It�s what�s inside the MegaCrimp coupling that makes it perform so well the �C� insert. This �C� insert allows usage with different hose constructions and wall thicknesses. In addition the C-insert ensures an even distribution of crimping forces to form a concentric seal. That simplifies your inventory requirements since one size can accommodate many different hose ODs on both one- and two-wire braid hoses and select Xpiral hoses. An additional bonus: MegaCrimp couplings are fully qualified for SAE EN and ISO performance.

• The �bite-the-wire� design allows for coupling and hose retention to make a high performance risk-free hydraulic hose assembly. Full-Torque Nut couplings are stronger and more durable than traditional staked nut fittings that are prone to cracking when over-torqued. The Full-Torque Nut transfers input-torque to clamp-load more consistently than staked nuts minimizing leaks. MegaCrimp couplings allow you to simplify your inventory by carrying one family of couplings that are qualified on all Gates wire-braid hoses.
