Q: What are Weco Unions and who makes them? How can I eliminate the hazards?

A: Weco Hammer Unions are connectors for temporary pipe and flow line installations. FMC acquired the original Weco company in the 1950s. The design is old, and used in steel and chemical plants, marine dredging vessels, strip mines and the oil industry.

You can eliminate the hazards by destroying 2″ 602 & 1002 Weco unions or old Guilberson Unions found in your operation and use only 1502 Thread Halfs (female sub) Use only Unions supplied by FMS and in good condition to ensure they hold rated pressure.
