SANDVIK ClikLoc Connector
Sandvik ClikLoc is a patented rapid-action connector suitable for demanding topside and subsea applications. Thanks to its revolutionary design, Sandvik ClikLoc reduces the time needed for make and break to 20-30 seconds, instead of the 15 to 45 minutes required by most conventional connectors.
Sandvik ClikLoc is designed according to ISO 13628-7 requirements, with either metal-to-metal seal or soft seal. A minimum of moving parts makes operation simple, safe and intuitive, without tools.
