Two Piece Hydraulic Hose Fittings with Metric "Light" (L) Female Swivel Nuts for one and two wire SAE 100R1 and 100R2 hydraulic hose for pressures to 4,000 psi.
Metric Light or (L) type hydraulic fittings are widely used in various types of machines, especially machines manufactured in Europe, Asia, as well as some countries or regions that use the metric system.
Identifying features and characteristics of Light (L) Metric Female Hydraulic Hose Fittings
- Smaller Nut and thread Diameters: as these fittings are typically used for lower pressure applications.
- Thinner tube wall thickness: Suitable for less demanding hydraulic systems.
- Common applications: Smaller machinery, agricultural equipment, and low-pressure hydraulic systems.
Important Points to Remember:
Interchangeability:
Light (L) and Heavy (S) metric fittings are not interchangeable.
Using the wrong type can lead to leaks and potential system failure.
Pressure Rating: Light metric fittings are generally rated for lower Hydraulic pressures less than less than or equal to 3,000 psi compared to Heavy metric fittings.
Tube Size: The tube size used with Light metric fittings is similar or larger in diameter than Heavy metric and has a thinner wall thickness than the tube used with Heavy metric fittings.
Application: The choice between light (L) and heavy (S) metric fittings depends on the specific application and the required pressure and flow rate.
