The Sun Hydraulics YKX (Material Number: YKX) is a line mount hydraulic manifold designed for cross pilot applications with a shuttle feature. This component is engineered with two open cavities and utilizes the T-17A cavity type, ensuring compatibility with specific hydraulic systems. The manifold features a 1 BSPP port size, allowing for secure and efficient connections in hydraulic circuits. It is constructed from 6061T651 aluminum, known for its excellent corrosion resistance and relatively high strength-to-weight ratio, making it suitable for various demanding environments. The manifold includes two mounting holes with a diameter of .42 inches (10.7 mm) that pass through the body, providing robust installation options. The Sun Hydraulics YKX model does not require anodizing due to the inherent corrosion resistance of its aluminum material, which simplifies manufacturing logistics and maintains cost-effectiveness while preventing potential issues associated with anodized surfaces, such as increased breakaway torque and reduced fatigue life. This design choice ensures longevity and reliability under typical operating conditions without compromising performance. This manifold serves as an essential component in hydraulic systems where precise control of fluid flow is necessary. Its design allows it to be integrated into custom hydraulic circuits or used as part of standard high-flow valve assemblies. The Sun Hydraulics YKX model's construction supports pressures up to 3000 psi (210 bar), making it suitable for medium-pressure applications across various sectors requiring robust fluid management solutions.
