LOKRING & LOKCLIPFOR THE BEST CONNECTIONS IN VEHICLESRepairs and replacement of tubes and hoses in vehicle air-conditioning systems

TRIED-AND-TRUSTED MILLIONS OF TIMES THE WORLD OVER: THE LOKLOKRING AND LOKCLIP USED FOR VEHICLE REPAIR JOBS.VULKAN LOKRING supplies a perfect range of tube and hoseconnections for repairs and replacement of refrigerant lines invehicle air-conditioning systems. The system provides you with alow-cost possibility of eliminating almost any damage to vehicleair-conditioning systems without having to wait for expensivespare parts. Depending on the installation situation, the faulty linemay not even have to be removed. Help your customers towardsa pleasant climate in their vehicle, on-the-spot – in Original Equipmentquality!The connection systems LOKRING and LOKCLIP provide repairalternatives based on current vehicle value without soldering,welding or thread cutting being necessary. Enabling you toavoid circuit soiling caused by scale and oxides. And to benefitfrom maximum flexibility – for cars, trucks, buses or specialvehicles. With LOKRING and LOKCLIP you always have the suit-able solution for every vehicle type, manufacturer and modelyear.THE ADVANTAGES OF THE LOKRING PRINCIPLEFor universal use, independent of the vehicle type andmodel yearNo waiting for expensive original spare partsTÜV-testedNo welding, soldering or thread cutting necessaryClean: No residue in the pipelineRepair alternatives based on current vehicle valueEco-friendly and harmless connection technology and repairUsed by OEMs

LOKRING ASSEMBLYONE JOINT, TWO RINGS, 4 STEPS – THAT‘S ALL THERE IS TO IT.THE COMPONENTS OF A LOKRING CONNECTION1 2 3 41 Joint2 LOKRINGs3 Hand assembly tool withassembly jaws4 LOKPREPSTEP 01 | CLEAN THE TUBE ENDSTo ensure that the connection is hermetically sealed, the tube ends have to bemetallically bright. First, use our abrasive mat to remove all soiling. In order toprevent longitudinal grooves, the tube ends have to be cleaned in a rotary direction.Avoid sanding movements in the longitudinal direction of the tube.STEP 02 | APPLY LOKPREPNext; moisten the whole tube circumference with LOKPREP by guiding the bottle360° around the outside of the tube. Apply the LOKPREP a little away from thecut edge to prevent it getting onto the inside of the tube. Depending on the repairsituation, there are several different possibilities of applying LOKPREP over an area- see opposite.STEP 03 | INSERT TUBESNext; insert the tubes with the LOKPREP film into the joint. Make sure that theends of the tubes are inserted to the inner limit and remain fixed in this positionduring assembly.STEP 04 | PRESSFinally; apply the manual assembly tool to the union joint so that the LOKRINGsare seated squarely in the assembly jaws and then press the LOKRINGs axiallyonto the joint until they meet at the centre stop. - That’s it.

These production-related faults can be compensatedquite easily by moistening the tube ends to be connectedwith LOKPREP fluid before assembly. Thanks to its capillarycharacteristic, it can even flow into microscopic cavities and fillthese out completely. LOKPREP is not an adhesive, rather ananaerobic sealant which hardens under oxygen exclusion andin contact with free metal ions.Its elastic structure is permanently retained in a temperaturerange of -50 to +150°C – thus compensating material-specificdeformations due to fluctuations in temperature. SinceLOKPREP does not contain solvents which have to evaporateduring hardening, the finished connection is ready for useshortly after assembly.LOKPREP 65GAnaerobic sealantArticle no.

Then push the joint into the tube as far as it will go.STEP 04 | PRESSPress the stainless steel clips using the hand assembly tool. Start with the clippositioned at the side of the tube.STEP 05 | SET UP A TUBE CONNECTIONThe LOKCLIP connection is ready to use! Now, as shown with this variant, youcan connect a tube on the other side with the aid of a LOKRING as before. For amore detailed explanation of LOKRING assembly see pages 04/05. In the caseof a tube-to-tube connection, the steps shown here are repeated.

LOKCLIP ASSEMBLY | MATERIAL COMBINATIONS 0 6 | 07LOKRING AND LOKCLIP MATERIAL COMBINATIONSDOESN‘T WORK? - THERE‘S NO SUCH THING!The LOKRING and LOKCLIP connection technology will makeit easier for you to repair connections in the refrigerant circuit.Conventional methods such as soldering, welding or threadcuttingare time-consuming, cause damaging soiling and lead toweak spots in the refrigerant circuit.In contrast, the LOKRING/LOKCLIP system offers you thepossibility of connecting a wide range of different materials toeach other - without diminishing the quality of the connection incomparison to expensive original spare parts.LOKRING MATERIAL COMBINATIONSLOKCLIP MATERIAL COMBINATIONSMATERIAL ASSIGNMENTSteelBrassAluminiumHose materialCopperWhat can you connect using LOKRINGs? There‘s a simple answer to that: Allthe metal tubes used in air-conditioning and cooling technology with a wallthickness of 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm. There is almost no limit to the combinationvariations here. One rule of thumb is: If at least one of the tubes to be connectedis made of aluminium, an aluminium LOKRING must be used as well.In all other cases, a brass LOKRING is used.With the LOKCLIP it’s also a case of “Doesn’t work? - there’s no such thing!”As shown, you can connect every hose either with a hose connection or anyother material used for tubes in air-conditioning and cooling technology.

QUICK. EASY. AND HERMETICALLY SEALED.LOKRING AND LOKCLIP A CLEAN TEAM.REPAIRS WITHLOKRING AND LOKCLIPCONVENTIONALREPAIRSNO WAITING FOR EXPENSIVE SPARE PARTSNo matter whether it‘s a car, truck, commercial vehicle or bus. No matterwhich manufacturer or model year it is. You will always have the suitablesolution with LOKRING & LOKCLIP. Where other service providers are stilllooking for the right original spare part and have to put up with long deliverytimes, your vehicles are back on the road. Your customers do not have towait!SIMPLE ASSEMBLYLOKRINGs and LOKCLIPs can be pressed into place extremely easily usingonly one tool and in next to no time. In most cases, you can carry outassembly directly in the engine compartment without having to remove thefaulty refrigerant tube. Saving you time and money.HERMETICALLY SEALED AND PRESSURE-RESISTANTThe German Technical Board (TÜV) confirms: LOKRING connections arehermetically sealed and pressure-resistant up to 50 bar (with four times thesafety). Burst pressure tests have shown: The tube is more likely to yield thana LOKRING. Tensile loads of up to 2 tonnes are no problem for the connectioneither. It‘s not for nothing that the system, which has proved its worth millionsof times over, is used by leading air-conditioning manufacturers. The LOKCLIPsystem meets the requirements of the international standard SAE J2064 andreduces refrigerant loss by up to 74% compared with conventional systems.NEAT AND TIDY SOLUTIONFaulty tubes are still often soldered or welded. The result: soiling such asscale or solder residue often gets into the air-conditioning circuit and damagethe whole system. One problem you don’t even have to think about withLOKRING & LOKCLIP. The refrigerant keeps clean – and every connection isa neat and tidy solution.VULKAN LOKRING
