Precision-machined hexagon connector featuring triple-seal structure (metal-to-metal seal + double O-rings) for leak-free performance in high-vibration environments. The 24mm wrench flats enable tool-assisted installation while maintaining compact dimensions. Nickel plating provides corrosion resistance in humid conditions.
- Robotic arm pneumatic circuits requiring vibration resistance
- CNC machine tool air supply connections
- Food processing equipment (EPDM seals for washdown areas)
- Railway braking systems (with anti-loosening design)
- Semiconductor manufacturing gas lines
Installation protocol:
Apply thread sealant to male threads (PTFE tape not recommended).
Use calibrated torque wrench for assembly - under-tightening causes leaks,
over-tightening may deform O-ring grooves. Perform pressure test at 1.1×
working pressure after installation.
