Flexible Couplings

Eaton Aerospace Aurora has been engaged in the design, development and manufacture of various types of fluid line connectors for over 40 years. Our flexible couplings, including
our GAMAHTM product line, have accumulated millions of in-flight hours. By utilizing sophisticated computer-aided design tools, Eaton Aerospace Aurora has mastered the ability to quickly optimize new flexible coupling designs for merging programs. We've invested in technology so that we can bring the latest design and manufacturing methods to the industry; thus enabling us to meet our customer's demanding price and delivery requirements.

We offer flexible couplings for a variety of aerospace, marine, and other vehicle applications. Each coupling is designed and tested to ensure it will exceed the life of the vehicle. Common uses include fuel, water, waste and environmental control systems. Our couplings meet a variety of application-specific requirements as well as industry (AS) specifications, including SFAR-88 lightning requirements.

Go to Clamshell Couplings

The threadless, or clamshell coupling, has been an attractive flexible coupling alternative for aircraft designers for many years. Eaton Aerospace Aurora offers a complete line of clamshell couplings options that allow engineers to optimize their systems for weight and reliability. We continue to push the
state of the art by developing new couplings and
incorporating new features including very high conductivity
features and an innovative safety latch mechanism.
Our newest designs greatly enhance lightning compatibility
(SFAR-88) while at the same time reducing installation and inspection times, thereby increasing overall system reliability.

Flexible couplings have proven to be a safe and highly reliable means of attaching fluid-system tubes. Innovative GamahTM couplings designs are being continuously produced for new commercial and military applications. Today's aircraft designers are looking for new alternatives to meet demanding weight, functionality and cost requirements. In response, Eaton's
PositiveLokTM coupling is a cost-competitive solution that significantly reduces installation time and is lighter when compared to its predecessors. The PositiveLokTM coupling provides the strength and reliability of a threaded coupling, along with the easy installation of a quick disconnect. The coupling provides an audible and tactile response to proper installation. Final system inspection can be performed
remotely and without tools.

 
Metal Seal
 

Go to Metal Seal

The GAMAHTM metal sealing concept offers a unique design which provides unprecedented reliability and service life to meet the demanding requirements of advanced technology
fluid systems. The Metal Seal coupling is superior to any modern design in its sealing effectiveness and adaptability
to a broad spectrum of pressure, temperature and material requirements. The Metal Seal coupling is used extensively throughout the International Space Station and also on the Trident II (D5) Fleet Ballistic Missile.
