Introduction to common joint types

The joints are divided into many different types as necessary parts of hydraulic pipes and other pipes. As a professional manufacturer, the following introduces the common joint types.

1, NPTF conical threaded joint
Note: This is a dry-sealed thread; it is a domestic tapered pipe thread used to transport fuel. It can be used for both external and internal thread end joints. NPTF external threads can be mated with NPTF, NPSF or NPSM internal threads. NPTF pipe joints are similar to BSPT pipe joints but not interchangeable. The pitch of most sizes of threads is different and the profile angle is 60 °, while the profile angle of BSPT threads is 55 °.
2.JIC37 ° tapered female connector
Note: The 37 ° cone angle (JIC) Association of Automotive Engineers (SAE) stipulates that 37 ° cone angle or cone seat can be used for high-pressure hydraulic pipelines. This type of fitting is often referred to as a JIC fitting. The JIC external thread is straight and can only be matched with the JIC internal thread. The JIC external thread is straight and has a 37 ° conical seating surface. The JIC internal thread is also a straight thread and has a 37 ° conical seating surface. The seal is formed at the 37 ° cone seat surface. Some sizes of threads are the same as SAE 45 ° cone angle threads. The cone angle should be carefully measured to distinguish them.
3.SAE45 ° taper male connector
Explanation: SAE (45 ° cone angle) This is the term used for pipe joints with a 45 ° cone angle or cone seat. This joint is usually used for soft copper pipes because the material is easy to machine to 45 °. This fitting is suitable for low pressure applications-for example for fuel and refrigeration lines. SAE45 ° taper external thread can only be matched with SAE45 ° taper internal thread. The SAE external thread is straight and has a 45 ° conical seating surface. The SAE internal thread is also straight and has a 45 ° conical seating surface. Its seal is formed at the 45 ° cone seat surface. Some thread sizes are the same as SEA37 ° taper threads. The taper angle should be carefully measured for zoning.
4. O-ring end seal male screw joint
Note: The O-ring end seal external thread can only cooperate with the O-ring end seal internal thread. The external thread is a straight thread with an O-ring; the internal thread is a straight thread with a sealing end. The external thread is sealed at the O-ring. The internal thread is sealed at the sealing end face.

5, O-shaped flange-SAEJ518
Note: SAEJ518SAE61 and 62-type four-bolt split flanges are generally widely used to connect pumps and motors worldwide.
6, O-ring flat seal fixed external thread joint
Note: A seal is formed when the O-ring on the male screw joint comes in contact with the plane on the female screw joint. In the hydraulic system, an elastomer seal can be used to control the leakage, and this type of leakage can be used when the leakage prevention function is extremely important Pipe joint.
7, compression sleeve type pipe joint
Note: The fixed sleeve type external thread joint can only be matched with the compressed sleeve type internal thread nut and the pressure sleeve. The male connector is a straight thread with a 24 ° cone. The female thread head is straight and has a compression sleeve as a sealing surface. The seal is formed between the compression sleeve and the 24 ° cone seat of the external thread joint, and between the compression sleeve and the inner tube of the internal thread joint.
