Your Fitting “Leak-Free”, Guaranteed!
The Flaretite Seal is a stainless steel stamping, designed with multiple, concentric sealing rings. The entire seal is coated with a dry-to-the-touch, baked-on Loctite™ sealant. When inserted into a fitting, the concentric rings form multiple seals down the face of the flare, while the Loctite coating fills minor imperfections, dramatically increasing the integrity of the fitting. New ISO and NFPA standards strongly recommend seals for all fittings.

Fits all standard JIC/SAE/JIS flare fittings, hydraulic and pneumatic!
Protects against weeping on new and damaged fittings!
Creates a perfect “Leak-Free” clip-on seal, Guaranteed!
Complies with the latest International standards!
The sealing rings prevent environmental debris and aggressive cleaning solvents from attacking the sealing face while the Loctite™ protects the face from fretting, galling and over-tightening. And unlike ORFS fittings, the Flaretite Seal will not fail during a fire, allowing atomized hydraulic oil to fuel the fire.

Flaretite Seals are easy to install in any standard hydraulic or pneumatic SAE, JIC, or JIS fitting.

The Result
A permanent, "Leak-Free" connection, which exceeds the performance of today's ORFS fittings, and at significantly less cost, while maintaining the low profile, versatility, and world-wide availability of flared fittings. Flared connections fitted with Flaretite Seals are today's answer to low cost, high integrity, "Zero-Leak" fittings, while complying with new international standards.
This unique seal may be fitted to JIC, SAE, and JIS hydraulic and pneumatic fittings. The introduction of the Flaretite Seal eliminates the weakness in the original flare design. Flaretite's approach to the global market is to target sales to national distributors and OEM's worldwide. Sales offices are based in the USA, Australia and the UK.
