HYDRAULIC FITTINGS
HYDRAULIC FITTINGS
(OP)
Does anyone have a good link to where I can download hydraulic fittings (JIC, SAE, ORS, etc)? I have tried 3DCC but in the user library there are actually only a few. We buy tons of Aeroquip and Eaton parts but they do not have models available for download. I would even consider paying for a good size file if it was available (and contained most of whats available). I am spending way too much time hunting these things down in the SAE catalog and then modeling them. It is pushing my deadlines too far out.
Thanks for any suggestions,
BB

Solid models are the new way to get your part numbers on the bill of materials early.
Vendors who don't act on that are doomed.

Not all of the fittings have a CAD model to download and I don't know if they have the standards you use.

If it is not available, use the contact link on the page and ask for it, Parker will respond with a file.

And I agree with Mike, above. Who would be stupid enough not to provide at least basic CAD data formats on their site? Which is simpler for a designer/engineer to specify and sort out in the context of an assembly? A catalog number or a full-fledged 3D model? If they're making it, they've got CAD data, even if only in 2D PDF format. Stupid not to publish it.
Also, I seem to remember Swagelok having some 3D CAD models available--though I'm not sure if they've got anything that is specifically for use with hydraulic systems.

This means that if you design a product with #4 pipe fitting and need to change to o-ring and JIC all you have to do is replace the fittings without mate repair. If you design it with a straight fitting and the shop finds a 45 works better all you have to do is replace the part and adjust the rotational mate.
