SAE-AS33514 sleeves are found throughout fixed-wing and rotorcraft platforms, including:
Ensuring a component's fitting end conforms to SAE AS33514 requires verification. While SAE International is the authoritative source for the standard, certification can be confirmed through other means. sae-as33514
The primary function of AS33514 is to provide a standardized interface for and gasket seals in aircraft fluid systems. Unlike traditional flared fittings that require the tube end to be mechanically spread, flareless fittings use a bite-type sleeve or a specific internal cone geometry to create a high-pressure seal. Key features of AS33514 include: sae-as33514
Under proof pressure and burst pressure tests, a fitting compliant with SAE-AS33514 must show zero detectable leakage (bubble-tight) when tested with gaseous nitrogen or hydraulic fluid per SAE-AS13531. sae-as33514
