Great Idea, Bad Design
Written By John Town on Wed 22nd Mar 17, 12:05So far I have had 2 of 6 break on me. 1 from just opening the release system upon opening packaging and the second today while inspecting a slow but gradual suspected leak.
The method and simplicity of these is great but the design does not allow for much room for strain on the connection itself.
In short, buy the solid metal release connectors.

For this reason, these couplings do not use a "click" mechanism but are bolted with a nut. The couplings can no longer be unlocked accidentally.Alphacoolstock_yes2
