Safety Quik® Quick-Disconnect with Protective Features

Dormont’s patented Safety Quik® valve adds a layer of safety and convenience by preventing the gas connector from being detached while gas is flowing and ensuring the valve cannot be turned on unless the hose is properly connected. An internal thermal shut-off protects against elevated temperatures near the gas supply — ideal for busy foodservice environments where safety and reliability are priorities. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
