Close Unused ORFS Hydraulic Ports
The FS2408 ORFS Plug provides a simple way to close an unused ORFS connection. Whether a port is being taken out of service, reserved for future use, or needs to remain closed during maintenance, the plug helps keep the hydraulic connection properly sealed.
This makes FS2408 a useful component for hydraulic manifolds, equipment ports, service points, and other ORFS applications.
SAE O-Ring Face Seal Design
FS2408 is designed for the SAE ORFS (O-Ring Face Seal) connection system. ORFS technology uses a flat sealing face with an elastomeric O-ring to create the primary seal between mating components.
When correctly sized and installed, the ORFS design provides a reliable sealing interface for demanding hydraulic applications.
Steel Construction for Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Service
The FS2408 series is listed with steel construction, providing a durable option for industrial and mobile hydraulic equipment.
Its robust construction makes it suitable for systems where fittings may be exposed to:
- High hydraulic pressure
- Continuous mechanical shock
- Vibration
- Pressure fluctuations
- Heavy-duty equipment operation
- Demanding fluid-power conditions
Available in Multiple ORFS Sizes
FS2408 is available in several commonly used ORFS sizes:
- FS2408-04
- FS2408-06
- FS2408-08
- FS2408-10
- FS2408-12
- FS2408-16
- FS2408-20
- FS2408-24
These sizes correspond to different ORFS connection requirements, allowing you to select the appropriate plug for your hydraulic port.
Always confirm the ORFS size before ordering to ensure the plug matches the connection being closed.
Designed for High-Pressure Applications
FS2408 ORFS Plugs are rated for working pressures up to 6,000 PSI, with the actual pressure capability depending on fitting size and overall system design.
They are suitable for hydraulic systems operating under demanding conditions, including applications involving continuous mechanical shock and vibration.
For extreme-pressure applications, verify the pressure rating of the complete hydraulic assembly and ensure all components are properly matched.
Protect Hydraulic Connections During Maintenance
An unused hydraulic port should not simply be left open. The FS2408 provides a purpose-built ORFS closure that can be installed when a hydraulic connection is no longer required or needs to remain temporarily closed.
This is especially useful during:
- Hydraulic system maintenance
- Equipment modification
- Manifold servicing
- Port isolation
- Hydraulic line replacement
- System assembly and testing
Common Applications
FS2408 ORFS Plugs can be used in:
- High-pressure hydraulic systems
- Hydraulic manifolds
- Mobile hydraulic equipment
- Construction machinery
- Industrial fluid-power systems
- Machine tools
- Automated hydraulic equipment
- Hydraulic service and maintenance applications
- Systems exposed to vibration and mechanical shock
