ABSTRACT:
The invention pertains to a breakaway coupling for use with fluid systems wherein self-sealing coupling parts are interconnected by locking structure including a tubular displaceable operating member sealingly associated with a flexible conduit comprising a portion of the fluid system. Predetermined tension within the flexible conduit displaces the operating member to a coupling release position permitting the coupling parts to disengage and seal with minimum fluid loss.
