pipe fittings are designed for low-pressure fluids of 300 psi or less. They are NOT designed for, nor safe, when installed in high-pressure hydraulic situations. National Pipe Tapered Fuel (NPTF ...

Damaged hydraulic cylinder can disrupt heavy machinery operations, but instead of replacing it with a costly new one, high-strength pipes from old ships are repurposed to craft a durable ...

It is beginning to show its age. In order to move the huge miter gates, galvanized steel pipes were installed as part of the lock's hydraulic system. Greg Barnes, Navigation and Fleet Operations ...

Weight loads include the weights of pipes, contents, insulation, valves, fittings, and possibly the supports. Gas, air, and steam lines that require hydraulic tests must also consider the added ...

Hydraulic circuits are comprised of cylinders, valves, pumps, and are connected via hydraulic pipes and tubes. The complexity of these components are difficult to represent fully so hydraulic ...

Often, that involves some sort of fluid such as water or air moving through pipes. If you don’t grasp hydraulics intuitively, [Practical Engineering] has a video you’ll enjoy. It explains how ...
