Guillemin symmetrical couplings

Our Guillemin couplings

The symmetrical Guillemin coupling is Pathel Industrie’s great speciality, we are producing one of the widest ranges on the market, with top quality couplings. These couplings, also called fire-fighting couplings, connect with a locking system also called a ring; which slides through the lugs of the opposite coupling. The two half-symmetrical couplings must have a locking system so that the assembly works.

A half-coupling consists of a thick body for a better resistance to abrasion. There is a groove inside this body, with a square gasket providing perfect sealing. This symmetrical coupling also has two reinforced lugs for better resistance to impact or two parts which are mounted on a grip collar, and a locking ring which turns freely and has two clamping raisings, the locking ring being held by a circlip.

Pathel Industrie couplings are installed with NRB gaskets.
