Reduce Connection Size Without Rebuilding the Line
The FS2406 ORFS Swivel to ORFS Reducer is designed for hydraulic assemblies that require a transition between different ORFS connection sizes.
Instead of replacing or redesigning an entire hydraulic line to accommodate a different tube size, the reducer provides a practical connection between the required sizes while maintaining the ORFS fitting system.
Swivel Design for Easier Hydraulic Assembly
The swivel configuration provides flexibility during installation and connection alignment. This can be particularly useful when hydraulic lines or components are difficult to position or when easier assembly access is needed.
The swivel design helps make the FS2406 a practical choice for complex hydraulic routing and equipment where connection positioning matters.
ORFS Face-Seal Connection
FS2406 belongs to the ORFS (O-Ring Face Seal) fitting family. ORFS connections use an elastomeric O-ring at the fitting face to provide the primary sealing interface.
When correctly matched and installed with compatible ORFS components, the design is well suited to hydraulic systems exposed to pressure, vibration, and mechanical movement.
Steel Construction for Demanding Service
FS2406 ORFS Swivel to ORFS Reducers are listed with steel construction, making them suitable for demanding hydraulic equipment and fluid-power applications.
They are intended for applications where fittings may experience:
- High hydraulic pressure
- Continuous mechanical shock
- Vibration
- Dynamic equipment movement
- Heavy-duty operating conditions
