Applications & Types: Common Hydraulic Fittings

There are many different kinds of hydraulic fittings that are used for different things. Hydraulic systems connect hydraulic hoses to hydraulic cylinders, pipe fittings, tubes, or other hydraulic hoses.

Different hydraulic fittings allow the fluid to flow, change direction, branch off, or mix. These instrumentation pipe fittings should be able to make a tight seal and keep the application from leaking. These fittings are commonly used in plumbing, robotics, assembly lines, and heavy equipment that uses hydraulics.

Stainless Steel Hydraulic Fittings

The AISI 316 grade of stainless steel is used to make hydraulic fittings that work well and last a long time. These fittings can be used in food processing, fertilizer applications, saltwater mist, and many other places. They are resistant to dust and corrosion.

When sanitary protection is needed to keep fluids from going to waste, stainless steel hydraulic fittings are a good choice. A connection made with a high-quality hydraulic fitting from Mechanical Power will not leak.

Brass Hydraulic Fittings

When it comes to auto and hydraulic work, brass hydraulic fittings are known for being strong. These are easy to take care of and do not rust very quickly. It contains everything you need to meet current standards, from bend fittings to hose fittings.

Brass hydraulic fittings are made to high standards, so they should last a long time without being damaged by the environment. Most of these fittings are suitable for car use because they can handle low pressure.

Face O-Ring Seals

Choose O-ring face seals to stop leaks and seal flat surfaces. O-Ring face seals prevent leaks when working on a hydraulic system with high pressure of 6,000 psi or more. These instrumentation pipefittings can be made from high-corrosion-resistant stainless steel or plated steel and can be used in industry or business. O-Ring face seals are the best hydraulic fittings for machines that must be very careful.

JIC Fittings

JIC is the most common type of hydraulic fitting. It has a 37-degree cone and can be attached to a tube or hose. It could save your machine in challenging situations and can be used for almost all hydraulic applications. This answers all your business needs for hose fittings, hydraulic line hose ends, and hose assemblies. These fittings meet the standards and are good for the environment because they do not rust or corrode.

Metric Din Fittings

When compatibility is a problem, the best fittings to choose are metric din fittings. These fittings are known to be popular all over the world and to be able to meet global and quality standards. Metric din hydraulic fittings can be used with tubing of the same size. These fittings seal well and can be used more than once.

Oil, gas, and construction are all excellent places to use instrumentation pipefittings. From how the compression works to how well it fits, you will find everything satisfactory in terms of how well it works and how long it lasts.

Inch compression

Inch compression is a small style that only works with several pipefittings. It is easy for a user to put these into hydraulic-hard tubing. These are good for high-pressure applications and pipes with thin walls. Compression fittings can be used more than once and are safe to connect pipes.

They keep leaks from happening, but leaks may occur if they aren’t installed correctly. They come in different materials, depending on your needs and what works best with the product.

Common Applications

Hydraulic fittings connect hydraulic hoses to pipes and tubes in the following situations: All factory applications are assembly lines, presses, robotics, and hydraulic power units.

• Tools for building and mining
• Agricultural equipment
• Applications in plumbing
• Oil and gas businesses

From the type of material to the best performance, instrumentation pipefittings can give you everything you need. Mechanical Power has a wide range of hydraulic fittings that you can count on.
