Bulkhead Locknut Assembly
A bulkhead fitting allows one to connect tube or hose through a
panel.This panel, often referred to as bulkhead, may be a struc-
tural element of the equipment, or an additional plate which is
joined to the equipment, to facilitate convenient routing of hose
and tube. Bulkhead fittings are also used as a transition point
in a hydraulic system, such as connection of tube lines to hose
lines or to a quick disconnect coupling.
The following steps are recommended for the proper assembly
of the locknut for Triple-Lok, Ferulok and Seal-Lok bulkhead
fittings.
1.
Drill a pilot hole to dimension W + 0.015” (where W is
shown in Tables S26 and S27).
2.
Insert the bulkhead end of the fitting (without the locknut
assembled) through the bulkhead opening and attach the
locknut to the bulkhead end.
3.
Finger tighten the locknut and wrench tighten further to
the recommended torque shown in Table S28 for Seal-Lok
fittings or
for Triple-Lok and Ferulok fittings.

Recommended clearance hole is W + 0.015”

Pipe Swivel Assembly (NPSM)
Unlike traditional pipe thread, these connections seal on the
nose of the swivel end. The nose has a 60° inclusive angle
that mates against a chamfer of the same angle on the male
pipe thread end (also known as a 30° chamfer).
