To Our Valued Customers,

       Eaton Hydraulics Group will implement price adjustments effective June 1, 2011. Eaton states that the adjustments

       are needed as a result of the continued escalation of various raw material costs and other costs including

       transportation, energy, etc.  This adjustment will vary by product line, depending on the type and content of

       material used in the product. This effects orders scheduled to be delivered after June 1, 2011. This increase does

       not apply to carbon steel adapters at this time. Price adjustments to the adapters will be addressed at a later

       date.

2009

 

       Eaton - Aeroquip extends their product offering on TTC fittings.  168 New TTC Fittings have been released!

       Click Here to view new fitting catalog.

         Eaton - Aeroquip has announced the phase out of FC662 Series Socketless Hose.  This hose is to be replaced by

       Eaton Industrial Hose H201 Series. Click Here for more information on H201 Series Hose.

         Eaton announced the phase-out of FC659 Series Hose.  FC659 will be migrated to GH493 Series Hose.  GH493 has

       been tested to 1/2 bend radius, competitive pressures and has a cover that provides 8 times more abrasion that

       the traditional hose. GH493 Series Hose matches PSI ratings for all sizes, and uses the same fittings. This

       transition will be taking place during the next 8-12 months.

 
 
2008
 

       Eaton has announced an upgrade for the TTC fitting line in the 45° and 90° elbows. The upgrade will be from a

       two-piece brazed nipple to a one-piece bent nipple.  Initially only the -8, 45° elbow JIC/SAE 37° female swivel

       and 90° long drop elbow JIC/SAE 37° female swivel will be affected.

       For a period of time, you may receive mixed shipments of both the old and new designs. No changes have been

       made to fitting dimensions or crimp diameters.

       By changing to a one-piece design we will strengthen the fitting by eliminating a braze joint as well as making

       these fittings more resilient to impulsing and vibration. Eaton has announced that they will be implementing the

       same design change on other sizes of the TTC fittings.

 

2007

        Eaton announced the phase-out of Aeroquip Polyon Thermoplastic Hose & Fittings.  With their acquisition of

        Synflex, Eaton has consolidated the thermoplastic lines into one offering.

        Eaton replaced Aeroquip / Everflex FC807 PTFE Teflon Hose with Everflex S-TW Series Hose.
