: Unlike flared fittings that require the tube end to be widened, flareless fittings use a sleeve or ferrule that bites into the outer diameter of the tube, creating a mechanical seal.
As of , SAE AS33514 was designated as inactive for new designs . While it remains widely used for the maintenance and repair of existing aircraft, new aerospace projects are generally directed toward alternative standards:
: Pitch diameter and specific fitting diameters must be concentric within .008 to .005 full indicator movement (F.I.M.).
is an aerospace standard that specifies the design requirements and standard dimensions for a flareless tube connection and gasket seal fitting end. Originally derived from the United States Military Specification MS33514 , it serves as a critical blueprint for ensuring the mateability and performance of fluid system components in high-stress aerospace environments.
