Tankwagon Couplings

Tankwagon Couplings, also known as liquid transfer
couplings or tanker couplings, are specialist connectors used to quickly and securely connect hoses or pipes to storage tanks, tankers, or process systems. Their primary role is to ensure a leak-tight seal during the transfer of liquids or low-pressure gases.

These couplings typically feature a male and female
threaded connection or flanged end, along with a locking mechanism that ensures safe and secure engagement. Many also include internal seals, cam levers, or swivel components to allow for easier operation and alignment.

Designed to withstand repeated use and exposure to
chemicals, fuel, and food-grade materials, tankwagon couplings are widely used in liquid logistics and industrial distribution systems.

At Integraflex, we offer a comprehensive range of Tankwagon Couplings designed for durability and compatibility across a wide variety of liquid handling systems. Our product range includes:

MK Style Couplings
A common choice for tanker discharge and loading systems, these couplings are engineered for quick, secure connections with minimal leakage risk.

VK Adaptors
Used to convert connections for compatibility with MK couplings or other hose systems, VK adaptors are an essential component in modular hose assemblies.

Blanking Plugs
Designed to seal off unused tanker or hose outlets, these plugs help maintain system hygiene, prevent contamination, and ensure safety during transport or downtime.

All of our Tankwagon Couplings are available in a variety of materials including stainless steel, aluminium, and brass to suit chemical compatibility, hygiene requirements, and budget. Sizes and configurations are available to meet industry-specific standards.

Benefits of Using Tankwagon Couplings

Investing in high-quality Tanker Couplings brings a
wide range of performance and safety advantages, including:

• Quick and Reliable Connection – Easy-to-use design saves time and minimises handling errors
• Leak-Proof Sealing – Reduces the risk of product loss, contamination, and environmental hazards
• Durability – Built to withstand frequent connection cycles, pressure changes, and harshconditions
• Chemical Compatibility – Choose the right material to safely handle acids, alkalis, fuels, oils, and more
• Regulatory Compliance – Designed to meet industry and transport safety standards
• Versatility – Compatible with hoses, tanks, valves, and other fluid-handling components

Tankwagon Couplings are vital components in any system handling bulk liquids. Their precision engineering and secure sealing mechanisms make them a popular choice in applications where hygiene, chemical compatibility, and leak prevention are paramount.

Typical applications include:

• Tanker Loading and Unloading – Fuel, water, or chemical delivery systems
• Chemical and Petrochemical Industries – Safe fluid transfer from tanks to process lines
• Agriculture – Handling fertilisers, water, or liquid feed systems
• Food and Beverage – Sanitary couplings for hygienic liquid transfer
• Marine and Offshore – Transfer systems for fuels and other liquids in coastal or offshore environments
• Waste and Water Treatment – Secure pipework and hose connections for hazardous or high-volume liquids

Wherever efficiency and spill prevention are important, liquid transfer couplings like these offer a robust and practical solution.

Finding the most suitable Tankwagon Coupling for
your setup depends on a few important factors:

Fluid Type – Whether you're handling aggressive chemicals, food-grade liquids, or fuel, select a material that provides optimal compatibility.

Connection Method – Threaded, flanged, or cam and groove—ensure the coupling matches your system’s connection type.

Pressure and Temperature Ratings – Choose a product that suits your operating conditions.

Material Requirements – Stainless steel for hygienic or corrosive environments, aluminium for lightweight applications, and polypropylene for cost-effective chemical use.

Size and Flow Requirements – Ensure correct internal diameters for efficient flow and pressure management.
