Nomenclature

Without dashes (-) and

empty spaces, except for

dashes in size code

Used for all fittings with

metric hex or forging flats,

and sleeves,and braze
connections for metric
tubing

Except pipe fittings

HFAN/josito

43

 Letter M is placed in front of the

fitting type code to indicate metric hex

or forging wrench pads

For sleeves and braze or weld

connectors for metric tubing, the size

code is placed after the material
symbol

Metric threads are designated by

thread size without pitch, because

only the following size/pitch
combinations (Table no. 2) are used
in hydraulic port connections.

order of call-out hierarchy is :
X,U,I,L,T4,P4,K4
With different type port ends (in
adaptors) the order callout is Pipe,
