Technology
Today’s hose and fitting technology must meet the constantly increasing
challenges and requirements of modern machines and equipment in
demanding applications and arduous environments.
To satisfy these needs, Parker is continuously developing new
state-of-the-art products and technologies.
Parkrimp No-Skive Technology – the safe connection

Hose fittings have an impact on the overall efficiency and safety of a hydraulic system.
The No-Skive concept was launched by Parker Hannifin some 30 years ago but continual
development and the use of modern materials and production techniques have resulted in a
state-of-the-art hose to fitting connector.
No-Skive versus
Traditional Skive Fittings
• Assembly of No-Skive hose and

fittings does not require removal of
the outer cover of the hose:
Skive
• Premature hose failure caused
by under or over skiving is
avoided.
• The steel wire reinforcement is
protected against corrosion.
• The steel wire reinforcement is
mechanically protected during
hose fitting assembly by the
outer rubber cover.
• No-Skive fittings are designed so
that the teeth of the shell bite down
No-Skive
to the wire to give a metal-to-metal
grip.
Parker Hose Products Division defines the power-grip connection between the crimp fitting and
the hydraulic hose as the critical zone in all flexible hose connections. Correct combination of
Parker No-Skive hose and fittings guarantees a total form lock connection between shell and
reinforcement and assures a safe and leak free long service life.
Going Green: The implications for hoses
Protecting the environment and controlling

pollution are gaining momentum in response
to priorities being set by governments and
local authorities; it is becoming an important
factor in the production of many products.
Whether in municipal vehicles, construction
equipment, agricultural machinery or
forestry vehicles, the trend towards using
biodegradable oil in hydraulic systems is
increasing.
Hose Products Division Europe offers a full
range of hoses with pure nitrile inner tubes,
from 1 and 2 wire braided through to
6-layer multi-spiral hoses. These hoses offer
exceptional hydraulic oil and biodegradable
oil compatibility up to 100 °C together with the
advantage of no loss in pressure capability.
Hybrid Push-Lok Technology – the excellent

combination of two basic materials
Through interactive development of both
materials and manufacturing processes, the
combination of polyurethane and synthetic
elastomer has successfully resulted in the
creation of a hybrid Push-Lok hose, with
exceptional technical properties.
• Hose cover made of high-quality
polyurethane, featuring high resistance
to welding spatter and abrasion.
• The high tensile textile braid reinforcement
ensures a firm grip of the hose onto the
fitting and prevents it from pulling off.
• Synthetic elastomer core tube resistant
to hydraulic fluids, dry air, water, water
emulsions, etc.

Hose and Fittings Terminology

– The basics !
Selecting the right hose and fittings combination usually belongs to the last steps in the
design of a hydraulic system and its importance is often overlooked and underestimated.
The right hose and fitting combination is however, vital for the overall functionality and
long term service life of the complete system.
This technical handbook and catalogue will provide a guide to correct hose and fitting
selection, as well as highlighting the important safety aspects to their usage as hose
assemblies in the field.
Cover Hose
Insulation/ Typically a rubber hose is constructed of an extruded
Separation layer inside synthetic rubber tube that has the sole
purpose to keep the conveyed fluid in the hose.
The elastomeric nature of rubber requires that a
reinforcement layer be wound or braided around the
tube in order to hold the internal pressure.
The reinforcement layer(s) are either textile or steel
Steel wire braided (or both).
reinforcement To protect these inner layers of the hose from the
ambient conditions, an outer synthetic rubber cover
is extruded around the reinforcement.
Inside tube
Hose Assemblies
Hose Assemblies Installation
The combination of a hose and hose fitting(s) to make a hose assembly, is a critical process that needs
to be carried out by professionally trained personnel who follow strict assembly instructions.
Improperly assembled hose fittings can separate from the hose and may cause serious injury or
property damage from whipping hose, or from fire or explosion of vapor expelled from the hose.
(See „Safe Hose Assemblies in 8 Steps“, Page Aa-8)
The hose assembly must be operated within specific limits to maximise a safe and long term service
life. These limits are defined in this catalogue and also by both governmental standards and institutional
organisation’s and specifications such as the ISO 17165-2, SAE J1273 or EN982.
Aa-1 Catalogue 4400/UK

