Full-Torque Nut couplings eliminate nut cracking during installation of high-pressure, wire-braid hydraulic hose assemblies and come on MegaCrimp couplings for wire-braid hoses and GlobalSpiral couplings for spiral-wire hoses. They are stronger and more durable than traditional staked-nut couplings that are prone to cracking when over-torqued. Large, smooth holding shoulder evenly distributes stress forces at the nut and eliminates nut cracking, seat damage, fluid leaks, and premature coupling failure.
