Due to the tight nature of getting to the orbitrol, I really wanted to get pipes made up before I had to try and undo the fittings on the oribtrol. I understand it might be OFRS or JIC, but wondered if anyone knew for sure what the type and size is before I set to and make a mess undoing it?
It is a 2018 New Holland T6 built in the UK and it will take a 30mm spanner to undo.
I’m only planning on undoing this coupling on the orbitrol, as I intend to take the outputs from the pipes nearer to the steering rams where I am mounting my valve.
For anyone else who may be interested, it looks like it should be an OFRS 1"-14 fitting, using the adapter shown to connect to the M22 port in the oribitrol.
I’m also looking to connect the steering pipes to the valve near the fuel filter. I am still trying to work out what connection those need to be. They are flat faced connections, so I’m assuming that they are likely to be 11/16" ORFS fittings, but I am confusing myself by having taken them apart and seeing that an M18x1.5 nut seems to screw onto the male thread. As far as I can tell, ORFS threads are not metric, so it must just be close enough that the nut can screw on whilst not being the correct fitting. Now I just need to find a 11/16 ORFS fitting to test to confirm!
