The Quick-test Connection Platform from Ralston Instruments is a universal pressure hose system engineered to facilitate fast, leak-free connections for pressure testing, calibration, and leak testing.

The unique design of Ralston Instruments hoses and adapters is said to offer secure, time-saving connections — without the need for a wrench or thread tape — for low volume, high pressure connections to the device being tested.

Quick-test hoses have a smaller inner diameter than most hoses, which makes them suitable for transmitting high pressure without wasting large amounts of compressed gas or fluid, the company says.

Hose is made with a polyamide-reinforced inner core, allowing them to twist and bend without losing volume across the hose.

Quick-test Adapters complement the hoses and allow direct connection to male or female NPT, BSPP, Tube Fittings, Metric, AN 37° Flare and CGA 580 fillings without any additional tools or thread sealant.

Adapters can also vent pressure while still connected, it adds, and because they eliminate the need for wrenching, the threads don’t wear out.
