Kochek Company, the Connecticut-based manufacturer of water flow products and fire connections, has designed and introduced a Storz Installation Tool that speeds and simplifies installation of hydrant conversion bushings when converting existing threaded fire hydrants to quick quarter-turn Storz connections. Requiring only basic tools such as ½” drive ratcheting socket, pliers, wrenches, and a drill, hydrant conversions can now be completed with precision in just minutes using Kochek’s Storz Installation Tool.
The hydrant conversion process, a 10-minute field retro-fit, involves replacing standard threaded fire hydrant connections with quarter-turn Storz connections. After conversion, fire departments can quickly and easily attach Storz equipment directly to the hydrant.
