Seal-Lok
The Seal-Lok
fitting is an O-ring face seal type fitting that consists of a nut, a fitting
body, an O-ring and a sleeve.
A flat face sleeve is flanged or brazed to the tube and when the fitting is
assembled, it compresses an O-ring in a precision machined groove in the fitting
body to form a leak tight seal. Seal-Lok fittings are suitable for any range of
tube wall thick-ness and are also readily adaptable to pipe, metric tubing and
hose. The Seal-Lok connection can be made with either metric or inch tubing by
choosing the appropriate sleeve. There are over thirty different body shapes and straights to choose from for
specific applications. The body face has a groove which contains a high
durometer O-ring that is held captive during installation. In addition, the
Seal-Lok fitting body shapes are forged for added strength and longer service
life. Straight products are made from cold drawn barstock. Seal-Lok fittings are manufactured with a captive O-ring groove
(CORG) design for prevention of O-ring fall-out prior to final assembly.
The Triple-Lok tube
fitting consists of three pieces: the body, the nut and the sleeve. The tube end
is flared at a mating 37° angle and sandwiched between the fitting nose (seat)
and the sleeve creating an effective seal between the fitting nose and tube
flare or hose. Parker’s Triple-Lok fittings are
manufactured in steel, 316 stainless steel and brass for optimum fluid
compatibility and corrosion resistance. Furthermore, available sizes range from
1/8" tube O.D. to 2" tube O.D. in several configurations. (Standard ports include:
SAE, straight thread ISO-6149, NPT, BSPT, BSPP and DIN.) The Triple-Lok tube fitting is also
readily available for metric tubing and hose adapter applications. Simply by
changing the industry standard sleeve, the same Triple-Lok body can be adapted
to metric tubing in sizes ranging from 6 mm tube O.D. to 38 mm tube O.D.
Likewise, by using only the body without the nut and sleeve, the Triple-Lok
fitting is used as an industry standard hose adapter.
Ferulok Fittings
The Ferulok fitting design and performance capabilities far exceed the strict requirements of SAE and military standards. The Ferulok fitting is a flareless fitting that consists of a body, a one-piece precision machined ferrule, and a nut. On assembly, the ferrule "bites" into the outer surface of the tube with sufficient strength to hold the tube against pressure, without significant distortion of the inside tube diameter. The ferrule also forms a pressure seal against the fitting body. Ferulok fittings allow the fitting assembler to visually inspect the bite quality, thus significantly minimizing the risk of improper assembly and related service problems. Ferulok fittings are especially suitable for use with tube wall thicknesses ranging from medium to extra heavy.
The Intru-Lok fitting is a flareless fitting that
consists of a body, a one-piece precision machined ferrule, and a nut. On
assembly, the ferrule "bites" into the outer surface of the tube with
sufficient strength to hold the tube against pressure. The ferrule also forms a
pressure seal against the fitting body. Intru-Lok fittings allow the fitting
assembler to visually inspect the bite quality, thus significantly minimizing
the risk of improper assembly and related service problems. Intru-Lok fittings
are routinely used in markets, such as: Machine tools, chemical, oil refineries,
paper making, thermoplastics processing, air and lube lines, pilot lines, panel
boards, etc.
There are many types of threads used throughout the world. This Section contains adapters with just a few of those many thread types including NPT, NPTF, NPSM, BSPT, BSPP, SAE UN/UNF, and Metric. All the threads in this section conform to industry specifications.
JIS
Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) fittings were introduced by Parker in North America in the early 1990s to address market requirements for OEM and replacement JIS fittings. The JIS fittings are designed with 30° male flare and 30° female seats and each incorporate BSP (British Standard Pipe) threads. These fittings are typically utilized as hose adapters on equipment designed and/or manufactured in Japan and Korea
EO Fittings
EO fittings are the most widely used bite
type fittings in the world. The EO fitting is a flareless metric fitting that
consists of a body, progressive ring (ferrule) and nut. On assembly, two cutting
edges of the ferrule "bite" into the outer surface of the tube
ensuring the necessary holding power for high operating pressures. Available in
three series, the EO tube fittings and accessories are manufactured in
accordance with DIN 2353 for fluid applications. Three series of EO tube
fittings (LL, L and S) and accessories are manufactured in accordance with DIN
2353 on the basis of decades of experience. The three components of EO fittings
are designed and manufactured to produce a strong, reliable, leak-free joint
upon proper assembly.
EO-2
FittingsThe heart of the EO-2 fitting is the new
EO-2 functional nut with which previously metalically sealed tube connections
can now be soft sealed. Natu
rally, all fittings in the EO-2 series are fully
compatible with our Ermeto Original range of products and can be combined with
these. For more demanding applications, in particular for new designs, we
recommend the use of EO-2 fittings. EO-2, the latest development from Parker-Ermeto,
is a fitting system with a soft seal on the tube side and a 24° cone according
to ISO 8434-1/DIN 2353. The soft sealing and retaining rings are combined in a
pair and are inserted into the internal thread of the nut in such a manner that
they cannot fall out, so that these three parts from one functional element.
This functional nut simplifies handling of the fitting and helps to minimize
storage and procurement costs.
Tube, Pipe and Hose ClampsParker offers a full line of
clamps for inch and metric tube (1/4" through 2" and 6mm
through 50mm), inch pipe (1/2" through 1-1/2") and 100R1 hose
sizes 1/4" through 1-1/2". Proper clamping of tube, pipe and
hose can eliminate problems caused by shocks and vibration in most
hydraulic systems.
