Male x Swivel Female Hydraulic Adaptors

Hydraulic adaptors are used to connect hydraulic hoses and pipes to pumps, valves, hydraulic cylinders and other parts of the hydraulic system. Amongst our extensive range, you will find Male x Swivel Female connections of various sizes which conform to a range of system specifications.

Male x Swivel Female hydraulic adaptors are specialized fittings designed to connect a male-threaded component to a female-threaded component, where the female end can swivel. The swivel feature allows for flexibility during installation, reducing stress on the connection and making it easier to align hoses or components in tight spaces. These adaptors are commonly used in hydraulic systems to ensure a leak-free, secure connection while allowing for rotation without loosening the fittings.

Components of Adaptors

Main Body: The main body serves as the foundation of the adaptor. While standard adaptors come in fixed dimensions, they can also be customized to fit the specific components you need to connect. Whether you are linking a hose to a tube or connecting two tubes, the main body adjusts seamlessly to accommodate these components.

Threads: The spiral ridges on the adaptor's threads, once twisted into position, guarantee a secure lock for the adaptor. This prevents any wobbling or accidental detachment, even under pressure.

Sealing Surface: This adaptors features a safety guard that ensures no leaks occur by creating a secure seal when attached to another component. The sealing surface plays a crucial role in upholding a high-performance system that is free from leaks.

The Difference Between Hose Fittings and Adaptors?

When dealing with hydraulic systems, you will come across different types of fittings, with hose fittings and adaptors being among the most common. Despite appearing similar, they each have distinct functions.

Hose Fittings

In simple terms, hose couplings have a singular function: linking hoses together. These fittings are designed for connecting hoses to each other or to machines, serving the purpose of either extending hose length or facilitating hose-machine connections. Typically, they are tailored to specific hose sizes and types, making them less adaptable in general.

Adaptors

Adaptors, on the contrary, play a versatile role in the realm of connectors. They can link various components like fitting to fitting, hose to tube, or tube to tube. The design of adaptors allows for more versatility, making them invaluable in complex hydraulic systems.
