One Piece Crimp Coupling: Caterpillar Flange 45 Degree. Size Range 3/4" to 1-1/4"
End 1 = Hose. End 2 = Caterpillar Flange.
Continental fittings are constructed from a single piece of steel without brazed or welded joints to provide ultimate protection against leaks and potential leak paths. With full-length crimps and a low-profile design that will last longer, the interlocking Bite-to-Wire technology delivers maximum coupling retention for safer assembly and reliability under the toughest pressure — no internal or external skive required.
SG Couplings suit the following Continental hoses:
SR12 SAE 100R12 EN 856 R12 | SAE 100R15 EN 857 4SP | SR13 SAE 100R13 EN 856 R13 | XCP3S SAE 100R12 | SR15 SAE 100R15 | XCP4S SAE 100R12 | XCP5S SAE 100R13 | XCP6S SAE 100R15.
Flange
Identification: The female port is an unthreaded hole surrounded with 4 bolt holes in a rectangular pattern. The male consists of a flanged head grooved for an O-ring and a flange with holes to match the port.
Seal: The seal takes place on the O-ring, which is compressed between the flanged head and the flat surface surrounding the port. The threaded bolts hold the connection mechanically.
Application: Commonly used in fluid power systems, worldwide and usually in connection on pumps and motors. The fitting is available in two pressure ratings. Code 61, Form R, PN 35/350 bar, Type I is referred to as the “standard” series and can withstand an operating pressure of 3,000–5,000 psi depending on size. Code 62, Form S, PN 415 bar Type II is the heavy-duty, 6,000 psi series. While the design is the same, bolt hole spacing and flanged head diameters are larger for the higher pressure Code 62 fitting.
Comments: SAE J518, DIN 20066, ISO/DIS 6162 and JIS B 8363 are interchangeable except for the bolt sizes. The -10 is not available as an SAE standard size. Caterpillar® flanges, which have the same flange OD as SAE Code 62, have a thicker flange head. This is the “C” dimension in the table.
How to Measure:
1. Measure port hole diameter [nominal flange size (in.)] using calipers.
2. Measure the longest bolt hole spacing from center to center, which is Dimension “B.”
3. Or see the flange OD for further identification.
