Overview

A new generation of couplings, based on composite materials in combination with leading coupling technology,

Kongsberg Automotive has, in co-operation with various commercial vehicle manufacturers, developed a new air coupling system based on composite material and brass for use with plastic tubing for the compressed air circuits used on commercial vehicles.

The use of our couplings with other media than air is not permitted without prior approval.

  • Push-in couplings
  • ABC™ Swivels
  • ABC™ Building Blocks
  • Test Points
  • Bulkhead couplings
  • Hose nipples

Raufoss ABC™ couplings can be used with polyamide (PA 11 /PA12) or Hytrel tubing to one of the following standards:

  • ISO 7628
  • DIN 73378
  • DIN 74324
  • SAE J844

Operating temperature for ABC™ Couplings is between -40°C to+100°C, with peak-temperature up to + 130°C (pressure less, for a period of approximately 2 hours.)

The operating pressure is max 15bar for the couplings. Please take into consideration the max allowed tube operation pressure.
