The Walther HG-004 high pressure refueling coupling was the first coupling
worldwide manufactured and tested according to the SAE J2600 standard for
refueling motor vehicles using gaseous hydrogen up to 10,150psi working
pressure. In order to meet the demands required of the high pressure motor
vehicle refueling application, the patented HG-004 coupling system uses a newly
developed valve technique, special seal qualities and a new locking
system. Connection and disconnection of the coupling requires a simple one
handed "push-pull" operation.
Although new in design, the HG-004 high pressure adapter (vehicle side) is
compatible with the lower pressure couplings (fuel side) found at many filling
stations supplying gaseous hydrogen.

HG-006 Break-away
The HG-006 coupling is a 6mm bore, inline break-away coupling manufactured of
stainless steel and special alloys. Pressure balanced design ensures the break
away force is virtually unaffected by the internal pressure. The spherical
mounting surface allows the coupling to align with the filling hose. With a
maximum working pressure of 10,150 (700bar), this HG series coupling system is a
top performer.
