Overview The 90-degree compression fittings and the assembly procedure for high-pressure grease hose:
For those industries that rely on heavy machinery and equipment, lubrication is key to extending service life. High-pressure grease hoses work their way into difficult-to-reach areas, providing that lubrication; but the correct fittings are just as important to ensure a leak-free, efficient system. Fat Adder provides 90-degree compression fittings specific for both 11.3mm and 8.6mm high-pressure hoses. Those applications demand not only flexibility but durability, too.
In this blog, we'll delve more deeply into how to use 90-degree compression fittings, nuts, and olives, and share best practices for assembling a high-pressure grease hose that optimizes your lubrication system.
Why 90-Degree Compression Fittings Are Essential for Grease Systems
In any lubrication system, but mainly for high-pressure applications, one wants to ensure that the connections are secure. Compression fittings are one such way to reliably obtain leak-free seals. The 90-degree design permits more flexible installation in tight or angular spots. From 6mm to 8mm to 10mm stainless tubes, these fittings will keep your connections tight.
Key Benefits:
Flexibility: 90-degree fittings allow for easier installation in confined spaces or when an angled connection is required.
Leak-Proof: It is designed to form a tight and secure seal that would not cause leaking in heavy pressure applications.
Durability: Constructed from stainless steel and other strong materials, these fittings can bear very high pressure and corrosive damage in an unforgiving atmosphere.

CF90101/4: 90-degree 1/4 BSP x 10mm tube compression fitting.
CF90J6MM, CF90J8MM, CF90J10MM: The 90-degree compression fitting joiners come with the respective size of tubes-6mm, 8mm, and 10mm.
Many of these fittings also come in stainless steel versions for applications that demand increased strength and anti-corrosive qualities.
Compression Nuts and Olives to Ensure Secure Connections
Besides the compression fittings, one would also need good-quality nuts and olives to provide a leak-free and secure connection in the grease line system. The FAT Adder group provides various sorts of compression nuts and olives with both normal and stainless steel to meet individual tube sizes and required pressure.
Key Products:
CN 6mm Nut LL & CO 6mm Olive LL: Standard 6mm compression nut and olive in low lead applications.
CNSS 6mm Nut (LL) & COSS 6mm Olive (LL): Versions in stainless steel, useful in offering greater corrosion resistance.
CN-8 8mm Nut (LL) & CO-8 8mm Olive (LL): Standard 8mm compression nut and olive for systems at high pressure.
CN-8-L-SS 8mm Nut (L) & CO-8-L-SS 8mm Olive (L): Stainless steel variants, used whenever extra strength and durability may be desirable.
Best Practices for Assembling High-Pressure Grease Hoses
High-pressure grease hoses call for proper assembly to avoid leakage, contamination, and malfunctioning systems. Here are some best practices in properly assembling your hoses and fittings:
Cleanliness is Key: Always clean all components thoroughly before assembling. These might just be small dirt or debris that may lead to possible bearing damage or poor performance of the lubrication system.
Cut Tubing Correctly: Grease tubing should always be cut squarely and cleanly with a sharp tube cutter. Poor cuts can lead to bad connections and leaks.
Lubricate Components: Before assembly, lubricate screw sleeves and threads on hose studs for a secure, tight fit without damage during installation.
Tighten Fittings Properly: While assembling the compression fittings, it is very important that the fittings are securely tightened. Sometimes over-tightening may result in damage to the fitting or hose.
This will be helpful in optimizing a grease line system for reliability and efficiency over an extended period of time.
