Q1, What is two-piece host fittings
Two-piece hose fittings consist of a separate hose ferrule (or sleeve) and a hose insert (or stem) that are crimped together onto the hose. This type of fitting allows for flexibility in assembling hoses since the ferrule and insert can be mixed and matched based on the hose type and application.
Q2,Difference Between Two-Piece and One-Piece Hose Fittings？
| Feature | Two-Piece Hose Fittings | One-Piece Hose Fittings |
|---|---|---|
| Design | Separate ferrule and insert | Ferrule and insert are pre-attached |
| Assembly | Requires selecting the correct ferrule and stem before crimping | Pre-assembled, simplifying installation |
| Flexibility | Can use different ferrules for different hoses | Designed for specific hose types only |
| Inventory Management | Requires stocking both inserts and ferrules separately | Fewer part variations, reducing stock complexity |
| Crimping Process | Needs careful selection of ferrule and crimping parameters | Faster and easier crimping since components are pre-matched |
