How tight should PTFE fittings be?
Assembly requirements depend on the hose construction and fitting series. Use the applicable manufacturer-approved instructions for hose preparation, component installation, lubrication where permitted, crimp dimensions or tightening requirements, and final inspection. A single tightening value or assembly gap should not be applied to every PTFE fitting design.
How is chemical compatibility confirmed?
Chemical compatibility should be checked for every wetted component, including the PTFE tube, fitting body, reinforcement, seals, and any plating or internal components. The media, concentration, temperature, pressure, cleaning process, and exposure time should be reviewed before approving the assembly.
Can PTFE fittings be reused?
PTFE hydraulic fittings can be reused, but be sure to replace the ferrule with a new one when using them again.
Can you cross-reference existing PTFE fitting part numbers?
Existing supplier part numbers, catalogs, drawings, samples, and product photos can be used as identification references. Final interchangeability should be confirmed by checking the PTFE hose series, hose dimensions, fitting structure, connection end, key dimensions, material, assembly method, and operating requirements.
How to install PTFE fittings?
Installation procedures differ between crimp and field-attachable fittings. Confirm the hose and fitting series, prepare the hose according to the applicable instructions, use the specified components and tooling, follow the approved assembly dimensions or tightening procedure, and inspect the completed assembly before use.
Can different fitting sizes and configurations be included in one order?
Yes. Buyers can submit a multi-SKU list covering different hose sizes, end connections, body configurations, materials, and quantities.
