hydralic system fittings
(OP)
is there a pressure boundary standard for hydraulic and pneumatic pipe/hose and fittings?
do these systems need to registered or conform to ASME?

RE: hydralic system fittings
The stadards are set by hose size, type, application, fluid medium plus others factors...
Most hoses are made to an SAE spec, but other specs also apply.
The same goes for fittings, although the working pressure is governed more by the size. The bigger the fitting the lower the pressure rating.
Most fittings ultimately conform to ISO spec's and there are lots of different ones as well, again depending on application and material.
Parker.com is a good place to start looking as they pretty much own everthing hydraulic these days...

Can suggest that you read my reply again..?
I have generalised and explained that the spec's change depending on application. However most industrial hydraulic hoses, that is excluding special purpose hose for synthetic fluids, conform to an SAE spec.
The same goes for fittings. In the list of specifications that each fitting conforms to the 3 letters that appear more than any others are I,S and O.

I have not seen it in use any where else.