– The basics
Working Pressure
Hose and fitting selection must be made so that the published maximum
recommended working pressure of the Hose and fitting are equal to, or greater
than the maximum system pressure. Surge pressures or peak transient pressures
in the system must be below the maximum working pressure of the hose assembly.
Surge pressures and peak pressures can usually only be determined by sensitive
electrical instrumentation that measures and indicates pressures at mili-second
intervals. Mechanical pressure gauges indicate only average pressures and cannot
be used to determine surge pressures or peak transient pressures.
Proof Pressure Test

This test is typically carried out on customer request according to a method defined by the ISO 1402
standard. The test should be made at normal ambient temperature with a proof test bench using water
or another suitable liquid. The hose assembly should be pressurised for between 30 to 60 seconds at
twice the working presusre of the hose assembly. There should be no leakage or pressure drop.
A complete test report should be provided together with the hose assembly to the customer.
Burst Pressure
All hoses in this catalogue have a pressure design
factor of 4:1, implying therefore that the burst pressure
(hose destruction) is minimum 4 times the published
working pressure.
Published burst pressure ratings for hose are for
manufacturing test purposes only – burst pressure
should never play a role in the selection of a hose. x x x
Fluid Compatibility
The hose assembly (hose inner tube, hose outer cover and hose fittings) must be chemically
compatible to both the fluid being conveyed by the hose as well as the medium surrounding it.
(the chemical resistance table contained in the catalogue, indicates only the resistance of the
hose innertube to the respective fluid)
Temperature Range Temperature range

In order not to negatively effect the properties of the rubber hoses it
should be made certain that fluid and ambient temperatures, both steady
and transient, do not exceed the limitations of the hose as published in d
the catalogue. Temperatures below and above the recommended limit +100
will degrade the hose and failure may occur and release fluid.
The mechanical properties of the hose are also influenced by low or high
d
-50
d
temperatures and should be considered when designing the system.

– The basics
Hose Size
The power transmitted by means of a pressurised fluid varies with pressure and rate of flow.
The size of the components must be adequate to keep pressure drops to a minimum and avoid
aging due to heat generation or excessive fluid velocity.
Parker uses the internationally recognised hose dash size as a measurement of the size of their hoses.
This size is a measurement of the inside tube of the hose – not the wall outer diameter.

Hose Bending Radius Hose

The minimum bend radius of a hose refers to the minimum radius that
the hose may be bent through whilst operating at the maximum allowable
published working pressure. r
Bending radius is not a measurement or indicator of hose flexibility.
The catalogue specified values of bending radii are based on international
or Parker specifications and have been proven through rigorous impulse Bending Radius
testing of the hose assemblies.
Bending the hose below the minimum bending radius leads to loss
of mechanical strength and hence possible hose failure.
A minimum straight length of 1,5 times the hose’s outside diameter (D) shall
be allowed between the hose fitting and the point at which the bend starts.
INCORRECT CORRECT

– The basics
Hose Assembly Routing

The routing of a hose assembly in such a manner so as to avoid any damage to the hose by stretching,
compression, kinking or abrasion over sharp edges is essential, to assure maximum service life and
safety.
Hose and Fittings Storage

A system of age control shall be maintained to ensure that hose is used before its shelf life has
expired. Shelf life is the period of time when it is reasonable to expect the hose to retain full
capabilities for rendering the intended service. Hose shall be stored in a manner that facilitates
age control and first-in, first-out (FIFO) usage based on the manufacturing date on the hose or
hose assembly.
The shelf life of rubber hose in bulk form or hose made from two or more materials is 40 quarters
(10 years) from the date of manufacture, if stored in accordance with ISO 2230. (The shelf life of
thermoplastic and polytetrafluoroethylene hose is considered to be unlimited). If visual inspection
gives rise to any doubts as to the functionality of the hose (cracks in the cover, rust etc), pressure
testing should be carried out before use or the hose should be disposed of. Hose assemblies
should always be considered as safety relevant components, so no risks should be taken.
Hose storage – Best practices:

