The adapter is one of the important accessories often used in civil or industrial piping systems. The main task of these adapters is to connect pipes to machines in systems or quickly open and close quid, steam, and gas pipelines. In the content below, please join VHE to learn about the most common types of adapters for hydraulic pipes!
1. JIC Threaded Adapters
JIC Threaded Adapters's full name is the Joint Industry Council. JIC is the most common type of connector. It is very commonly used on hydraulic pipes. JIC is based on the SAE J514 standard. JIC threads have a 37⁰ taper angle and are parallel threads. The JIC female threaded end has a concave taper, and the JIC male threaded end has a convex taper.
2. BSP Threaded Adapters
BSP Threaded Adapters stands for British Standard Pipe, a threaded system according to British standards. The defining standard of the BSP thread system is the number of threads per inch. The angle between the two BSP thread tips is 55°. BSP has two main forms: BSPP and BSPT. BSPT & BSPP have a 60° taper angle with a concave male end and a convex female end. The BSP system is usually defined according to ISO 7 & ISO 228 and may use inch measurement units to calculate nominal pipe sizes, but actual dimensions are measured in millimeters.
3. ORFS Threaded Adapters
ORFS Threaded Adapters's full name is O Ring Face Seal Threads. This type of thread was researched and developed by SAE. This type of connector has many outstanding advantages in terms of sealing ability and ease of installation. The ORFS system consists of one male end and one female end. The male end has threads and O-rings to help seal. The ORFS female head has a flat cone and a groove to connect to the O-ring.
4. DIN Threaded Adapter
DIN thread system stands for Deutsches Institut für Normung, according to the German Institute of Technology Standards. DIN connectors are specified in the metric system with a 24⁰ taper angle. The DIN thread system is divided into 2 types: Light Series (Light series) also has the symbol DKL/ DKOL. Heavy Series also has the symbol DKS/DKOS. In mechanical engineering, we apply many DIN standard systems, including DIN 933, DIN 931, DIN 558, 601, 960, 961,...
VHE is currently a distributor of BSP Threaded Adapters, JIC Threaded Adapters, ORFS Threaded Adapters, and DIN2353 standard connectors. Because the company imports goods directly from large factories around the world such as Vitillo and Parker, it has extremely competitive prices.
Customers who need to purchase hydraulic connector products should immediately contact VHE to receive advice from technical experts on choosing the type of connector that best suits their hydraulic system.
