process Plant Piping: Used to transition permanent male-threaded piping into an ultra-secure, self-locking quick-connect terminal.
Structure & Specifications

-
Brand: OPW (United States)
Key Features & Benefits
-
Fail-Safe Autolok™ Technology: The arms feature an internal locking finger that snaps securely shut against the adaptor shoulder. The coupler cannot be opened accidentally by being bumped, dragged, or shaken—providing absolute peace of mind for operators.
-
No Clips or Pins Required: Streamlines connection times and improves safety by eliminating the need for separate, easily lost safety clips or lanyards.
-
16-Bar Heavy-Duty Rating: Precision cast and machined from solid 316 Stainless Steel, allowing it to maintain an uncompromised seal under demanding 16-bar structural pressure parameters.
-
Universal Interchangeability: Fully compliant with standard military and international specifications (A-A-59326 / MIL-C-27487) dimensions, enabling it to mate with any standard compliant male adaptor while upgrading the connection to a self-locking safety system.
