Connection Body: Temperature Range -40°C to 200°C

Component Specifications

Definition

A Connection Body is the main structural element of fluid port connectors, designed to house and secure connection interfaces while maintaining pressure integrity and preventing leaks in hydraulic, pneumatic, or process fluid systems. It serves as the foundation for mounting various connector types and ensures proper alignment between mating components.

Working Principle

The Connection Body functions by providing a rigid housing that maintains dimensional stability under pressure and mechanical loads. It creates a sealed environment through precision-machined surfaces and proper gasket/oring compression, allowing fluid to pass through while preventing external contamination and internal leakage.

Materials

Typically manufactured from carbon steel (AISI 1018/1020), stainless steel (304/316), brass (C36000), aluminum (6061-T6), or engineered plastics (PEEK, PTFE) depending on application requirements for corrosion resistance, pressure rating, and fluid compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Connection Body and a fitting?

A Connection Body is the structural housing that contains the connection interface, while a fitting is the complete assembly including seals and connection mechanism. The body provides the foundation for the fitting system.

How do I select the right Connection Body material?

Material selection depends on fluid compatibility, pressure requirements, temperature range, and corrosion resistance needs. Stainless steel is preferred for corrosive environments, while carbon steel offers high strength for hydraulic applications.
