Applications

Agricultural harvesters and sprayers

In articulated boom circuits and hydraulic controls exposed to constant vibration and uneven terrain, DKO hydraulic adapters maintain a stable seal, mitigate soil contamination from oil leaks, and reduce the need for corrective maintenance. The dual seal withstands the rapid cycles and pressure spikes typical of field maneuvers, preserving overall system efficiency.

Tractors and tillage implements

In reversible plow cylinders, leveling harrows, and subsoilers, the 24° O-ring profile delivers a robust connection against impacts and cyclic loads, ensuring precise actuation responses. Torque repeatability minimizes the risk of loosening and sustains productivity during extended work shifts.

Dump trucks and highway vehicles

During the tipping of dump bodies and platforms, DKO connections contribute to a safe, continuous operation by maintaining a complete seal over repetitive cycles. Their high torque resistance helps preserve assembly integrity following periodic maintenance and inspections across highway fleets.

Boom mowers and side sweepers

Exposed to dust, debris, and extreme temperature fluctuations, articulated arm systems benefit from the resilient sealing of the O-ring and conical seat. This reduces micro-leaks and maintains stable pressure, ultimately extending maintenance intervals and optimizing equipment uptime.

Presses and compactors

In machines requiring constant high pressure, the dual sealing design prevents progressive fluid losses that can compromise force and speed. The result is a more consistent cycle, reduced oil consumption, and an improved hourly yield, particularly in continuous industrial operations.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is DKO compatible with my current equipment?

In general, yes, thanks to the metric and UNF options and the use of adapters when necessary. Check the thread/port pair and the machine pattern.

What is the practical gain in the field?

Fewer microleaks, faster assembly and less rework, which translates into more available machines and lower fluid consumption throughout the life cycle.

What is the difference between DKO adapters and conventional JIC adapters?

DKO (Double Cone O-ring) adapters use a double O-ring sealing system, while traditional JICs have only one sealing cone. The DKO system reduces leaks by up to 98% and offers a useful life 3 times longer, with tolerance to multiple assembly and disassembly without loss of efficiency.

PTFE tape or liquid sealant?

Use PTFE tape if the connection will be retightened periodically. Prefer anaerobic sealant for permanent sealing and greater vibration resistance.

In agricultural hydraulic circuits, seal failures can halt a harvester during peak harvest season and drive up maintenance costs. The dual sealing system with O-ring effectively eliminates leaks even under intense vibration and pressure spikes, reducing unplanned downtime and fluid losses by up to 95% when installed per specifications.

The 24° self-centering cone speeds up assembly by up to 40% compared to conventional connections, minimizes rework, and enhances torque repeatability.

Helesul DKO hydraulic adapters (Double Cone O-ring) are engineered for high-reliability sealing in high-pressure hydraulic systems, combining a 24° self-centering cone and O-ring for consistent performance in agricultural machinery and road applications.

With robust construction, they cut leaks, simplify assembly, and boost equipment uptime even under vibration, intense cycles, and harsh environments.

All Helesul hydraulic adapters are manufactured to ISO, SAE, and DIN standards, ensuring interchangeability, safety, and predictable field performance.
