04 VULKAN LOKRING

For more than 30 years now, VULKAN Lokring‘s success has 

been founded on worldwide patented, unique connecting elements 

for refrigerant lines. Originally developed for the absolute 

extreme conditions of space technology, we have continually 

improved our connections to meet the requirements of air conditioning 

technology, thus developing into the leading specialist in 

this area on the world‘s market. 

In the meantime, more than 1,000,000,000 LOKRING ® tube 

connections have been successfully used in the industrial volume 

production of vehicle air conditioning systems, cooling and freezing 

units. Every year, several million vehicles leave the production 

lines at leading vehicle manufacturers with LOKRING ® technology 

installed. The expert knowledge we have gained as an original 

equipment manufacturer to the automotive industry can of course 

be drawn on continually for our tube and hose connections for the 

field of automotive servicing, too. This allows VULKAN Lokring to 

provide a coordinated range of service-optimised tube and hose 

connections with TÜV certificate and in OEM quality. 

LOKTRACE is the first method that meets all the requirements on 

a leak detection system for vehicle air conditioning systems. 

In combination with the repair system LOKRING ® & LOKCLIP, 

VULKAN Lokring offers the complete package for finding the leak 

and repairing the leak. 

Make the most of VULKAN Lokring‘s experience and services as 

your best connection!

LOKTRACE 

FIND THE LEAK! 

LOKTRACE gas, which is a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen, 

is filled into the air conditioning system for leak detection. 

LOKTRACE gas is non-flammable, non-toxic, non-corrosive and 

not harmful to the environment. Hydrogen molecules 

are the smallest naturally occurring particles and escape from 

minimum leaks. With the help of the LOKTRACER TLD.500 or 

LOKTRACER TLD.1000 the tiniest leaks can be detected. 

The leak detectors react almost exclusively to hydrogen with nearly 

no cross-sensitivities to other gases. 

In compliance with EU directive 2006/40/EG 

Leak detectors with patented double-sensor 

Detecting smaller leaks 

Nearly no cross-sensitivity to other gases 

Easy checking of the evaporator 

Suitable for air conditioning systems using HFO-1234yf 

Illustration: Evaporator test 

The hydrogen molecules escape at the leak in the evaporator and get inside the passenger compartment through the ventilation slots.

THERE‘S A NAME FOR PROFESSIONAL TUBE REPAIRS: LOKRING 

14 LOKRING

LOKRING ASSEMBLY 

ONE JOINT, TWO RINGS, 4 STEPS – THAT‘S ALL THERE IS TO IT. 

STEP 01 | CLEAN THE TUBE ENDS 

To ensure that the connection is hermetically sealed, the tube ends have to be 

metallically bright. First, use our abrasive mat to remove all soiling. In order to 

prevent longitudinal grooves, the tube ends have to be cleaned in a rotary direction. 

Avoid sanding movements in the longitudinal direction of the tube. 

STEP 02 | APPLY LOKPREP 

Next; moisten the whole tube circumference with LOKPREP by guiding the bottle 

360° around the outside of the tube. Apply the LOKPREP a little away from the 

cut edge to prevent it getting onto the inside of the tube. 

Depending on the repair situation, there are several different possibilities of 

applying LOKPREP over an area. 

STEP 03 | INSERT TUBES 

Next; insert the tubes with the LOKPREP film into the joint. 

Make sure that the ends of the tubes are inserted to the inner limit and remain 

fixed in this position during assembly. 

STEP 04 | PRESS INTO PLACE 

Finally; apply the manual assembly tool to the union joint so that the 

LOKRINGs are seated squarely in the assembly jaws and then press the 

LOKRINGs axially onto the joint until they meet at the centre stop. – Ready to go.

ASSEMBLY TOOLS 

FOR LOKRING CONNECTIONS 

LOKTOOL: MZ-V | Hand assembly tool 

LOKTOOL hand assembly tool* 

The flexible model. The MZ-V was developed for use 

in areas that are difficult to access. Since the handles 

are offset on both sides, the MZ-V is also suitable for 

flexible use during work in the engine compartment. 


L13002811 LOKTOOL MZ-V Hand assembly tool 

*Supplied without assembly jaws. 

LOKTOOL: MB EVP | Assembly jaws 

LOKTOOL assembly jaws* for LOKRING 

The assembly jaws fit the hand assembly tools 

LOKTOOL MZ and LOKTOOL MZ-V. They can be replaced 

easily and quickly, thus enabling LOKRING 

assembly on different tube diameters using only one tool.

LOKPREP: 65G | Anaerobic sealant 

LOKPREP 65G, sealant for LOKRING assembly 

LOKPREP was developed especially for LOKRING assembly 

and always has to be used wherever LOKRINGs 

are to be fitted. 

LOKPREP compensates possible unevenness in the 

tube surface, thus guaranteeing that every LOKRING 

connection is hermetically sealed.

LOKCLIP 

THE BEST SYSTEM FOR HOSE CONNECTIONS 

26 LOKCLIP

LOKCLIP ASSEMBLY 

EXPENSE? – YOU CAN COUNT IT ON THE FINGERS OF ONE HAND. 

STEP 01 | INSERT STAINLESS STEEL CLIPS 

Insert the two stainless steel clips in the clip position holder in such a way that 

the clips are easily accessible for the subsequent pressing process using the 

assembly tool. 

STEP 02 | INSERT HOSE INTO POSITION HOLDER 

Insert the hose into the position holder with pre-mounted clips as far as it will go. 

STEP 03 | LUBRICATE AND PUSH IN JOINT 

Lubricate the joint with a little refrigerant oil. This allows it to be pushed into the 

end of the hose more easily. Then push the joint into the hose as far as it will go. 

STEP 04 | PRESS INTO PLACE 

Press the stainless steel clips using the hand assembly tool. Start with the clip 

positioned at the side of the hose. 

STEP 05 | SETTING UP A TUBE CONNECTION 

The LOKCLIP connection is ready to use! Now, as shown with this variant, you 

can connect a tube on the other side with the aid of a LOKRING as before. For 

a more detailed explanation of LOKRING assembly see page 15. In the case of 

a hose-to-hose connection, the steps shown here are repeated.
