DELPHI FITTINGS
Part #: FS1804
ORFS Male x Code 62 Flange 90° Elbow
Product Overview
The Delphi Fittings Part FS1804 is a 90° elbow flange head adapter, specifically engineered for high-pressure hydraulic systems requiring a robust, angled connection. This fitting connects a SAE Code 62 (heavy-duty) flange port to a female SAE O-Ring Face Seal (ORFS) swivel fitting or prepared tube end. It features a Code 62 flange head with an O-ring groove on one end, and a male ORFS end with its characteristic flat face and O-ring groove on the other, with the two ends oriented at a 90-degree angle. This adapter is designed for use with a Code 62 split flange kit (two halves, high-strength bolts, and washers) or a captive flange, which clamps the flange head to the port face, compressing the O-ring for a superior, leak-proof seal. The ORFS connection offers excellent resistance to leakage in high-vibration and high-pressure environments. Manufactured from high-quality carbon steel and zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, this adapter conforms to SAE J518 (Code 62 flange) and SAE J1453 (ORFS) standards, ensuring maximum reliability in the most demanding hydraulic applications.
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) |
| Angle | 90 Degrees |
| Body Style | 90° Elbow Flange Head Adapter, typically forged for strength, with 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 90-degree, high-pressure, leak-proof connection from a SAE Code 62 flange port to a female ORFS swivel fitting or prepared tube end, facilitating a right-angle take-off. |
| 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 #FS1804 Series)
Delphi Fittings offers the ORFS Male x Code 62 Flange 90° Elbow in a variety of common ORFS and Code 62 flange sizes for high-pressure applications.
Examples include (Male ORFS x Code 62 Flange Size):
- FS1804-08-08: 1/2" (-08) ORFS Male x 1/2" (-08) Code 62 Flange
- FS1804-10-10: 5/8" (-10) ORFS Male x 5/8" (-10) Code 62 Flange
- FS1804-12-12: 3/4" (-12) ORFS Male x 3/4" (-12) Code 62 Flange
- FS1804-16-16: 1" (-16) ORFS Male x 1" (-16) 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 FS1804 ORFS Male x Code 62 Flange 90° Elbow is specifically designed for:
- Connecting hydraulic lines or components with female ORFS swivel ends to high-pressure SAE Code 62 flange ports on hydraulic pumps, motors, valves, and heavy-duty manifolds, where a 90-degree change in line direction is crucial.
- Integrating ORFS standard lines, known for their exceptional sealing in high-vibration conditions, into systems that utilize Code 62 flange connections for maximum pressure containment, particularly when an immediate right-angle turn is required.
- Use in severe-duty mobile equipment (e.g., large excavators, mining machinery), 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, with a 90-degree take-off from the high-pressure flange port.
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, orienting the elbow to the desired 90-degree angle. Place the split flange halves (or captive flange) behind the flange head. Insert high-strength 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.
