WIG-O-FLEX System

Practical quick release and unlocking system for tube connections as an alternative to classic clamps, which must be laboriously assembled and disassembled.

These pipe connections have their origins in fluid transport systems in the aerospace industry, thus meeting stringent specifications.

The WIG-O-FLEX system utilizes a locking latch design, eliminating the installation of safety wire and offers one-handed installation. It is qualified for use in applications demanding high performance and provides a reliable, lightweight and flexible solution for fuel, oil, water and gas systems.

Features and benefits:

  • performance validated through testing & in field use
  • easy to close without special tools or tapes
  • robust aerospace design
  • one-handed installation
  • blind installation, locks closed
  • lightweight
  • reusable
