PCL Vertex Series

The PCL Vertex Series is a premium range of quick-release couplings, engineered and manufactured in Sheffield, UK, to meet the demands of garages, tyre shops, and other high-usage environments. Featuring a double-action mechanism, the Vertex Coupling provides a secure and reliable connection, making it an excellent choice for operators using air tools and handheld inflators in trailing hose applications.

Designed for durability and ease of use, the Vertex Series incorporates a protective shoulder, which helps to prevent dirt penetration—a crucial feature for maintaining performance in demanding workspaces. With hardened steel construction and a corrosion-resistant finish, these couplings deliver long-lasting performance in busy workshop settings.

• Material: Hardened steel with a corrosion and scratch-resistant coating
• Protective Shoulder: Prevents dirt penetration, extending coupling lifespan
• Connection Type: Double-action quick-release mechanism for secure and effortless coupling
• Compatibility: Designed for UK Standard Adaptors
• Application Type: Hose trailing applications – ensures flexible and secure connections in dynamic workspaces
• Manufactured in the UK: Precision-engineered in Sheffield

No, Airflow and Vertex couplings are not directly interchangeable because they are designed for different applications.

The Airflow couplings are designed specifically for fixed applications such as use over workbenches or within compressed air pipework. They feature a single-action quick-release mechanism. On the other hand, the Vertex range is generally designed for trailing hose applications, meaning they are often used in situations where flexibility and movement are required, rather than fixed installations. They utilise a double-action quick-release mechanism.

However, both Airflow and Vertex couplings are compatible with UK Standard Adaptors, meaning they can be used within the same system as long as the correct adaptors are used. If you are looking to integrate both within a setup, it is crucial to ensure the correct coupling type is selected based on the application.
