TECHNICAL DATA OVERVIEW

 

The Valved Quick Connector (VQC) has all the benefits of the Oetiker Quick Connector while completely retaining fluid inside the vehicle module (i.e., transmissions or battery packs) until the fluid tube is inserted past the internal seal. Once the tube is installed into the quick connector, flow begins with minimal pressure drop. Transmissions, turbochargers, battery packs, and other cooling modules can be filled, tested, and shipped to the OEM without the need to drain and clean. With fluid retained inside the module, factory floors remain safe and clean during assembly or service featuring a 100% dry connection.
