7.1.4 Flare-Type Hydraulic Fittings
Figure 7.10: Hydraulic Fitting
1. Check flare (A) and flare seat (B) for defects that might
cause leakage.
2. Align tube (C) with fitting (D) and thread nut (E) onto
fitting without lubrication until contact has been made
between flared surfaces.
3. Torque fitting nut (E) to specified number of flats from
finger tight (FFFT) or to a given torque value in
Table 7.10, page 284.
4. Use two wrenches to prevent fitting (D) from rotating.
Place one wrench on fitting body (D), and tighten
nut (E) with other wrench to torque shown.
5. Assess final condition of connection.
