Celebrating 50 years in Hydraulics

Distag QCS (UK) Ltd, previously known as Flexequip Ltd, was founded in July 1971 and began manufacturing hydraulic couplings to service a large home and export market across the world through a distribution network.

The Flexequip brand has been synonymous with designing and manufacturing high-quality hydraulic couplings for over 50 years. From the early days of re-usable couplings, and braised adapters, to the current range of one & two-piece fittings, the FH logo is widely recognised across Europe, UK, and the Middle East.

Following the acquisition by the Distag group in 2006, the company has continued to expand the product range and service provided, and today we carry over 10,000 active hydraulic component SKUs, including hose, fittings, adapters, QR couplings, valves, motors, cylinders, clamps & hose protection.

In addition to the components provided, Distag also manufacture hose assemblies, manipulated steel tube assemblies, and build hydraulic kits according to customer specification.

While the name may have changed, and the product range expanded, we are proud to have some members of the team still with us today, who have been on this journey with the company for over 30 and 40 years; and witnessed the continuous development and improvement in hydraulic couplings.

We welcome you to take a look at our new celebration catalogue, and see some of the products which will take us into next 50 years phase.
