WALRINGplus

Overview & Features

The Danfoss WALRINGplus Soft Seal Cutting Ring is a two-edge cutting ring with additional soft sealing for both possible leak paths. It is optimized for easy and reliable assembly also for thin wall tubing with a design that eliminates possible root causes for leakage.

Features

  • The WALRINGplus offers a clear block-stop-assembly function which provides a feelable and clear torque increase for the operator at the end of the assembly.
  • Due to the clear block-stop-assembly function no torque is required.
  • The soft seal in the WALRINGplus prevents leakage for both possible leak paths.
  • The WALRINGplus allows the safe assembly also for very thin wall tubing without the need to use additional insert sleeves.
  • The unique design of the inner area of WALRINGplus requires a significantly lower force to pull the ring over the tube.
  • For WALRINGplus components in carbon steel no lubrication is required for assembly.
  • WALRINGplus has positioned the outer soft seal of the cutting ring on a position that allows frequent repeated assembly.
  • WALRINGplus O-Ring grooves allow an improved stress curve in the material what increases the mechanical resistance.

Value Propositions
  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

Due to the clear assembly the customer can reduce risk of failures in the application caused by wrong assembly even if unskilled operators doing the assembly.

  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

The feelable block-stop at the end of assembly allows the operator to assemble without torque which makes the assembly process simpler and reduces risk of wrong assembly.

  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

Reduced risk of leakage will reduce equipment downtime which can cause and avoids failure in the field. Soft seal ensures that leakages will also be prevented if small scratches in the tube or stud occur.

  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

With the WALRINGplus the customer is able to use very thin wall tubing in his application without additional insert sleeve which reduces material cost, space claim and overall weight of the system. Further the elimination of insert sleeves leads to reduction of components on stock.

  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

Requiring a lower force of pulling the cutting ring on the tube increases the cycle time for cutting ring assemblies and reduces the effort for operators. Also, the risk is reduced that the inner soft seal of the cutting ring is damaged during assembly.

  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

Assembling carbon steel tube lines without lubrication reduces time, effort and possible contamination in the tube assembly process. The dry assembly process enables an easy and clean assembly of tube fitting components.

  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

Enabling handling and repeated assembly without damaging the sealing of the cutting ring increases the lifetime of the tube assembly in the application and reduces the risk of leakage in the field.

  • OEM
  • Distributor
  • End User

Value Proposition Statement

The improved stress curve of WALRINGplus eliminates the risk of failed cutting ring components in the assembly process also at unfavorable usage of the given tolerance limits.
