DELPHI FITTINGS
Part #: FS1800
SAE ORFS Male x Code 62 Flange Adapter
Product Overview
The Delphi Fittings Part FS1800 is a straight flange head adapter specifically engineered for high-pressure hydraulic applications. It is designed to connect a SAE Code 62 (heavy-duty) flange port to a female SAE O-Ring Face Seal (ORFS) swivel fitting or prepared tube end. This adapter features a Code 62 flange head with an O-ring groove on one end and a male ORFS end with its distinctive flat face and O-ring groove on the other. It is intended for use with a Code 62 split flange kit (two halves, high-strength bolts, and washers) or a captive flange to create a robust, leak-proof seal against the Code 62 port. The ORFS connection is renowned for its superior sealing capabilities, especially in systems prone to high vibration and pressure spikes. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel and zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, this adapter conforms to SAE J518 (for the Code 62 flange end) and SAE J1453 (for the ORFS end) standards, ensuring reliability in the most demanding hydraulic environments.
Key Features & Specifications
| Material | High-Grade Carbon Steel |
|---|---|
| End 1 Configuration | Male SAE O-Ring Face Seal (ORFS) (conforming to SAE J1453 / ISO 8434-3) |
| End 2 Configuration | SAE Code 62 Flange Head (Heavy Duty) (conforming to SAE J518 / ISO 6162-2) |
| Body Style | Straight Flange Head Adapter, typically with a hex or flats for orientation. |
| Sealing Mechanism | ORFS End: Utilizes an elastomeric O-ring (seated in its groove) which compresses against the flat face of the mating female ORFS swivel fitting. Flange End: Utilizes an elastomeric O-ring (seated in the groove on the flange head) which compresses against the flat face of the mating Code 62 port, secured by a split or captive flange kit. |
| Corrosion Protection | Standard Zinc Plating for enhanced durability and resistance to environmental corrosion. |
| Primary Function | To provide a straight, high-pressure, leak-proof connection from a SAE Code 62 flange port to a female ORFS swivel fitting or prepared tube end. |
| Working Pressure | Suitable for heavy-duty high-pressure hydraulic systems as defined by SAE Code 62 (typically up to 6000 PSI). |
| O-Ring Material (for both ends) | Typically Buna-N (Nitrile) 90 Durometer as standard. Viton® (FKM) or other materials available upon request for specific fluid or temperature compatibility. O-rings are supplied with the fitting. |
Commonly Available Sizes (Part #FS1800 Series)
Delphi Fittings offers the ORFS Male x Code 62 Flange Adapter in a variety of common ORFS and Code 62 flange sizes for high-pressure applications.
Examples include (Male ORFS x Code 62 Flange Size):
- FS1800-08-08: 1/2" (-08) ORFS Male x 1/2" (-08) Code 62 Flange
- FS1800-10-10: 5/8" (-10) ORFS Male x 5/8" (-10) Code 62 Flange
- FS1800-12-12: 3/4" (-12) ORFS Male x 3/4" (-12) Code 62 Flange
- FS1800-16-16: 1" (-16) ORFS Male x 1" (-16) Code 62 Flange
- FS1800-20-20: 1-1/4" (-20) ORFS Male x 1-1/4" (-20) Code 62 Flange
Note: Each flange head and ORFS male end includes an appropriate O-ring. This adapter requires a separate Code 62 split flange kit (e.g., Part 62SF-KIT) or captive flange and high-strength bolts for installation. For unlisted size combinations, specific material requirements (e.g., stainless steel options), or other custom needs, please contact our sales team.
Applications
The Part FS1800 ORFS Male x Code 62 Flange Adapter is specifically designed for:
- Connecting hydraulic hoses or tubes with female ORFS swivel ends to high-pressure SAE Code 62 flange ports on hydraulic pumps, motors, valves, cylinders, and heavy-duty manifolds.
- Integrating ORFS standard lines, known for their excellent seal in high vibration conditions, into systems that utilize Code 62 flange connections for maximum pressure handling and reliability.
- Use in severe-duty mobile equipment (e.g., large excavators, mining machinery, forestry equipment), industrial machinery (e.g., high-tonnage presses), and various hydraulic systems where robust, bolted flange connections are essential for safety and performance at extreme pressures.
- Applications demanding superior resistance to vibration, pressure spikes, and mechanical stress, where a straight transition between these two high-performance sealing types is needed.
Installation & Usage Guidelines
- Ensure the Code 62 flange head, its O-ring groove and O-ring, the mating port surface, the ORFS male end flat face and O-ring groove, and the mating female ORFS swivel face are all clean, undamaged, and free from contaminants.
- Verify O-rings are correct for the high-pressure application and properly lubricated. Install the O-rings onto the ORFS male end and the flange head.
- Position the flange head against the mating Code 62 port face. Place the split flange halves (or captive flange) behind the flange head. Insert bolts and tighten progressively and evenly in a diagonal pattern to the recommended torque.
- Connect the male ORFS end of the adapter to a mating female ORFS swivel fitting. Hand-tighten the swivel nut until faces meet, then tighten to the recommended torque using appropriate wrenches, backing up the adapter body.
- For stainless steel versions (if applicable), always use an appropriate anti-seize lubricant on the threads to prevent galling.
