    3D models of hydraulic fittings

    Hi there,

    Anyone have an idea where I can find Solid Works models of hydraulic pipe and hose fittings (NPT, JIC)?

    Thanks in advance,

    Sebastian

    I have found LOTS of stuff at 3D Content Central run by Solidworks, including hydraulic fittings. Some manufacturers also offer 3D models.

    Thanks. But I've already search that site. I can't seem to be able to find the standard ones. Most everything is either for air or specialized. I'll keep searching though and post a link if I'll find it.

    I don't know folks, every time I downloaded a cad model I have to check it for accuracy. Often, I found that the 3D cad model was missing important features and simply wrong.

    Since you’re checking the model, just go ahead and model the component yourself -usually faster and you can save it in your parts library for future use.
