This straight nipple fitting connects hose assemblies to threaded ports in hydraulic and fluid systems, providing a direct inline link for secure flow transfer. Manufactured by SKF, it is intended for use where a robust metal connector with a male G-thread is required and is compatible with hoses having a 22mm internal bore.
Features and Benefits
- Chromium molybdenum construction offers high tensile strength and wear resistance
Male G thread enables standardised sealing with parallel-threaded ports
Designed for direct inline connection to hoses with 22mm ID for consistent flow
Compact straight profile minimises pressure loss along the flow path
Suitable for demanding service conditions where metal-to-metal fittings are needed
Applications
- Suitable for hydraulic lines in automation machinery
Ideal for connecting industrial hoses in mechanical workshops
Used with fluid transfer systems in electrical cabinet cooling
Can be used for repairs requiring a metal nipple connector in plant equipment
What material properties affect fatigue performance in repeated cycles?
The chromium molybdenum steel composition provides elevated yield strength and improved fatigue resistance compared with standard carbon steels, supporting repeated pressure cycling.
Which thread compatibility should be verified before installation?
Ensure the mating port uses a G-standard parallel thread and that the sealing method (e.g. washer or sealant) matches the installation practice for male G-thread connectors.
How does the straight form influence installation in confined routes?
The linear configuration allows straightforward alignment with hose runs, reducing bend stress on the hose and simplifying routing in tight assemblies.
What should be considered regarding hose connection integrity?
Confirm the hose internal diameter is 22mm to ensure proper seating and clamping, and select an appropriate hose clamp or crimping method compatible with metal nipple connections.
Selection guidance
- Review the manufacturer specifications for compatibility with your equipment.
- Confirm the required dimensions and fitting arrangement before ordering.
- Check the intended operating conditions against the product documentation.
