Product Description
TL85 1/2" Body SAE Male Flat Face "Connect-Under-Pressure" Hydraulic Quick Coupler
The TL85 is a robust, high-performance male flat-face coupler designed for demanding hydraulic systems where equipment downtime is not an option. Featuring advanced "Connect-Under-Pressure" technology, this coupler ensures that you can reliably attach your hydraulic implements even when residual pressure has built up in the lines due to environmental heat or system thermal expansion.
🗸 Connect-Under-Pressure Functionality: Built with an integrated relief valve that allows you to make a connection even when residual pressure is trapped in the attachment lines, eliminating the need to manually bleed pressure.
🗸 High-Pressure Performance: Engineered for heavy-duty use, this coupler is rated for pressures exceeding 5076 PSI.
🗸 Universal ISO 16028 Compatibility: While it offers advanced valve technology, it remains fully interchangeable with any standard 1/2" body Flat Face hydraulic system found on most modern skid steers and compact loaders.
🗸 Contamination & Leakage Control: The Flat Face design allows for quick and easy cleaning of the mating surface, keeping your hydraulic manifold free of grit and metal shavings, while the design minimizes fluid loss upon disconnection.
🗸 Rugged Construction: Featuring corrosion-resistant trivalent zinc plating and a heavy knurled sleeve for secure, non-slip handling, this coupler is built to thrive in harsh, gritty environments.

Q: What is the benefit of the #10 SAE (Dash -10) thread size?
A: The #10 SAE thread provides a larger flow path compared to smaller thread sizes. This ensures that your hydraulic system is not restricted at the connection point, allowing for better efficiency and less heat generation during high-demand operations.
Q: Can I use the TL85 with standard female couplers that are not "Connect-Under-Pressure" rated?
A: Yes. The TL85 male tip is fully compatible with any standard 1/2" body ISO 16028 female flat-face coupler. You will still receive the benefit of the relief valve functionality when connecting this male tip to your machine.
Q: Why does my hydraulic coupler sometimes feel like it won't snap in?
A: This is almost always due to "residual pressure" trapped in the attachment's hoses. As fluid heats up, it expands; if there is no place for that fluid to go, it creates immense back-pressure against the coupler valve. The TL85’s internal relief valve is specifically designed to overcome this physical barrier.
Q: Is the 1/2" body size the same as the 1/2" thread size?
A: No. The "1/2" Body" refers to the coupler's standardized mechanical interface (the connection face), whereas the "5/8" (#10) SAE" refers to the thread diameter used to attach the hose to the coupler. Always verify both measurements to ensure your new coupler matches your existing hoses.
