Frequently Asked Questions
How to install these hose fittings?
- Cut the hose to the appropriate length.
- Lubricate the inside of the hose and the fitting threads with hydraulic oil.
- Thread the fitting onto the hose until it is hand-tight.
- Use a wrench to tighten the fitting to the recommended torque specification.
What is the difference between a straight thread and a tapered thread on Eaton female swivel hose fittings?
A straight thread has a constant diameter and requires an O-ring or a sealing washer to create a seal between the fitting and the component. A tapered thread, on the other hand, has a decreasing diameter and creates a seal by wedging the fitting into the component.
