Sloan's new patented Swing-Away/Shut-Off gladhand features an integral shut-off valve, which prevents contaminants from entering the air delivery system. Polyurethane gaskets ensure a positive seal and the 45-degree angle makes coupling and uncoupling faster and easier. Sloan engineered this gladhand as a single unit with fewer components to decrease wear and increase durability. Drivers benefit because they no longer need to use a dummy coupler to seal the gladhand.
