Why this coupler
- Jiffy-Tite mold-coolant interchange — which means it connects with the widely used Jiffy-Tite / Jiffy-Matic / Parker Moldmate mold coolant system.
- Fast mold-change connect — which means coolant lines couple in seconds, cutting machine downtime during changeovers.
- Wide -90F to +440F silicone seal — which means it handles hot oil and water/glycol heat-transfer systems.
- One-way valved — which means the coupler shuts off automatically on disconnect (use with valved nipples).
- Push-On barb — which means no hose clamp required with Push-On hose.
- Ball lock — which means a secure connection that resists accidental disconnect.
- 90° stem — which means clean hose routing in tight mold setups.
Frequently asked questions
Are these Jiffy-Tite couplers?
Yes — the FJT Series is the Jiffy-Tite mold-coolant interchange and also crosses Jiffy-Matic and Parker Moldmate. Foster calls it the Injection Mold / Die Coolant Series.
What is it used for?
Connecting coolant (water, water/glycol, or oil) lines to plastic injection molds and die-casting dies, for fast mold changes.
What are the ratings?
200 PSIG max working pressure, -90F to +440F with the standard silicone seal.
Valved or non-valved?
This is the one-way valved coupler. Valved couplers must be used with valved nipples; non-valved give maximum flow.
Built for the plastics and die-casting industries. Pair this coupler with the matching FJT nipple and coolant hose.
