Gore Engineering vs OilQuick

OilQuick is the specialist that turned the quick-coupler into a fully-automatic in-cab operation. Gore Engineering is the supplier of the attachments that mount to the coupler, with longer warranty on drive units and 2-5 day Sweden delivery.

The honest take

OilQuick built a real product. The fully-automatic hydraulic coupler is a workflow shift, not a marginal upgrade. The operator switches buckets without leaving the cabin. If that workflow improvement matters to your operation, OilQuick is the right purchase.

But OilQuick is a coupler company. Once the coupler is on the machine, you still need attachments to mount to it. That's where Gore Engineering comes in. Our S-mount range, S30 to S70, covers every standard interface, and our packages are built around the machine class, not the coupler brand.

Where OilQuick wins: fully-automatic coupler change, which is a category they essentially own. Where Gore wins: the actual attachment range that runs on the coupler, hammers, augers, buckets, grapples, with up-to-5-year drive unit warranty.

The two aren't competitors so much as complementary. If you run an OilQuick coupler, you'll still need attachments. Gore is one of the most direct ways to source them.

Where Gore wins

Attachment depth, not coupler depth. OilQuick's catalogue isn't built around the working end. Gore's is. Hammers across every standard mount class, drive units with 5-year warranty, package kits sized to machine class.

Standard ISO mounts. Gore attachments use standard S-class mounts. They mount through any coupler that supports the ISO interface, including OilQuick.
