Hydraulic tube connectors DIN 2353

  • Hydraulic tube connectors

Material

DIN 2353 pipe fittings are supplied in two material versions::

  • carbon steel (zinc-plated or phosphate-coated) standard seal: NBR rubber,
  • stainless steel (AISI 316) standard seal: Viton

Working temperature

Allowable working temp. depends on the material of a connector and seal:

  • carbon steel:
from -40°C up to +120°C
  • carbon steel + NBR:
from -35°C up to +100°C
  • stainless steel:
from -35°C up to +100°C
  • stainless steel + Viton:
from -20°C up to +200°C

Working Pressure

The max. working pressure (nominal pressure) of DIN 2353 pipe fittings differs according to the type (light series, heavy series), size (pipe outside diameter), material and manufacturer. In the table below, data from different producers showing different types of fittings, made of carbon and stainless steel, is collected. It facilitates preliminary selection. If the required working pressure exceeds the value in the table, please contact TUBES INTERNATIONAL® Technical Department..

Nominal pressure (max working pressure) given by manufacturers is calculated within static working conditions, the safety factor of 4 for the cutting ring connection. For fittings with metal to metal seal and BANJO fittings, the safety factor varies from 1.5 to 2.5. When choosing a fitting, dynamic pressure load and vibrations in the installation should be also considered.
For temperatures above +100°C, the max. working pressure may require reduction (contact TUBES INTERNATIONAL® Technical Department).

Medium:

Pipe fittings according to DIN 2353 can be used to transfer a wide range of fluids and gases. However, the compatibility of the medium with fitting material and seal type must be always checked. For all applications different from standard hydraulic oils, please contact TUBES INTERNATIONAL® Technical Department.

Pipes used in installations

Pipes used for the construction of installations:

  • seamless steel precision pipes, protected against corrosion (phosphate-coated, zinc-plated), annealed,
  • stainless steel precision pipes, cold-drawn, free of annealing scale, heat treated (annealed).

Pipe dimensions (outside diameter, wall thickness) should be chosen according to the required flow rate and working pressure in an installation.

A complete connection of a pipe with a hydraulic installation requires: a fitting (1), a cutting ring (2), a nut (3) and a hydraulic precision pipe (4). During assembly, sharp edges of the ring (5 and 6) bite into the pipe according to the 24° cone (7) and creating a “shoulder” (9). The pipe, cut straight at 90° angle, must be pushed firmly against the bottom of the seat (10). Otherwise, the cutting ring does not bite into the pipe deep enough to create a tight connection.

The fittings manufactured according to DIN 2353, depending on their usage and pressure, can be divided into the
following categories:

  • LL (extra light series) – used in small hydraulic and cooling devices, for plastic hoses, compressed air, propane,
    etc.
  • L (light series) – used for standard applications within the working pressure of that range.
  • S (heavy series) – used for higher pressure, hydraulic high pressure applications such as: hammering, shipbuilding, mining, chemical industry, heavy equipment.
VOSS DIN 2353 threaded connection range includes cutting ring connections, soft seal connections, BV10 connections, specialist assembly tools and accessories. As standard, all products are protected against corrosion with premium zinc-nickel coating VOSS Coat (CrVI chromium-free coating). Salt spray tests conducted according to DIN EN ISO 9227 proved that the basic material withstands over 1000 hours in typical working conditions with no signs of corrosion.
