Hosco Fittings and Connections - Prefis™ Connectors

Installing new or modifying existing piping systems for process fluids such as paint or high viscosity sealer header systems has never been faster or easier than with the Hosco PreFiS connector family of products. Available in 316 SST wetted parts for paint or process fluids and carbon steel for high pressure systems, the PreFiS system of connectors is a full line of couplings, reducing couplings, tees, reducing tees, lateral wyes, and others to provide
smooth-bore, cavity and silicone-free, and low shear operation–the attributes which serve as Hosco’s cornerstone of design.

Tooling
The installation of the press fitting is done with the help of a press tool and a high pressure pump. Our press tools come in an open or closed configuration, are easy to handle, and can be used in narrow spaces satisfying the tight center-to-center requirements.

Components
PreFiS products consist of a cylindrical body with a cogged inner surface and two press ring sets. It only takes a few seconds to crimp the fitting onto the pipe.

Advantages
• Reduced Installation time: Complete a 2” carbon steel fitting in 40 seconds per side; 3” in 90 seconds per side
• Less effort: No PST sealant, gaskets, o-rings or welding required
• Resistance to high pressures, temperatures and chemicals
• Available in various configurations and dimensions
