Description

ORFS 1.7/16" plug / cap female thread

The ORFS 1.7/16" plug / cap with a female thread is a hydraulic component designed for closing the ends of hydraulic hoses equipped with a compatible CAT (AORFS) male thread. The product consists of a nut with a female thread and a special cone placed inside the nut. This complete construction allows for the capping of a correctly matched hydraulic hose end.

The cap is made of galvanized free-cutting steel. It features an ORFS female thread in size 1.7/16", and the dimension given for caliper measurement inside the nut is 30.4–34.4 mm. The plug is used for closing the appropriate CAT (AORFS) ends used on hydraulic hoses during the assembly, repair, and maintenance of the installation.

Technical parameters of the ORFS 1.7/16" plug

  • Product type: hydraulic plug, ORFS cap.
  • Thread size: 1.7/16".
  • Thread type: female ORFS.
  • Thread measurement with a caliper inside the nut: 30.4–34.4 mm.
  • Construction: nut with female thread and a special cone placed inside the nut.
  • Material: free-cutting steel.
  • Surface protection: zinc plating.
  • Purpose: capping CAT (AORFS) male threads on hydraulic hoses.

Application of ORFS caps in power hydraulics

The ORFS 1.7/16" plug is designed for capping compatible hydraulic hose ends equipped with a CAT (AORFS) male thread. It can be used when disconnecting hoses from system components, replacing parts, during maintenance work, and for securing unused ends.

A properly selected cap helps to limit the ingress of contaminants into the disconnected hose and prevents residual oil from leaking out during work on a depressurized hydraulic system. Before use, please verify the compatibility of the thread size and connection design.

ORFS 1.7/16" female thread – identification

The cap is equipped with an ORFS female thread in size 1.7/16". An additional identification parameter is the measurement range provided for the thread inside the nut, which is 30.4–34.4 mm when measured with a caliper.

Caliper measurement can be helpful when identifying the size of the hose end; however, the result itself is not sufficient confirmation of compatibility. The thread type and the design of the mating components must also be verified.

ORFS cap construction – nut and special cone

The plug consists of a nut equipped with a female thread and a special cone located inside the nut. These elements form a complete cap designed for closing appropriate hydraulic ends with a male thread.

When selecting, both thread compatibility and the fit of the internal conical element to the hose end should be considered. Correct selection is crucial for the effective closure of the connection.

Galvanized free-cutting steel

The ORFS 1.7/16" plug is made of galvanized free-cutting steel. Steel is the structural material of the product, and the zinc coating protects its surface against corrosion.

When selecting a cap, the requirements of the specific hydraulic installation must be taken into account, including operating conditions and the material compatibility of the mating elements.

Capping CAT (AORFS) ends on hydraulic hoses

The ORFS 1.7/16" female thread plug is used for closing compatible CAT (AORFS) ends equipped with a male thread. It can be used during service work and for securing hydraulic hose ends that require capping.

This variant should be distinguished from caps with a male thread, which are intended for closing compatible ends with a female thread. Proper selection depends on the design of the hose end.

Selecting the ORFS 1.7/16" plug for a hydraulic hose

Before purchasing, please check the type of hose end and the size of the male thread. This variant has an ORFS 1.7/16" female thread and is intended for appropriately matched CAT (AORFS) fittings.

During identification, measuring the thread inside the nut may be helpful. For this product, a range of 30.4–34.4 mm is specified. The compatibility of the special cone with the design of the mating hydraulic end should also be checked.

Installation and inspection of the ORFS 1.7/16" cap

Before starting installation, turn off the device and safely depressurize the hydraulic system. Then, clean the hose end and check the condition of the thread, nut, and internal conical element.

The cap should be installed on a compatible CAT (AORFS) end, following the requirements of the connection system being used. After installation, verify the correctness of the fastening. If the plug is to be used while the installation is under pressure, it is necessary to confirm the allowable parameters of the complete connection.
