Elifecenter 1/2" NPT hydraulic coupler for skid steer 🛠️
Description:
This set of two 1/2" NPT flat face quick-release hydraulic couplers from eLifecenter helps reduce fluid loss and keeps hydraulic connections cleaner when servicing skid steers or other hydraulic equipment. If you need hydraulic quick couplers for Bobcat models that follow ISO 16028, these flat face connectors offer a low-spill connection and corrosion-resistant construction for workshop and field use.
Key Points
These couplers are built from hardened alloy steel with an anti-corrosion plating that helps resist wear and exposure in tough environments. The flat face design is a dry-break style which minimizes dripping during disconnect and reconnect, resulting in less fluid waste and a cleaner work area 🛠️. Dust caps are included to seal ports when the lines are disconnected, preventing dirt and moisture from entering the hydraulic circuit and helping preserve component life.
According to the manufacturer, the connectors are rated to a working pressure of 5076 PSI and a maximum flow of 23 GPM, figures that make them suitable for many medium-duty hydraulic circuits. The package contains two complete sets of couplers with protective caps. Consider that compatibility should be double-checked against the specific OEM part numbers when exact interchange is required.

Usage Recommendations
Use these flat face quick couplers when frequent connection and disconnection is required, especially in situations where minimizing hydraulic fluid spillage is important. Before installation, clean mating ports and inspect for wear or damage to seals to reduce the risk of contamination. For applications where extremely high flow or pressures above the stated ratings are expected, consider verifying system requirements against the couplers’ specifications, since higher-demand circuits may need different components. Keep the included dust caps in place whenever lines are open to limit ingress of debris and moisture, which helps maintain pump and valve longevity 💧.
Note that while these couplers are promoted as compatible with common Parker part numbers and ISO 16028 Bobcat fittings, fitment should be confirmed for your specific machine and hose assemblies to ensure correct mating and safe operation.