– Store in a cool dry area (≈ room temperature)
– Avoid direct sun light or moisture
– Do not store near high power electrical equipment
– Avoid contact with corrosive chemicals
– Avoid Ultraviolet light >
– Insects/Rodents

– Radioactive materials
Fittings storage – Best practices:

– Additionally to the factors above the following points should be observed for storage of hose fittings
– Store fittings in clearly marked closed containers such as the original Parker packaging.
– A stock rotation system (FIFO) should be in place so that a shelf life of 2 years is not exceeded for
fittings with O-rings as they may degrade as a result of normal environmental conditions, leading to
possible system leakages or contamination.

Technical Handbook
! SAFETY FIRST !
Avoid injury to yourself and others
by following these important rules
Select proper hose assemblies for the application.

Product choice must be based on published hose specifications
and must fit the application requirements. Many factors and
conditions affecting the inside and outside of the hose must be taken
into account.
Refer to the standards, regulations and directories that
apply in the countries where the equipment is sold and
used.
Follow hose assembly installation good practice!
Hose must not be stretched, kinked, crushed or twisted during
installation or use. Hose must not be bent to less than the
minimum bend radius.
Use proper safety protection when manufacturing,
testing or installing hose assemblies
Parker Hannifin recommends hose and fitting combinations
�� in this catalog only after completing extensive testing
– only use approved hose and fitting combinations.

Safe Hose Assemblies in 8 Steps
1 Application
Some applications allow a relatively simple hose selection, eg suction/return lines. Usually however, it is prudent
to consider the points below and use them as a guide to help assure all factors have been taken into account.
Using the data acquired from considering these points will lead to correct product choice and help assure safety,
long service life and optimises the overal cost of the hose assembly.
What is the application of the hose?

– Machine / Equipment type?
– Suction application?
– Working and surge pressures?
– Fluid and/or Ambient temperature?
– Fluid compatibility?
– Non-Conductive Hose Required?
Where will the hose be used?

– Environmental conditions?
– Minimum bend radius?
– Routing requirements? /Clamps, protection sleeves?
– Is the hose exposed excessive abrasion?
– Is the hose subject to Mechanical Loads?
Need to meet national, legal, industry or customer Standards?

– Thread Type? / Does the thread type withstand the system pressure?
– Specific hose construction prescribed?
2 Size
The power transmitted by means of a pressurised fluid varies with pressure and rate of flow.
The size of the components (hose and fittings) must be adequate to keep pressure drops to a
minimum and avoid damage due to heat generation or excessive fluid velocity. ��

3 Pressure
Hose and fitting selection must be made so that the maximum recommended working pressure of the hose
assembly is equal to or greater than the maximum system pressure. Surge pressures or peak pressures
must be below this maximum working pressure. ��
��
��
Throughout the catalogue the pressures are specified in Mega Pascals. ��
��
��
eg. 27,6 Mpa = 276 bar = 4000 psi

Hose fitting’s pressure rating

� � � � � � � ��
��
��
��
�
��
�
This is a subject often neglected by both designers and

��
�
��
�
��
�
��
�
��
producers of hose assemblies alike. The pressure rating

�
��
��
�
��
�
��
��
�
of a hose assembly is determined by the pressure rating of

��
�
��
�
��
�
��
�
the component in the hose assembly with the

��
lowest working pressure.

