A metric hose adapter is a type of fitting that is used to connect hoses with different thread types. It is designed to convert a metric threaded fitting to another thread type, typically a BSP (British Standard Pipe) thread or an NPT (National Pipe Thread) thread. This allows for a wider range of connections between hoses and fittings, making it easier to customize and configure hydraulic systems, pneumatic systems, and other types of fluid transfer systems.
The main advantage of a metric hose adapter is its ability to connect hoses with different thread types, which is particularly useful in situations where multiple hoses and fittings need to be connected. Metric thread types are commonly used in European and Asian markets, while BSP and NPT threads are more common in North America. By using a metric hose adapter, it is possible to create a seamless connection between hoses and fittings, regardless of the thread type. Easy to use and assemble
Hermetic sealing
Unthreadable
Insensitivity to vibrations and pressure peaks
High safety in extreme operating conditions. With the series of ISO 2353 8434-1/DIN adapters a mechanical joint is realized with the aid of a cutting ring.
It is possible to quickly realize pipings that can be easily dismantled avoiding welding and threading and flaring operations simplifying the realization of complex hydraulic systems.
During the tightening the ring deforms along the bore of the 24° cone of the fitting and enters into the steel pipe, producing two incisions and ensuring the tightness and unthreading of the ring from the tube.
