High-pressure resistance is one of the key attributes that make
swage hose fittings well-suited for critical applications in industries like aerospace, oil and gas, hydraulics, and manufacturing.
1. Robust Design and Material Selection: Swage hose fittings are constructed from sturdy materials, such as stainless steel, brass, or aluminum, which have excellent mechanical properties and can withstand high pressure. The fitting body is designed to provide structural integrity, ensuring that it can withstand the forces exerted by the fluid pressure without deformation or failure.
2. Crimping Process: The swaging process itself contributes significantly to the high-pressure resistance of these fittings. During crimping, the ferrule or sleeve is tightly compressed around the hose, creating a strong grip. This compression effectively prevents any movement or displacement of the hose, ensuring that it can handle the internal pressure without leaking or blowing off.
3. Sealing Mechanism: The crimping action not only enhances the mechanical strength of the fitting but also forms an effective sealing mechanism. The tight compression of the ferrule creates a seal between the fitting and the hose, preventing any fluid from escaping. This sealing action is essential in high-pressure systems to prevent leaks that could compromise the performance or safety of the equipment.
4. Performance Testing: Swage hose fittings undergo rigorous performance testing to ensure their high-pressure resistance. Manufacturers subject the fittings to hydrostatic pressure tests, where the fittings are exposed to pressures significantly higher than their rated working pressure. This testing verifies that the fittings can withstand extreme pressure levels without failure or leakage.
5. Compatibility with High-Pressure Hoses: Swage fittings are compatible with various high-pressure hoses, including those made from synthetic rubber, thermoplastic materials, and PTFE. The combination of the fitting's robust design and the high-pressure capabilities of these hoses ensures a reliable and secure connection in demanding applications.
6. Application-Specific Solutions: We often offer application-specific swage hose fittings designed to meet the unique requirements of high-pressure systems. These fittings may have additional reinforcement or specific features to handle the particular challenges posed by elevated pressure conditions.
7. Safety Considerations: High-pressure systems often operate in critical environments, where safety is of utmost concern. Swage hose fittings play a crucial role in ensuring the integrity of the fluid transfer system, minimizing the risk of hose blow-offs or leaks, which could lead to hazardous situations and potential accidents.
8. Compliance with Industry Standards: Swage hose fittings manufactured by us comply with industry standards and regulations. These standards ensure that the fittings meet the necessary requirements for high-pressure performance, providing peace of mind to engineers and system designers.
9. Proper Installation and Crimping: To achieve optimal high-pressure resistance, it is essential to follow proper installation and crimping procedures. Using the correct crimping tool, maintaining appropriate crimp dimensions, and adhering to the manufacturer's guidelines are crucial to ensure the fitting's full potential for high-pressure applications.
Metric Female 24°Seal Hose Fittings
Metric female 24° seal hose fittings, also known as DIN 3865 fittings, are a type of hydraulic fitting commonly used in Europe. These fittings are designed to connect metric-sized hydraulic hoses to other components in hydraulic systems.
The fitting has internal threads or a socket to receive a male fitting or component. These fittings typically have a 24° cone seat with an O-ring seal. The cone seat provides a secure connection and the O-ring seal ensures a leak-free joint.
