Description
ORB (O-Ring Boss) fittings are used in hydraulic systems to create a secure leak-proof seal and are especially useful in high-pressure applications. They are made up of a male and female part each with specific threading and sealing surfaces. The male part has a groove for an O-ring while the female part has a machined surface with a chamfer. When the two parts are mated the O-ring compresses into the chamfer to create a tight seal.
- ORB fittings are commonly used in the following applications:Heavy machinery: used in the hydraulic systems of heavy machinery like excavators loaders and bulldozers.Industrial equipment: used in the hydraulic systems of industrial machinery like presses injection molding machines and conveyors.Automotive systems: used in the hydraulic systems of high-performance vehicles and heavy-duty trucks for brakes power steering and suspension.
