Non-restricting swivel elbow, M 18x1.5, tube 12 S, stainless steel 1.4571

The swivel elbow coupling takes a precision tube through a cutting ring to a metric male stud thread and still swivels freely in its plane. The article is made of stainless steel 1.4571. The data give male stud thread M 18x1.5 and tube connection 12 S (M20x1.5). The version is listed with heavy series.

Benefits

• The elbow swivels freely until the union nut is tightened, so tube 12 S (M20x1,5) can be laid without stress.
• Non-restricting bore, the cross section of 12 S (M20x1,5) is kept right through the swivel bend.
• Male stud thread M 18x1.5 for a direct connection to a pump, valve or cylinder.
• Working pressure up to 400 bar in the heavy series.
• Temperature range -60 to +400 °C for the body in stainless steel 1.4571.

Applications

In machine building the non-restricting version in stainless steel 1.4571 replaces the bend that would otherwise be needed and holds 400 bar.

Standards and conformity

The coupling belongs to the cutting ring system for precision tubes. The tube is cut off square, deburred inside and out and cleaned, and no tube cutter is used.
