This design standard specifies the dimensions of the externally threaded fitting end to be assembled into an internally threaded fluid system port, using an elastomeric o-ring for sealing. Fitting end dimensions and o-ring sizes agree with ISO 7320-1985.
These formulae shall be used to determine drop dimensions for simple bend tube fittings utilizing flare and flareless end connection designs from 0° to 90° used in aircraft and aerospace applications. Individual design standards shall specify parameters, such as centerline bend radius (R), straight tangent length to accommodate bending equipment (X1 and X2), and nut to be used.
