A crimp joint is a common accessory for connecting pipes. It is also known as a hydraulic hose joint. It mainly consists of three parts: joint body, nut and sleeve. Normally, the joint body and sleeve will have a thread that tightly connects the joint together by rotating the sleeve. In this process, the gasket in the sleeve plays a key role in ensuring the tightness and stability of the connection.
Crimp joints are widely used in industrial production, especially in the oil, gas and chemical industries. Since the working condition is very harsh, there is a need for a connection method that can withstand that. Crimp joint is not only suitable for high temp and high pressure use, but can also withstand chemical corrosion and mechanical impact. Therefore, it widely serves in various pipe connections that require high strength and high sealing.
Crimp joint material
The materials of crimp joints are very diverse. It is usually stainless steel, carbon steel, alloy steel, titanium alloy, nickel alloy, etc. These materials have high corrosion and wear resistance with high strength. Thus it can ensure the crimp joint is reliable and stable in long-term use. When you select high pressure joints, it is necessary to select the proper material based on the specific use. Then you can ensure the quality and stability of the connection.