��
Considering therefore only the pressure rating of the hose is NOT enough! Quite often the pressure rating of the
fittings can lie below that of the hose; so to avoid any safety risks caused by non-compatibility of the fittings for the
desired system pressure rating, the maximum working pressures of the Parker fittings in this catalogue can be
found in Page Ab-3.
4 Temperature
The temperature of the fluid in the hose and the ambient temperature around the hose in combination with the
medium of both the conveyed fluid and the environment, need to be carefully considered in the hose selection
process. The temperatures in the catalogue refer to the temperatures of the fluid in the hose.
High Temperature
In general the combination of high temperatures and high pressures reduce the service life of the hose. More
regular inspection of the hose assemblies should be carried out to assure the continued safe functionality of the
hose assembly. If the outer cover is brittle or cracked, the hose assembly should be replaced.
To maximise hose service life choose Parker high temperature hoses with part numbers ending
with 6, eg 436 - SAE 100 R16 high temperature hose.
Low Temperatures
In general cold temperatures reduce the flexibility of rubber products. The minimum specified temperature
designates the minimum temperature that the hose may be subjected to before, during a cold-bending test, visible
cracks appear in the rubber hose cover.
For extremely low temperatures Parker LT products should be selected,

eg. 461LT – EN857-2SC Low Temperature hose

6 Hose Fittings
Hose ends, or hose fittings as commonly named, tend to be specified by the machine port that the hose is to be
attached to and are heavily influenced by the country of origin.
Despite many efforts being made to standardise and rationalise connection types, many connection systems still
exist due to national or international standards or even specific to a customer or a market segment.
In general there are five main fittings systems generally used for hydraulic connections today, whereby the overall
list is much longer.
European Thread Types:

German – (DIN)
British – (BSP)
French – (GAS & Metric)
North American – (SAE)
Japanese – (JIS)
In order to assure a long service life and leak free running of the system the fitting style and the sealing type of the
fitting should be considered in the design process.
Safety First !!
Hose / Hose Fitting Compatibility
Parker undertakes intensive testing of the hoses and fittings to assure that the respective Parker fittings series is
compatible with the designated hose, as shown in the catalogue.
Parker take no responsibility to assure that hose from another manufacturer is compatible with Parker hose
fittings, nor does Parker take responsibility for other manufacturers fittings compatibility with Parker hose.
Identifying Fitting Types

In general fittings can be identified by their visual appearance, their sealing surface/ sealing type or by their thread
type/form.
On page Ab-26, there is a comprehensive fitting identification guide that will help both identification of the thread
and the sealing mechanism.

Cutting and hose length training or advice !
Hose is cut to the desired length
according to specifications.
The correct hose cutting tool ensures a square, clean cut without damaging
the pressure reinforcement. Depending on the hose type, different kinds of
blades must be used: 1) smooth blade, 2) scolloped blade
All male threads are measured All DIN, BSP and ORFS fittings are

Technical Handbook
Crimping
Crimping is the safest, fastest and most commonly used method of making a hose
assembly. The Parker crimping systems ensure precise, leak-free and tear-proof
assembly of hose and fitting. Reaching the exact crimping diameter is possible with
Parkrimp crimping tools or freely adjustable crimping tools.
When crimping, it is essential that hose, fitting and crimping tool (dies) match
precisely (see Parker crimping tables on pages Ed-1 -Ed-10). Furthermore, the
insertion depth, a square cut hose, correct, burr-free and clean crimping are
important to ensure a correctly formed and leak-free connection of hose and fitting.
Using the ParKrimp hose crimpers or free adjustable crimpers, the fitting is
crimped onto the hose in one slow and smooth crimping procedure.
A depth stop with automatic function ensures safe positioning of the fitting.
This guarantees the correct crimping of hydraulic hose assemblies.
26, 46, 48, 70, 71, 73, 78, 79 series:

