Steel, Teflon, Copper and Stainless Pipe Fitting

Pipe fittings

Pipe fittings are  process of repairing or installing pipes and tunings that transfers gases, solid materials and liquids in pipe line, home, valve and during Oil drilling. It requires the maintenance of pipes, joining and manufacturing processes to withstand a certain transfer pressure .

Pipe and hose fitting are closely related . Hose and pipe are manufactured by weatherhead hydraulic hose company or other related company. They are both used for the transfer of hydraulic ,Oil, Air pressure etc. And also fitted in a similar way. In the case of hose fitting or crimping process, a hydraulic crimp or reusable fitting machine is used to permanently hold the hose to its fittings like the chicago coupling or crowfoot fittings. While the pipe can be fitted by tapered threading, flaring, compression or by soldering. The only major different between a hose and a pipe fitting is that hoses are flexible.

Types of pipes:

1). Steel pipes:

they are iron pipes for the transfer of Water,Oil, Natural Gas and Propane fuel. Steel pipes can be threaded end connection or weld-on connection. They are used with both pipe and hose fittings like weco hammer union fittings, cam and groove fitting type , flanges and elbow fittings etc. Steel pipes are also fitted with double bolt clamp or pipe clamp.

2). Aluminum pipe:

its one of the most cheapest pipe fittings. Aluminum pipes resist corrosion and sparks and can also be fitted by soldering, compression or by flare.

3). Plastic pipes:

they are used in building for the supply of water ,chemicals and other waste products. They are Teflon tapered end connection and a cheaper than the
aluminum pipes

4). Copper pipes:

they are soft and rigid pipe tubing made up of copper for the transfer of hot and cold liquid content. Copper pipes are joined using a flare connection and solder. They are more resistance to corrosion than the steel pipe.

5). Glass pipe:

its a pipe fitting for the supply of corrosive liquid chemicals, pharmaceutical products and laboratory wastes. Pipes cannot be crimped like hydraulic hose or other hoses.

hydraulic machines

 hydraulic hose crimping machines

Hydraulic equipments are machinery and tools that uses fluid as power to do works. a common example are hydraulic crimping machine big vessels and machines


Fluids are transmitted to various parts of the machine like hydraulic motors, hydraulic gears and hydraulic cylinders which becomes pressurized depending on the resistance present. Control valves directly or automatically regulate the flow of the hydraulic fluid and are transferred through the use of hoses and pipes,

hydraulic machines are common due to the very large amount of power that can be transferred through small tubes and flexible hoses, and the high power density and wide array of hydraulic actuators that can make use of this power.Hydraulic machinery is operated by the use of hydraulics, where a liquid is the powering medium.

List of Content in hydraulic machines,

1). hydraulic pressure pumps
2). Hydraulic control valves
3) Hydraulic accumulators
4). hydraulic hoses
5). Hydraulic motors
6). Hydraulic cylinders. etc.

 hydraulic hose crimping machine size available includes; 

1). 1/4 inch dies to 2 inch hydraulic hose crimping machines,

2). 2 inch dies to 4 inch   hydraulic hose crimping machines

hydraulic hose nipples

  Hose nipples

Hydraulic hose nipples are hose adapters used on hydraulic hose, pipes and tubings to join or connect to each other.Hydraulic hose nipple is also used with a component like valves, pumps and guages during services usually during hydraulics and fluid transfer.The use of hydraulic hose nipple helps for an easy connection because fittings can be reduced to the lowest form and size easily without too much connections.

Different types of hydraulic hose nipple.

a). JIC male flare threading 37 degree:

the male JIC flare is used to connect a female JIC flare swivel 37 degree.

b). Male pipe NPT threading:

is and adapter to connect to a female Pipe swivel NPT threading.

c). Male O"Ring Boss thread:

is a type of nipple and adapter that has an o" ring seal to it. It could be an adjustable type or non adjustable.

d). JIC Female flare threading 37 degree:

it could be a swivel female or non swivel to adapting to a male pipe nipple JIC 37 degree.

e). NPT Female pipe threading:

these female nipple end is used with a male NPT threading.

f). Female O" Ring Boss thread.

The female thread is used with the Male O" Ring adapter .Hydraulic hose Nipple and Adapters has the above components at different ends and parts.
For example:
A hydraulic hose nipple can consist of 1/4" male JIC to 1/2" male NPT threading as shown in the diagram above.

Hoses

 Hydraulic hose

 

 

 

 

A hose is a flexible material made up of different chemical properties to form a cover,a tube and reinforcements.Hoses are flexible rubber materials or pipe which consists of a cover, a tube and reinforcements inorder to tranfer solid, liquid or gas particle from one area to another

Hoses are manufactured by some companies like Gates, Weatherhead , Aeroquip , Parker , Power hydraulics , Eaton, Enerpac hydraulics and multiples of them in Usa, Canada, United kingdom, China, Japan, Korea, Scotland, Turkey, India e.t.c.

 

Types of hoses

1).Water suction and discharge hoses:

they are hoses formed to transfer and receive water products. Water service hoses are made up of a tube , a cover and the reinforcement. Both the tube and the cover can be made of EPDM rubber material that has the ability to resist weathering and moisture. The reinforcements are made up of textile braid and a helix wire.

2). fuel and oil hoses suction and discharge hoses:

are hoses made up of a tough Neoprene Rubber material. They are use for discharging and receiving of Fuel, Oil, Diesel etc. They resist oil, weathering and abrasion.

3).Hydraulic hoses :

hydraulic hoses are high pressure hoses that are manufactured to transfer hydraulic fluids. And under the normal working pressure.
hydraulic hoses are grouped into two main categories

a)Medium pressure hydraulic hoses: they are hoses used to transfer hydraulic fluid under 500 -1000 psi working pressure.
They include, 100R1AT textile braided medium pressure R5 hose and R9 hose. And a rough body 100R1AT Medium pressure hoses.

b). High pressure hydraulic hoses: high pressure hoses consists of 100R2AT hydraulic hose., 100R12 Hydraulic hose, 100R13 hydraulic hoses e.t.c.

4): chemical and acid hoses:

Used in the suction and discharge of chemical products and acid. The cover is made up of Neoprene rubber material while the tube is made of a tough and flexible Teflon materials inside.

5).Dredging/material handling hoses:

they are very tough material hoses used for sand dredging. They are made up of natural gum rubber as both the tube and cover.

hydraulic hose 100R2AT

  hose 100R2AT

Hydraulic hoses 100R2AT is a high pressure hose that is made up of multiple wire reinforcement.
Hydraulic hose 100R2AT varies in pressure, hydraulic pressure ranges from 1000 psi to 5,000 psi working pressure depending on the size.

Hydraulic hoses available includes: 

-1/4"Hydraulic hose 100R2AT has a pressure rating of 5,000 psi,

-3/8 "Hydraulic hose 100R2AT has a pressure rating of 4000 psi,
 -1/2 "Hydraulic hose 100R2AT has a pressure rating of 3,500 psi,
- 3/4 "Hydraulic hose 100R2AT has a pressure rating of 2500 psi,

From the above explanation, you will see that the higher the size of the hose, the lower the pressure of the hydraulic hose. And the lower the size of the hydraulic hose the higher the pressure of the same hydraulic hose.
