This hydraulic cylinder port has threads that stay the same size. The threads do not make the seal by themselves. A separate sealing part is needed. BSPP ports are found in <a  rel=\"nofollow noopener\">European and imported machines<\/a>. They are used a lot in Europe and Asia. Many hydraulic cylinders, valves, and pumps from other countries use BSPP ports.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sealing Method<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>BSPP ports seal with a washer or O-ring. The washer or O-ring sits on a flat surface inside the port. When you tighten the fitting, the seal gets squeezed and stops leaks. The straight threads make it easy to put together. They also help stop thread damage or tightening too much. This way does not bend the threads, so the connection stays steady. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.njadapter.com\/how-to-seal-bsp-fittings.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Do not use washers or O-rings again after taking them out<\/a>.

They use straight threads that do not get smaller at the end. The male fitting screws right into the female port. The threads do not change shape to make a seal. This makes a strong connection. SAE ports are popular in hydraulic systems. They give safe and leak-free connections. The threads fit closely together. An O-ring helps stop leaks. Many engineers like to use these ports.<\/p>\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading {\"level\":3} -->\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sealing Approach<\/h3>\n<!-- \/wp:heading --><!-- wp:paragraph -->\n<p>SAE ports use an O-ring to seal. The O-ring sits in a groove inside the female port. When you tighten the male fitting, the O-ring gets squeezed. This makes a tight seal that stops leaks. You do not need sealant or tape with these threads. The O-ring does all the sealing work. It works even when there is high pressure or shaking. This stops leaks that can happen with other thread types.
