The pressure rating of a 1/2-inch hydraulic hose can vary significantly depending on the hose's construction, material, and intended application. Generally, a typical 1/2-inch hydraulic hose can have pressure ratings ranging from about 1,500 psi to over 5,000 psi. It's essential to consult the manufacturer's specifications or product datasheets for the exact pressure rating of a specific hose model.
A swivel joint specification typically outlines the design, material, size, pressure rating, and rotational capabilities of the joint. These joints are used to allow rotational movement between two connected components while maintaining a sealed environment, and specifications ensure they meet the necessary standards for the intended application, such as in piping systems or hydraulic machinery. The specifications may also include details about temperature range, sealing type, and any applicable industry standards or certifications.
Swivel fittings are connectors that allow for rotation between joined components, commonly used in plumbing, hydraulics, and pneumatic systems to prevent hose twisting and kinking. Different types include elbow swivels, which allow for angular adjustment; straight swivels, which provide axial rotation; and bulkhead swivels, which facilitate rotation through a fixed panel. These fittings come in various materials, such as brass, stainless steel, and plastic, to suit different applications and environments.
Yes, this product interchanges with Weatherhead 08U-S68 fittings. This compatibility is beneficial for users looking to replace or upgrade existing components without needing to change their entire system, offering flexibility and cost savings.
The inside diameter of the hose fitting is 1/2 inch. This size is ideal for high-pressure hydraulic systems, ensuring efficient fluid transfer and minimizing pressure drop. It is part of the 08u series.
The ORFS swivel fitting features a flat face with an O-ring seal that connects with a corresponding flat face on a male fitting. This provides a reliable and leak-free seal, even in high-pressure hydraulic applications. The O-ring face seal (ORFS) design is valuable because it minimizes the risk of leakage and ensures long-term durability in demanding environments. This specific fitting is also known as 08u, which interchanges with Weatherhead 08U-S68.
The ORFS swivel fitting is 1/2 inch in size. This ensures compatibility with various hydraulic components and allows for seamless integration into existing systems, commonly referred to as "08u".
