Without quick connects, disconnecting a hydraulic hose means losing fluid and introducing air into the system, which requires a full bleed procedure to restore proper steering feel. The quick connect design retains fluid on both sides of the connection when disconnected, making reconnection and re-pressurization straightforward. Confirm these ends are compatible with your specific SeaStar hose and cylinder configuration before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LNS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51250854199332,"sku":"1-HP6170","price":216.19,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/5799\/7604\/files\/3ee02df7-f6c0-4523-be88-8cbbbab400b7.png?v=1787339619","url":"https:\/\/marisolmarine.com\/products\/seastar-quick-connect-hose-ends-1-hp6170","provider":"Marisol Marine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
