The Hex Nut is used with an O-ring elbow, a pipe fitting that changes the direction of fluid flow by 90 degrees. It threads onto the external threads of the elbow and compresses an O-ring seal against a machined surface on the fitting. This clamping action creates a tight seal that prevents leakage of fluids, gases, or other materials within the machine. The Hex shape allows for easy tightening with a wrench during assembly and disassembly. Attributes:• Withstand high internal pressure within the lines, ensuring the system operates efficiently without fluid loss• Withstands frequent use and mechanical stress without breaking or deformingApplications: The Hex Nut in an O-ring elbow creates a clamped joint by applying pressure against the O-ring seal, forming a leak-proof connection between two pipes or tubes.
