Tank Truck MK Couplings (TW Female Couplings)

The MK-type Tank Truck (TW) female coupling with a locking lever is an industrial standard designed for fast, secure, and reliable connection of hoses and pipe systems. Equipped with a robust handle, it locks onto the matching VK (male) coupling to create a completely leak-free connection.

Key Features:

• Quick & Secure Locking: The integrated lever handle allows manual coupling and decoupling without the need for specialized tools, while the safety latch prevents accidental opening under pressure.
• Maximum Leak Protection: The design features a specialized profile seal that ensures a tight joint, effectively handling vibration and pressure drops.
• Premium Material Options: Available in high-grade brass, stainless steel (AISI 316), or aluminum to ensure optimal resistance against corrosive fluids and harsh environmental conditions.
• Standard Compliance: Fully manufactured according to EN ISO 14420-6 (formerly DIN 28450) standards, guaranteeing universal compatibility with other TW components worldwide.

Technical Specifications:

• Working Pressure: Up to 16 bar (230 PSI).
• Thread Type: Female parallel BSP thread (G) according to ISO 228-1.
• Available Sizes: Standard industrial sizes including DN50 (2"), DN80 (3"), and DN100 (4").
• Seals: Available with NBR, Polyurethane, Viton, or PTFE seals depending on the medium being transferred.

Applications: Tank trucks (petroleum, diesel, and bitumen transport), chemical and petrochemical processing, agriculture, and dry bulk material handling (e.g., cement, flour).