Push the hose all the way into the coupling.
Place the hose next to the fitting shell and mark the
insertion depth or the length of the fitting onto the
hose - (lubricate hose end if necessary) push hose
into the fitting until the mark on the hose is even with
the end of the shell.
A
Angle setting
The displacement angle of a hose assembly is indicated
only when two elbow fittings are assembled in a β
displaced way.
The angle always has to be indicated clockwise looking
from the elbow fitting at the back to the one in the front.
Please also consider the natural bending of the hose.
Testing Static test pressure depending on the hose type and application is applied to
the finished hose assembly for a pre-defined period of time. The test procedure
can be documented using a test logging unit. The test pressure for Parker
hydraulic hose assemblies is 2 times the value of the dynamic operating
overpressure.
Proof Pressure Test – This test is typically carried on customer request
according to a method defined by the ISO 1402 standard. The test should be
made at normal ambient temperature with a proof test bench using water or
another suitable liquid. The hose assembly should be pressurised for between
30 to 60 seconds at twice the working pressure of the hose assembly. There
should be no leakage or pressure drop. A complete test report should be
provided together with the hose assembly to the customer.
Cleaning
The hydraulic systems have to reach a defined degree of cleanliness. For this
purpose we use cleaning devices which ensure fast and efficient cleaning
of hose assemblies. With the TH6-6 standard cleaning device, cleanliness
class 17/14 according to ISO 4406 can be achieved. For higher degrees of
cleanliness, the TH6-6 device needs to be equipped with a different filter
cartridge (see chart). This cleaning device first washes the hose assembly with
a detergent and an anticorrosive agent and then blows it out with pressurised
air. For permanent protection of the finished hose assembly against impurities
ISO 4406 NAS 1638 SAE 749 Cartridge we recommend using plastic caps.

8 Routing / Installation / Environmental Influences

wrong The routing of the hose assembly and the environ- right
ment in which the hose assembly operates directly
influence the service life of the hose assembly. The
following diagrams indicate the correct routing of
hose assemblies that will maximise its service life
and assure a safe working functionality.
When hose installation is straight, it must be assured

that there is enough slack in the hose to allow for
changes in length that occur when pressure is
applied. When pressurized, hose that is too short
may pull loose from its hose fittings or stress the
hose fitting connections, causing premature metallic
or seal failures.
The hose length must be determined so that the

hose assembly has enough slack to allow the system
components to move or vibrate without creating
tension in the hose.
However, care needs to be taken not to allow too

much slack and therefore introduce the risk of the
hose snagging on other equipment or rubbing on
other components.
Mechanical straining of the hoses needs to be

avoided, so the hose must not be bent below its
minimum bending radius or twisted during installation.
The minimum bending radii for each hose is stated in
the hose tables in the catalogue.
The plane of movement must also be considered

and the hose routing selected accordingly.
Hose routing also plays an important role on the

selection of the hose fittings, as the correct fittings
can avoid straining the hoses, unnecessary hose
length or multiple threaded joints.

Technical Handbook
wrong right
Correct clamping (holding/supporting) of the hose

should be exercised to securely route the hose or to
avoid the hose contacting surfaces that will cause
the hose damage.
It is however, vital that the hose be allowed to
keep its functionality as a “flexible-pipe” and not
be restricted from changing in length when under
pressure.
It should also be noted that hoses for high- and

low-pressure lines shall not be crossed or clamped
together, as the difference in changes in length
could wear the hose covers.
Hose should not be bent in more than one plane. If
hose follows a compound bend, it shall be coupled
into separate segments or clamped into segments
that each flex in only one plane.
Hoses should be kept away from hot parts as high

ambient temperatures shorten hose life.
Protective insulation may need to be used in
unusually high ambient temperature areas.
Whilst the importance of the functionality is primate

the aesthetics and practicality of the installation
should also be considered in the design.
It should be considered that maintenance might be
necessary at some stage in the future, so prohibitive
design routings should be avoided.

Technical Handbook
wrong right
Abrasive influences
In general care should be taken that the hose is not
exposed to direct surface contact that will cause
abrasive wearing of the outer cover (either hose
to object or hose to hose contact). If however, the
application is such that this cannot be avoided, either
a hose with a higher abrasion resistant hose cover or
a protective sleeve need to be used.
Parker (TC) or (ST)
covers offer 80 times or respectively 1000 times the
abrasion resistance of standard rubber covers.
Pollution of hydraulic circuits

Modern hydraulic equipment is becoming highly precise and as such more sensitive, so as a result the importance
of a clean working fluid in the system is growing. Because as many as 75% of hydraulic system failures are caused
by contamination of the fluid by solid particles, the initial cleanliness of hydraulic components, as the main source of
these contaminates, is vital.
With hose assemblies most of the pollution/contaminates enter the hose assembly during its production and mainly
during the cutting (or skiving) process.
The level of contamination is defined in three popular norms: ISO4406, ISO4405 or NAS 1638. Most common is
however, is the ISO 4406, which describes the number and size of solid particles in the hydraulic system by means
of a classification value e.g. 16/13.
In order to avoid system failures, all hose assemblies should be cleaned before use (cleaned and plugged before
shipping) with suitable cleaning equipment such as the Parker TH6-6 machine. This cleaning device first washes the
hose assembly with a detergent and an anticorrosive agent and then blows it out with pressurized air.

