The ORFS 45° Swept Swivel Female Hose Fitting is a specialised hydraulic fitting designed for use in high-pressure systems where optimal hose routing is essential. The 45-degree swept design offers a balance between the compactness of a straight fitting and the flexibility of a 90-degree fitting, making it ideal for systems with moderate space constraints.
Key Features
- 45° Swept Design: The 45-degree bend provides improved hose routing while minimising stress on the hose and fitting, especially in applications where a full 90-degree bend is too sharp or unnecessary.
- O-Ring Face Seal (ORFS): The O-ring face seal ensures a tight, leak-proof connection, making it suitable for hydraulic systems that operate under high pressure.
- Swivel Functionality: The swivel feature allows for easier installation, alignment, and adjustment, reducing the risk of hose twisting or stress during assembly.
- Double Hex Construction: The fitting is typically designed with a double hex, providing enhanced grip for installation and removal using standard tools.
- Corrosion-Resistant Materials: ORFS fittings are available in corrosion-resistant materials, offering longevity and durability in demanding environments.
- High Pressure and Temperature Resistance: Designed to handle the demands of high-pressure hydraulic systems, these fittings also perform reliably under extreme temperatures.
Benefits
- Enhanced Hose Routing Flexibility: The 45-degree angle allows for better hose routing in tight or awkward spaces, providing a more gradual bend than 90-degree fittings.
- Leak-Proof Operation: The O-ring face seal ensures a reliable and secure connection, preventing fluid leaks that could lead to pressure loss.
- Simplified Installation and Maintenance: The swivel function allows for easier alignment during installation, ensuring that hoses can be connected without twisting or damaging the fitting.
- Durability in Harsh Environments: The use of corrosion-resistant materials ensures that the fitting can withstand harsh environments.
- Improved System Efficiency: By maintaining a secure and leak-free connection, the ORFS 45° swept swivel fitting helps maintain consistent hydraulic pressure.
- Versatility Across Applications: This fitting is suitable for a wide range of hydraulic systems, making it a versatile choice across industries such as construction, agriculture, and industrial machinery.
