Midland Industries 61054 Drybreak Coupler 1-1/4 in Fnpt Brass

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 61054 is a brass drybreak quick disconnect coupler designed for hydraulic fluid transfer applications where minimizing spillage during connection and disconnection is critical. Featuring a wing nut design for tool-free operation, this coupler accepts 1-1/4 inch FNPT connections on both ports and is rated for a maximum operating pressure of 2750 psi. It handles a temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F, making it suitable for demanding hydraulic system environments. Licensed hydraulic technicians and industrial maintenance professionals specify drybreak couplers to reduce fluid loss, contamination, and environmental exposure during routine line changes.

This coupler is intended for hydraulic systems requiring a reliable dry-break connection point, particularly in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and fluid transfer lines where frequent connect-disconnect cycles occur. The 1-1/4 inch FNPT inlet and outlet sizing suits mid- to large-bore hydraulic lines. Both ports share the same thread standard, simplifying plumbing layouts. The wing nut actuation allows field disconnection without additional tools, which is useful in maintenance-intensive environments.

Key Features

• Wing nut actuator allows tool-free operation in the field
• 1-1/4 inch FNPT connections on both ports for straightforward inline installation
• Rated to 2750 psi maximum operating pressure for high-pressure hydraulic service
• Operating temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F suits a wide range of hydraulic fluids
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance in hydraulic fluid environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hydraulic drybreak coupler for systems using 1-1/4 inch FNPT ported components in industrial and mobile hydraulic applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician. Depressurize and bleed down the hydraulic circuit completely before disconnecting or installing any coupler. Apply thread sealant appropriate for hydraulic service on the FNPT threads and verify hand-tight plus wrench engagement without overtightening brass fittings. Confirm all connections are fully engaged and leak-tested before returning the system to service.
