Description

Scania Radiator Quick Adapter

Brief Overview

This quick-connect radiator adapter is purpose-built for Scania 340 and 360 trucks and buses, streamlining routine coolant purging and refilling operations. The nickel-plated steel construction combines a hose-tail barb connection with a female quick-release coupling, eliminating the mess and downtime of traditional open-ended radiator work. If you service multiple Scania units, pairing this with compatible adapters for other truck brands expands your service capability across different fleet types.

Key Features

  • Quick-Release Coupling: Inner ball-bearing valve assembly enables instant connect/disconnect without fluid loss
  • Hose-Tail Barb Design: Secure 360-degree grip on standard radiator hose; prevents accidental disconnection under pressure
  • Knurled Grip Rings: High-friction cylindrical sleeve ensures positive hand control, even with wet gloves or residual coolant
  • Hex-Wrench Section: Flat-sided hexagonal body allows secure tightening with a standard wrench—critical for preventing rotation during coupling engagement
  • Nickel-Plated Steel Construction: Corrosion-resistant finish withstands repeated coolant exposure and high-humidity workshop environments
  • Zero-Spillage Operation: Integrated valve architecture contains fluid pressure; fluid remains in lines until coupling is fully seated
  • Scania-Specific Fit: Engineered for Scania 340/360 radiator systems; verified thread and barb compatibility

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • Essential Fleet Maintenance: Scania 340/360 vehicles require routine coolant service; this adapter is a must-stock item for shops servicing these platforms
  • Repeat Sales Potential: Quick adapters wear and degrade with heavy use; replacement demand ensures steady turnover
  • Service Efficiency: Reduces labor time on radiator maintenance by 30–40% compared to open-drain methods
  • Professional Image: Customers expect clean, spillage-free service; this tool signals operational competence
  • Competitive Pricing: Lower component cost than full radiator replacement kits; high margin potential on individual sales
  • Cross-Selling Opportunity: Bundle with replacement adapters for newer Scania models to capture fleet upgrade cycles
