5.2-7 Tightening and Torque
Recommendations for Hydraulic
Couplings and Hoses
General Work Practices
1. All components must be free of damage or
contamination. O-rings cannot be reused
anytime the component has been installed
beyond nger tight. Clean or replace
components, as required.
2. Over tightening a coupling may result in
overstressing and/or cracking, and may lead to
leaking or failure.
3. When tightening hose couplings, ensure the
hose does not twist on the adapter. Twisting will
shorten hose life and scar the sealing surfaces
of swivel type couplings (JIC, 45°, etc.), which
can create leaks.
4. When tightening hose couplings, use a torque
wrench (with crow’s foot) on the hose end
hex swivel nut, and a standard box wrench on
the hose end stem hex to hold the hose from
twisting.

5. Lubricate all O-ring surfaces with suitable
hydraulic oil prior to installation in the ange
head and O-ring seal grooves. This will minimize
the possibility of damage to the O-ring when
installed.
6. Install any 45° and 90° hydraulic hose ends
rst, then align direction and tighten. Adjust
the swivel nut on the straight hose end before
tightening to create the desired ow.
