Double-seal system
Uniport
10K stops leaks with a double seal (metal-to-metal and O-ring). Completed the
most severe testing program by SAE for a fluid connector/port system. Swivel
nut eliminates adapters when connecting to components and yields small component
envelope and light weight. Safe at higher operating pressures, and less chance
of over-torque at assembly. Offers simple port geometry.