The chart below is provided as an aid in the determination of the correct hose
size.
Flow Q
Example: at 10 gallons per minute (gal/min), what is the proper hose size
l/min Gal/min * within the recommended velocity range for pressure lines?
Locate 10 gallons per minute in the left-hand column and 25 feet per second in
the right-hand column (the maximum recommended velocity range for pressure
400 lines). Lay a straight line across these two points. The inside diameter shown
80
in the centre column is above -6 so we have to use -8 (1/2").
300 For suction hose, follow the same procedure except use recommended velocity
60 range for intake lines in the right-hand column.

The Correct Method to Fit Female Swivel Ends

To ensure a leakproof seal between swivel female hose ends shown in this catalogue and the appropriate adaptors
it is necessary to follow the procedure below which is different from hydraulic tube assembly (This instruction is not
valid for ORFS fittings).
Metal-to-metal seal Screw the nut up hand tight and then with a spanner
for one further 1/4 turn only.
Soft seal by O-ring Screw the nut up hand tight and then with a spanner
for one further 1/4 turn only.
Ensure that in all cases the hose is correctly aligned before tightening the nut onto the corresponding adaptor.

Technical Handbook Chemical resistance table
Chemical Resistance Table

Warning ! This chemical compatibility guide must not be used in conjunction with any other compatibility guides from previous or future
catalogue editions, bulletins or publications. Incorrect use of these charts could result in death, personal injury or property damage.
Hose Selection by Medium and Hose Type

This hose compatibility chart is a ready reference of Parker hose compatibility with various fluid media. It is intended as a guide
to chemical compatibility with inner tube materials and assembly lubricants applied internally.
The outer cover of the hose is intended to protect the reinforcement layer(s) from mechanical influences (abrasion,
weathering etc), as such the cover compounds are not designed to exhibit the same chemical resistance as the tube
compounds. Hose Division Technical Department should be consulted about the compatibility of the cover should the
application involve the extended exposure or immersion in a liquid.
The specific recommendations are based upon field experience, the advice of various polymer or fluid suppliers, and specific
laboratory experiments. It must be stressed, however, that this information is offered only as a guide. Final hose selection
depends also upon pressure, fluid temperature, ambient temperature, and special requirements or variations, which may not be
known by Parker Hannifin. Legal and other regulations must be followed with particular care.
Where an external compatibility problem may occur, or for fluids not listed, we encourage you to first contact the fluid
manufacturer for a recommendation prior to contacting your Parker Hannifin Field Representative or the Technical Department,
Hose Products Division Europe (HPDE@Parker.com)
Use the Chart as Follows:
1. Locate medium to be carried using the Chemical Resistance Table on the following pages.
2. Select suitability of hose and fitting material from the table based on the letter rating in the table. See resistance rating key below for
explanation of compatibility ratings. See list of numerals below for an explanation when a numeral, or a numeral and a letter rating are
present in the table.
3. The Column headings on the Chemical Resistance Table, I, II, III, IV, V, refer to specific groups of hoses.
4. Locate hose part number under Column l, ll, III, IV, V. VI from the list below.
5. For fitting material availability refer to appropriate fitting section of catalogue.
6. Check hose specifications in this catalogue. Contact Hose Division Technical Department on any items not catalogued.
Resistance Rating Key
A = Preferred, good to excellent with little or no change in physical properties.
F = Fair, marginal or conditional with noticeable effects on physical properties.
X = Unsuitable, severe effects on physical properties.
~ = No rating, insufficient information.
Numerals
1. For air or gaseous applications above 250 PSI (1,7 MPa), the cover should be pin pricked.
2. Legal and insurance regulations must be considered. Contact HPDE Technical Department for more information.
3. Push-Lok hoses (801, 804, 821, 821FR, 831, 836, 837BM, 837PU, 830M, 838M) are not recommended for any type of fuel.
4. Use 285, 235 or 244 hoses. The compatibility of the systems refrigeration oil with these hoses needs to be evaluated on a case by case
basis. Contact HPDE Technical Department for more information. Do not use mineral oil or Alkyl Benzene refrigeration oils with 244 hose.
Chemical compatibility does not imply low permeation.
5. 65 °C (150 °F) maximum.
6. Satisfactory at some concentrations and temperatures, unsatisfactory at others.
7. For phosphate ester fluids use 304, 424, 774 or 804 hoses.

