Is the INTERLOCK SUPERCAT Straight Flange End, Carbon Steel compatible with 4SH, R13, and R15 hoses and suitable for high-pressure hydraulic systems?

Yes. The INTERLOCK SUPERCAT Straight Flange End, Carbon Steel is compatible with hose types 4SH, R13, and R15 and is suitable for high-pressure hydraulic systems. It is engineered with an O-ring seal (or alternative gasket) located in the flange groove to ensure optimal tightness under high pressure. Made from high-quality carbon steel with durable galvanization, it provides excellent resistance to corrosion, wear, and mechanical stress, supporting reliable, leak-free connections and long service life in demanding hydraulic applications.

What maintenance is recommended to ensure long-term leak-free performance of the INTERLOCK SUPERCAT Straight Flange End, Carbon Steel?

To ensure long-term leak-free performance of the INTERLOCK SUPERCAT Straight Flange End, Carbon Steel, follow these maintenance recommendations: - Regular inspection: Periodically check the flange, O-ring or gasket, and galvanised surfaces for signs of wear, corrosion, cuts, deformation or extrusion. Inspect after any high-pressure event or shock. - Seal replacement: Replace the O-ring or gasket at first sign of hardening, cracking, flattening or permanent deformation. Use the specified material and correct size placed in the flange groove. - Clean mating surfaces: Keep flange faces and grooves free of debris, dirt and corrosion. Clean with compatible solvents and a soft cloth to avoid damage to sealing surfaces. - Proper installation torque: Re-torque bolts to manufacturer-recommended values and follow proper flange alignment procedures to prevent uneven loading and seal extrusion. - Corrosion protection: Maintain galvanised coating; remove rust promptly and touch up with compatible protective coatings if coating is damaged. - Hose compatibility and routing: Ensure hoses (4SH, R13, R15) remain within recommended bend radii and are supported to avoid undue stress on the flange joint. - Pressure testing: Periodically perform leak and pressure testing per system protocols after maintenance or seal change. - Record keeping: Log inspections, replacements and tests to track service life and schedule proactive maintenance. Following these steps preserves sealing integrity and extends service life of the INTERLOCK SUPERCAT Straight Flange End, Carbon Steel.
