Zero Leak Technology
Zero-Leak Port
Entry Plugs and Fittings offer
significant advantages over old style
o-rings on SAE straight thread or pipe thread
plugs. They are guaranteed not to leak
or back out, even in vibrations,
temperature change and pressure spike
situations. They require no chemical
sealants, eliminating the risk of fluid
system contamination. |
|
|
|
|
|
Zero-Leak Plug
technology involves the use of the taper at
the mouth of standard SAE, ISO 6149 and
other similar ports, to form a
metal-to-metal seal with a specifically
designed feature of the male mate component. |
|
 |
This feature is comprised of
a tapered metal seat which
protrudes when assembled,
into the first few
thousandths of an inch of
the female taper of the
port. When torque is applied
to the assembled fittings,
an interface of
exceptionally high integrity
is formed metal-to-metal.
As a back up to the
primary metal-to-metal seal,
an elastomeric seal in the
form of an O-ring is also
provided creating the most
reliable and cost effective
Zero Leak Port Entry Plug in
existence.

Benefits of
Zero Leak Boss Port Plugs |
 |
Boss port plugs
provide backup seals
for no weep, and no
leak connections for
all applications |
|
|
Each seal works
independently |
|
|
Interchangeable with
standard plugs |
|
|
Will seal without
O-rings |
|
|
Exceptionally high
unit loading at the
interface |
|
|
Invokes elastic
memory between
mating parts for
extended life in
vibration |
|
|
Wide assembly torque
range |
|
|
Fittings will
repeatedly seal |
|
|
Increase choice of
materials for
service as high
torques are not
required |
|
|
Exceptionally
effective in
vibration,
temperature
variation or
pressure spike
situations |
|
|
Contributes to
significant system
cost reduction
|
|
|
Problems with Standard
Plugs |
|
|
No back up seal |
|
|
High assembly torque
required, leading to
stripped threads |
|
|
Poor resistance to
vibration |
|
|
Poor performance in
aluminum ports |
|
|
Fittings may work
loose in service,
eroding the O-ring
resulting in leaks |
|
|
Poor performance
where high
pressures,
temperature changes,
or shock loads are
present |
|
|
Surface defects or
inaccurate machining
of parts may result
in leaks |
