Customizable Metric Female Flat Seat Hydraulic Fitting FL20241 for Various Industrial Uses

We’re shiping these FL20241 45° elbows in medium carbon steel with a galvanized finish, good for up to 420 bar working pressure. The hex head makes installation straightforward, and the flat seat design gives a decent seal against leaks in oil, gas, or water systems—temperature range is -20°C to +100°C, which covers most shop floor conditions.

It’s basically a metric female flat seat fitting, so you’ll want to match it with the corresponding male cone end on your hose or tube. The 45° angle helps reroute lines in tight spaces, and we’ve seen it used a lot in mobile hydraulics and press appliction where you need that slight directional change without adding a separate adapter.

Most buyers go with the 45° over a straight fitting when they’ve got clearance issues, but it’s not ideal for high-flow systems where every bend adds pressure drop—that’s just physics. We’ve had guys try it on pneumatic lines, and it works, but the flat seat isn’t as forgiving with dry air as with oil.

Lead time runs 7-15 days typically, but we usually have stock on common sizes—confirm before ordering if you’re on a tight schedule. MOQ is negotiable, so don’t sweat the small quantities for prototyping; we’ll do a sample run (usually 5-10 pieces) if you need to test fit first.

The galvanizing holds up better than plain zinc in humid environments, but if you’re submerging it in salt water or aggressive chemicals, you’ll want to spec stainlss instead—our company can do that on custom orders. Also, the hex head is 17mm across flats on the standerd size, which is handy to know if you’re packing a limited tool set.
