The Sun Hydraulics Y6L (Y6L) is a line mount manifold designed to accommodate high flow valves with precision and reliability. Constructed from 6061-T651 aluminum, this manifold offers superior corrosion resistance without the need for anodizing, ensuring long-term durability even in challenging environments. The Y6L features a body type specifically designed for line mounting, with a mounting hole diameter of 0.42 inches (10.7 mm) and includes 22 mounting holes to ensure secure installation. It supports two open cavities, designated as T-22A, allowing for versatile hydraulic configurations. The port size is SAE 12, which provides compatibility with various hydraulic systems and components. This manifold is particularly suitable for applications requiring robust performance at pressures up to 3000 psi (210 bar), making it ideal for demanding hydraulic systems where reliability and efficiency are paramount. Its design facilitates easy integration into existing systems while maintaining the structural integrity required for high-pressure operations. Due to its construction material and design considerations, the Y6L ensures optimal fatigue life and minimal maintenance requirements over its operational lifespan. The Sun Hydraulics Y6L is engineered to meet rigorous industry standards, providing users with a high-quality solution for managing fluid dynamics in complex hydraulic applications. Its versatility and durability make it an excellent choice for professionals seeking reliable performance in their hydraulic systems without compromising on safety or efficiency.

Show FAQ

Why does Sun use 6061 aluminum?	6061-T651 is relatively strong, relatively inexpensive, difficult to machine, readily available in all shapes and sizes and very corrosion resistant. 2024 is stronger and machines beautifully, but is expensive and falls to pieces in a corrosive environment.
Why doesn't Sun anodize their aluminum bodies?	Reasons to anodize: To increase corrosion resistance. Sun uses 6061-T651 aluminum. It is one of the most corrosion resistant aluminum alloys there is. Whether or not anodizing improves the corrosion resistance of 6061 aluminum is debatable. We have yet to have a manifold returned because of corrosion. Appearance (color). The 2 colors that would appeal to Sun would be blue or black. Unfortunately these are the colors that are hardest to do consistently. To provide a hard wear surface. Sun does not make parts-in-body valves. The manifold is just plumbing. We don't need a wear surface. Because everyone else does it. Bad reason. Reasons to not anodize: Cost. It's another process. Logistics. When you make tens of thousands of manifolds a month and you anodize hundreds, it's a problem. Consistency. See above. Stamping. After a body is anodized you cannot do any more stamping without making a mess.Inspection. Have you ever tried to look for burrs in a black anodized body? It's the old blackboard factory at night scenario. Torque. You will experience an increase in breakaway torque when removing items from an anodized manifold. Fatigue life. This is the best reason to not anodize. Fatigue failure is a very complex phenomenon. What it takes to initiate a crack is difficult to predict. What it takes to propagate a crack is readily defined. Anodizing produces a very thin, very hard, and very brittle surface on aluminum. The first time you pressurize an anodized aluminum manifold you have initiated fatigue cracks. Whether or not the stress is enough to propagate the cracks is a matter of pressure and manifold geometry. Anodizing an aluminum manifold grossly reduces the fatigue life by anywhere from 20% to 50%.
How big is a drop of hydraulic oil?	There are exactly 250 Sun drops in a cubic inch or 15 in a cc.

Notes:

Important: Carefully consider the maximum system pressure. The pressure rating of the manifold is dependent on the manifold material, with the port type/size a secondary consideration. Manifolds constructed of aluminum are not rated for pressures higher than 3000 psi (210 bar), regardless of the port type/size specified.
