Straight Thread Types, Port Connections
ORB = o-ring boss per SAE J1926, ISO 11926
MPP = metric pipe parallel o-ring boss per SAE J2244, ISO
6149, DIN 3852
MFF = metric flat face port per ISO 9974-1
BSPP = British standard parallel pipe per ISO 1179-1, DIN 3852-
2
Flange Connection Types
FL61 = code 61 flange per SAE J518, ISO 6162
FL62 = code 62 flange per SAE J518, ISO 6162
Tightening Methods
Torque = Application of a twisting force to the applicable con-
nection by use of a precise measurement instrument (i.e.
torque wrench).
Finger Tight = The point where the connector will no longer
thread onto the mating part when tightened by hand or fin-
gers. Finger Tight is relative to user strength and will have
some variance. The average torque applied by this method is 3
ft. lb. (4 Nm). Also referred to as ‘Hand Tight.’
TFFT = Turns From Finger Tight; Application of a preload to a
connection by first tightening the connection by hand (fin-
gers) and applying an additional rotation counted by a
defined number of turns by use of a tool.
FFWR = Flats From Wrench Resistance; Application of a pre-
load to a connection by tightening to the point of initial
wrench resistance and turning the nut a described number of
‘flats’. A ‘flat’ is one side of the hexagonal tube nut and equates
to 1/6 of a turn. Also referred to as the ‘Flats Method.’