Caution: The fluid manufacturer’s recommended maximum operating temperature for any specific name-brand fluid should be closely observed
by the user. Specific name brand fluids can vary greatly between manufacturers even though they are considered to be from the same family
or-of fluids. Using fluids above the manufacturers maximum recommended temperature can cause the fluid to break down, creating by-
products that can be harmful to elastomers or other materials used in the system. When selecting a hose type, both the fluid manufacturer and
hose manufacturers maximum temperature limit must be taken into consideration, with the lower of the taking precedence.

Technical Handbook Determining
Sealing Mechanisms
Identifying Fitting Types

In general fittings can be identified by their visual appearance, their sealing surface/ sealing
type or by their thread type/form. Viewing the following pages the visual identification will be self
explanatory. The sealing mechanism and the method of thread identification however, needs
further explanation
Determining Sealing Mechanisms:

– Thread interface
– O-ring
– Matching angle or metal to metal joint
– Mated angle with O-ring
Thread Interface
The sealing is assured by the flattening of
the edges of the threads when the male is
screwed into the female fitting. Typically the
front of the male fittings are narrower than
the back of the fittings – often referred to as
tapered threads.
O-ring
The O-ring on the male is compressed against
the corresponding female and assures the
seal. This type of sealing mechanism should
be the preferred choice for high-pressure
applications.
��
Matching Angle or Metal to Metal Joint ��

The seal takes place where the two angled

Technical Handbook Determining
Thread Type
Determining Thread Type

In general the appearance of the threads of various fittings looks similar and hinders the easy identification
of the thread. To assure the correct identification, the threads must be measured and compared to the
tables listed in the following section. ��
��
��
Thread Gauge
Using a thread gauge, the number of
threads per inch can be determined.
Holding the gauge and coupling threads in
front of a lighted background helps to obtain
an accurate measurement.
Caliper Measure
A vernier caliper should be used to measure
the thread diameter of the largest point.
(Outside diameter (O.D.) of male threads ��
– Inside Diameter (I.D.) of female threads.) ��
��
��
��
��
��
��
��
��
��
��

The HPDE Thread Identification Kit can be used

to ease daily thread identification requirements.
It is ideal for workshop usage as a helpful pocket
sized tool. It contains thread gauges, a set of
calipers, thread profiles, and an instruction booklet.

O-ring Face Seal (ORFS)
��
ORFS fittings are becoming the most popular � ��
��
��
��
��
��
international fitting type used on global OEM ��
��
machines due to their high level of sealing and ��
� ��
��
their good vibration resistance. The fittings use ��
��
the O-ring compression mechanism to seal. ��
��
��
The female fittings have flat faces and straight
threaded UNF swivel nuts. The male fittings have ��
��
the O-ring in a groove in the flat face. ��
��
��
��
Seen as a major advantage, these fittings offer ��
��
the possibility to build the hose assemblies into ��
��
fixed distances/spaces, without having to move ��
��
��
��
��
back other system components due the flat ��
��
��
� ��
��
��
faces of the male and female fittings – the hose
assembly can be slotted in. �

Hose fitting’s pressure rating

This is a subject often neglected by both designers and

producers of hose assemblies alike. The pressure rating

of a hose assembly is determined by the pressure rating of

the component in the hose assembly with the

lowest working pressure.
