Hammer Union Applications
There are a variety of oilfield and industrial applications for Unions. Our Weco-style unions are commonly used on hoses and pipes for easy connection and reconnection on work over rigs and drilling rigs and also other industrial uses. They are connected either by threading on to N.P.T. threads or by welding directly to pipe.

Hammer Unions are high-pressure threaded or welded connections with two halves a threaded female half and a wing male half with swivel nut that fit together and seal upon turning and then hammering the nut half together with the threaded half. Weco-style hammer unions come in sizes from 1" up to 10" and in pressures from 1,000 psi up to 15,000 psi. These type of unions are commonly used in oilfield and industrial applications to seal two pieces of pipe or hose together by making a connection via threads or welds.
We offer a full line of union swivel connections to fit a variety of applications. Unions come in N.P.T. threaded-style and welded-style and are made of heavy duty steel in sch 40 sch 80 & xxh for tough and long lasting use. Hammer unions can also be treated for use with sour gas H2S service upon request.
Hammer unions are color coded to specific pressure ratings for example a figure 1502 is red and blue nut and is rated for 15,000 psi where as a figure 100 is yellow with black nut and rated for 1,000 psi. Please see below chart for complete pressure rating and color codes for each high presure hammer union availible.
