Product description

This velocity fuse is a critical safety device designed to prevent the catastrophic collapse of a hydraulic lift in the event of a hose failure. Featuring a 4 GPM (gallons per minute) flow rating and a 3/8-inch 90-degree elbow configuration, it is used in Snap-on and John Bean 2-post and 4-post lift systems. If a hydraulic line ruptures, the velocity fuse detects the sudden increase in flow and immediately locks the cylinder, holding the vehicle in place. This elbow-style fuse is typically mounted directly to the cylinder port to ensure maximum protection. Maintaining functional velocity fuses is a non-negotiable safety requirement for any shop operating overhead vehicle lifting equipment.
