Spring Lock Coupler
Push Connect Fittings:
PURPOSE
Spring lock couplers are used to connect fuel lines to fuel injection supply manifolds.
CONSTRUCTION
The spring lock coupling is a fuel line coupling held together by a garter spring inside a circular cage. When the coupling is connected together, the flared end of the female fitting slips behind the garter spring inside the cage of the male fitting. The garter spring and cage thus prevents the flared end of the female fitting from pulling out of the cage. As a redundant locking feature, a horseshoe shaped retaining clip is incorporated to improve the retaining reliability of the spring lock coupling.
