hose

Q1 Can gasoline be run through the TOYOFUSSO Hose? Fluid
A.

Do not use fuel oil in the TOYOFUSSO Hose Series.

We do not produce hoses that can be used with fuel oil.

Q2 Does the TOYOFUSSO-E Hose for antistatic use require grounding on the clamp also? How to use
A.

Yes. Be sure to ground or bond the hose clamp. Failure to ground may cause the hose clamp to become an isolated conductor, accumulating static electricity and leading to electrical discharge or ignition. Note that hoses with an antistatic band on the hose exterior (TOYOTOP-E Hose, TOYOTOP-E 100°C Hose, and TOYOFOODS EARTH Hose) are designed with a structure that does not generate static electricity on the surface of the hose (to a degree that static electricity could accumulate on the clamp).

Q3 I want to cut a PVC hose reinforced with steel wire. What kind of tool is best for a clean cut? How to use
A.

Although you can used anything with a sharp blade to cut PVC hose containing hard steel wire, we recommend using an end nipper capable of cutting through hard steel wire. Check out our videos on how to cut PVC hose containing hard steel wire.

Q4 Is it possible to purchase hoses in shorter lengths than listed, and if so, is there a minimum length? Also, how does the pricing work for that? Service
A.

Many of our dealers will cut hoses to the desired length. Please consult with your local dealer for available sizes and pricing.

Q5 Is it possible to buy hoses in longer lengths than listed? Specification
A.

Yes, depending on lead times and quantities, we do our best to provide custom lengths. Please note that prices may differ. Consult with your local dealer for details.

coupling

Q1 Are Toyox ferrule couplings ISO-compliant? Specification
A.

Yes. All are ISO2852 ferrule groove compatible parts. When connecting, use a packing for ISO ferrule couplings.

Q2 What is the difference between the male coupling and pipe thread coupling on the caulking bracket? Specification
A.

Male coupling is for sanitary use. It is not compatible with pipe thread.

Q3 Do the HF, HM, HC and HNT coupling models come with gaskets? Specification
A.

The HC model comes with a gasket, but the other couplings do not and must be provided for separately. Toyox does not sell gaskets separately. TOYOX provides KAMLOK gaskets separately, but not other coupling packings.

Q4 Can a TOYOCONNECTOR be attached and removed multiple times? Specification
A.

The TOYOCONNECTOR Series can be reused except for the all-resin type (TC3-PC). Be sure to replace the sleeve (or rubber cap depending on the product) when reusing. Also, note that it is not designed to be frequently attached or detached as in the case of disassembly cleaning.

Q5 What are the differences between TOYOCONNECTORS and crimped products? Specification
A.

TOYOCONNECTORS adjust the length of the hose on-site Fittings can be attached by tightening a cap nut with a wrench. (Check the type of TOYOCONNECTOR and which hoses are compatible) Hose assemblies are specified by hose size, length, couplings, and are assembled by the manufacturer. (Check compatible hose and fitting types) Both are dedicated fittings for TOYOX hoses. *Crimping product fittings are not for individual sale.

kamlok

Q1 Can cam arms be replaced? Model lineup
A.

You can purchase a set containing a cam arm, pin and ring. Please let us know the material and size of your cam arm when ordering this.

Q2 Can a 1/2″ coupler be connected to a 3/4″ adapter? Connection
A.

Yes, it can. The fitting areas of the 1/2″ coupler and 3/4″ adapter are the same size. Likewise, a 3/4″ coupler can be connected to a 1/2″ adapter.

Q3 Is the KAMLOK compatible with lever type coupling made by other companies? Connection
A.

MIL standard lever type couplings and KAMLOK are compatible. However, the gasket specifications are different between companies. Our warranty only covers fittings and gaskets of the same manufacturer. Make sure that the size and material are the same.

Q4 Are there any products such as lids to prevent foreign matter from entering into the KAMLOK couplings? Model lineup
A.

For each material, the Dust Cap 634-B is available for couplers and the Plug Cap 634-A for adapters. However, they cannot be used in applications where pressure is applied or to prevent leakage. It is only for protection from dust and foreign matter.

Q5 What kind of coupling is KAMLOK? Specification
A.

KAMLOK is a coupling composed of male (adapter) and female (coupler) that can be easily attached and detached by tightening or loosening the lever (arm). KAMLOK is available in types that connect to hoses, devices, equipment and piping materials. Also, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, bronze and polypropylene (PP) types are available to meet various applications, fluids and usage conditions.

hose clamp

Q1 Are the TOYOX hose bands compatible with RoHS2? Laws and regulations
A.

All hose bands are RoHS2 compatible. Certificates are available if necessary. Necessary survey reports can be downloaded by registering as a member. Feel free to use them as needed.

Q2 Do you separately sell safety caps for safety bands? Can it be attached to the band edge of other companies’ hose bands? Part
A.

Safety caps for safety bands are not sold separately. In addition, you cannot attach a safety cap to the tip of another manufacturer’s hose band. In addition, do not use the product once the safety cap has been removed.

Q3 What is the maximum tightening torque in the safety band specification table? Is there data on the optimal torque when tightening the hose? Specification
A.

The maximum tightening torque in the band specification table is guaranteed by the manufacturer. Exceeding it may cause damage or the band tightening function to deteriorate. There is no proper torque value. There are many hose hardnesses, wall thicknesses and coupling types. Setting up is difficult as it depends on which part of the barb to be attached. To solve such issues, we offer special couplings for tightening cap nuts called TOYOCONNECTOR that do not require torque management.

Q4 When attaching a hose to a nipple with a clamp, where should the clamp be placed? How to use
A.

To securely connect the parts, fasten the clamp in the middle of the peak of the barb, above the depression. Do not fasten it immediately below the hexagonal area of the nipple. We recommend using two clamps if the hose size is greater than 1″ (25mm).

We provide a wide range of support from selecting ideal products for specific usage conditions to downloading certificates regarding laws and regulations, as well as downloading of materials such as catalogs.

You can download useful materials that address issues such as “leaks and disconnections”, “energy-saving measures”, and “odor and coloration.”

We use videos to introduce the benefits of using products and how to install them, which may be difficult to understand just using text and illustrations.

We have compiled frequently asked questions from customers in the “FAQ” section.

To assist you in making selections, we provide common examples of improvements for hoses and couplings through industry-based case studies.
