How to Identify and Measure Fittings

Pipe size is an industry designation, not the actual size. View information about how to measure threaded and unthreaded pipe and pipe fittings.

About Conduit

Threaded Hose Fittings for Hydraulic Fluid

Fittings are threaded on both ends so you can connect them directly to a threaded hose or to pumps, cylinders, and other equipment in your hydraulic system.

Zinc-plated steel fittings are stronger and more durable than stainless steel fittings. They have fair corrosion resistance. 316 stainless steel fittings have excellent corrosion resistance.

Fittings that swivel until tightened rotate for easy installation.

NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads. NPSM (National Pipe Straight Mechanical) female threads are compatible with male NPT and NPTF threads.

Adapters for Thin-Wall (EMT) Steel Conduit

Use these adapters to attach thin-wall (EMT) steel conduit to a knockout in an outlet box or enclosure. A compression end offers a more reliable hold on conduit than a screw-clamp end. It pushes onto the conduit; tighten the compression ring to secure. The screw-clamp end tightens around conduit with a screw.

Access Ports for Metal Conduit

Also known as conduit bodies, these ports provide access to wire and cable inside conduit for pulling, splicing, and maintenance. They are also used to change the direction of a run. Connect to thick-wall (rigid) metal conduit. Aluminum and zinc-plated iron ports can connect to medium-wall (IMC) conduit. Ports with a set screw also connect to thin-wall (EMT) steel conduit without a compression connector.

All are corrosion resistant. 316 stainless steel ports offer the best corrosion resistance.
