NORMA Group launches new quick connectors for tough requirements

Maintal, Germany, 9 May 2012

NORMA Group AG (“NORMA Group”), a global market and technology leader in engineered joining technology, has launched a new generation of quick connectors for charged air and cooling water systems. NORMAQUICK TWIST III has been developed to meet customers’ requirements for interface systems on future turbo charged engines.

The new generation of quick connectors substantially simplifies assembly and improves its quality: 

  • A new self-locking mechanism ensures that the connector is assembled on a mating spigot through an easy push and pull action. This ensures a correct assembly which in turn prevents leakages. The new design enables vehicle manufacturers to meet tight emission standards.
  • A symmetrical design allows that the connectors can be opened from any angle, which makes them suitable for tight environments and spin-weld applications.
  • Also, as the axial to radial ratio has been optimized, only very low assembly forces are required for even big sizes.
  • Specifically designed for tough mechanical requirements, NORMAQUICK TWIST III is characterized by a very good chemical and temperature resistance.
     

Bernd Kleinhens, member of the NORMA Group Management Board and responsible for Business Development, says: “With this new generation of quick connectors we prove once more that we listen to our customers’ demands and turn them into product innovations. They help our customers to stay competitive by meeting even future standards.”

NORMAQUICK TWIST III is made of four components, which are fully recyclable, and is available worldwide in three standard versions: NQ TW III SP for applications with injection or blow molded plastic components; NQ TW III V0 with a hose barb for the assembly of elastomer hoses and its equivalent 90° bend version NQ TW III V90.
