1 1/2″ FIG 600 Hammer Union

The 1 1/2″ Fig 600 6000 Hammer Union is precisely designed to meet Figure 600 standards, providing a high-performance solution for high-pressure applications. With a maximum pressure rating of 6,000 PSI, this hammer union offers a secure and consistent connection for industrial operations requiring strength and longevity.

What is a Hammer Union?

A hammer union is a type of heavy-duty, threaded connection used primarily in high-pressure systems, such as in the oil and gas industry, to join various pieces of equipment, pipes, or hoses. The name “hammer union” comes from the tool used to tighten or loosen the union — a hammer or hammer wrench.

These unions are designed to withstand extreme pressures, making them ideal for applications that deal with high-pressure fluids or gases. They are especially common in drilling, hydraulic fracturing (fracking), well control systems, and pipeline construction.

Features of a Hammer Union:

• Threaded Connection: A hammer union has male and female threads that interlock when tightened, ensuring a tight, leak-proof seal.
• High-Pressure Rating: These unions are built to endure the stresses of high-pressure environments, with some models able to withstand pressures of up to 6,000 PSI or higher.
• Durable Construction: They are made from high-strength materials like steel, making them suitable for challenging environments.
• Quick and Efficient: The “hammer” design enables quick assembly and disassembly, especially in situations where tools are needed to work rapidly and efficiently under pressure.
