70% to passOf the hydraulic tubing fittings illustrated, the flared fitting for high-pressure use is represented by figure _______________. Illustration GS-0100
AA or B
BA or C
CB or C
DC or D
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A. The flared fitting for high-pressure use is represented by figure A or B in the illustration GS-0100. Flared fittings, also known as inverted flare or double flare fittings, are commonly used for high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic systems. They create a leak-proof seal by deforming the end of the tubing into a flared shape that tightly grips the fitting. This design is preferred for high-pressure applications compared to other fitting types. Figures A and B in the illustration depict flared fittings, while figures C and D show other types of tube fittings not suitable for high-pressure use.
