Positionable SAE Male Elbow RLS-UP
Positionable SAE Male Elbow RLS-UP
↪ The "Positionable SAE Male Elbow RLS-UP" refers to a specific type of hydraulic fitting commonly used in fluid power systems.
➢ Elbow: Describes the shape of the fitting. An elbow fitting has a bent shape, typically forming a 90-degree or 45-degree angle. This allows for changes in direction within the hydraulic system.
➢ Positionable: Indicates that the fitting can be adjusted or positioned to a certain degree after installation. This feature allows for flexibility in the orientation of connected components, which can be beneficial in various applications where precise alignment is necessary.
➢ SAE Male: Indicates the type of thread and gender of the fitting. SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) refers to a standardized thread type commonly used in hydraulic systems. "Male" indicates that the fitting has external threads that screw into a corresponding female port or fitting.
➢ RLS-UP: This part of the term likely refers to a specific product series, model, or manufacturer's designation for the fitting. With further context, it's easier to provide specific details about this identifier. It could represent a series name, a size designation, or other product variations.

✜ A "Positionable SAE Male Elbow RLS-UP" fitting is a hydraulic fitting with adjustable positioning capabilities. It features external SAE male threads and an elbow shape for changing direction within the hydraulic system. The "RLS-UP" part likely identifies a specific product line or variant within a manufacturer's catalogue.
Sizes:
Standard sizes for SAE male fittings include 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4", 1", and larger diameters, typically measured in inches. Metric sizes such as M6, M8, M10, M12, M16, etc., may also be available, especially in international markets.Products:
➢ Positionable Elbow Fittings: These fittings allow for angular adjustment while maintaining a sealed connection. They are available in various angles, such as 45 degrees and 90 degrees.
➢ SAE Male Threaded Fittings: These fittings have external threads that conform to SAE standards for hydraulic connections. They are designed to be threaded into corresponding female ports or fittings.
➢ Hydraulic Adapters: These fittings allow for connection between different types of threads or sizes. For example, an adapter might enable you to connect a male SAE fitting to a female NPT (National Pipe Thread) fitting.
➢ Hydraulic Couplings: These fittings provide quick-connect and disconnect functionality for hydraulic systems. They may feature a positionable design for flexibility during connection and disconnection.

➢ Swivel Fittings: These fittings incorporate a swivel mechanism that allows for rotation, providing flexibility in the orientation of connected components.
➢ Banjo Fittings: These fittings feature a hollow bolt with a hose connection perpendicular to the bolt axis. They are commonly used in automotive and hydraulic applications.
➢ Bulkhead Elbows: These fittings are designed for installation through panels or walls, allowing for a sealed connection on both sides with one end swivelling for adjustment.
➢ Sealing: Proper sealing is essential to prevent leaks in the fluid or pneumatic system. Depending on the application and the type of fitting used, sealing may be achieved through the use of O-rings, gaskets, thread sealant, or other sealing methods.
➢ Installation: Positionable straight thread fittings are installed by screwing the threaded end into a compatible port or component using a suitable wrench or tool. The articulated joint allows for flexibility and adjustment as needed during installation or operation.
