Ultimate Safety

Smith Flow Control’s Bajolock® is designed and manufactured from high quality 316L Stainless Steel and incorporates market leading gaskets, suitable for oil, gas and petrochemical industrial applications. The patented safety system ensures that operator incidents are eliminated while opening the coupler under pressure. SFC’s Bajolock® couplers are designed and manufactured according to the Pressure Equipment Directive and bear the CE mark. SFC’s Bajolock® couplers are interchangeable with existing, similar quick couplers enabling instant integration at plant.

Ultimate Protection

In the oil, gas and petrochemical industry, conventional couplings can be very dangerous as it is common for pipes or whole systems to be under pressure when couplings are opened. When opening Smith Flow Control’s patented Bajolock® quick coupler on a system that is pressurized, product is immediately trapped and automatically equalized. Any potentially harmful residual materials are automatically discharged away from the operator, after which the Bajolock® can be easily and safely uncoupled with a short twist.
