MB began in 1956 to produce, on his own drawings, the S series screw-on quick-release couplings: this is very popular in Italy but it
is also well known abroad. Now MB is the only producer in the world of the all sizes. Mechanical strength and the impossibility of
an accidental release of the male from the female make very safe the use of these screw-on couplings: they are very suitable in
heavy hydraulic applications either for adverse environment conditions or for high work pressures. Fields of application: industry,
iron industry, oil plant, earth moving machinery and similar service vehicles.
