Gates Universal Quick Disconnect (UQD)

This isn’t just another quick-connect coupling. This is an OCP-compliant, purpose- built solution for high performance data centers. As rack densities surge and liquid cooling becomes the new standard, Gates UQD couplings deliver the uncompromising performance your critical infrastructure requires. With maximum flow, reliable sealing, and compatibility with the Gates Data Master™ hose line, ensure the right configuration every time.

TOOL-FREE, HOT-SWAPPABLE COUPLINGS

In high-performance data centers, even a small leak or disruption of flow in the liquid cooling system can result in costly downtime, reduced thermal efficiency, and complex troubleshooting across systems. With rising thermal densities in racks, the pressure to get every connection right the first time has never been higher.

Gates universal quick disconnect couplings are purpose-built for liquid cooling systems in demanding data center environments - fully compatible with our Data Master hose and aligned with OCP standards to ensure the right configuration, every time. Deliver leak-free reliability, simplify system integration, and protect uptime with a trusted solution engineered for precision and performance.

Dry-break disconnection

Zero Downtime

Why shut down an entire rack for maintenance when you don’t have to? Gates UQD couplings disconnect under pressure, allowing you to change out servers, perform upgrades, or troubleshoot without missing a beat.

Smaller, Smarter

Stronger

Data centers are packed tighter than ever, and every millimeter counts. Gates UQD couplings are compact yet powerful, designed to fit high-density racks without sacrificing flow or durability.

Flow Rate Details

Whether you need barbed fittings for flexible tubing or threaded terminations for rigid systems, Gates offers the right connection to ease the flow of coolant and consistency to your data center. And with four sizes (UQD02 to UQD08), scaling your cooling infrastructure has never been easier.

What other couplings are compatible with DataMaster Hoses?

When it comes to hose assemblies, properly selected fittings are essential to making sure that your hose performs as expected.

In addition to our Gates UQD, Data Master hoses have been tested and validated with several other universal quick-disconnect couplings. Any UQD that meets OCP specifications is permissible for use with Data Master. Our team can help you select the right coupling for your needs!
