Combine harvesters and agricultural sprayers
In boom circuits and hydraulic controls exposed to constant vibration and uneven terrain, DKO hydraulic adapters maintain stable sealing, mitigate soil contamination from oil, and reduce corrective interventions. The dual sealing system withstands rapid cycles and pressure spikes typical of field maneuvers, preserving system efficiency.
Tractors and soil preparation implements
In cylinders of reversible plows, leveling harrows, and subsoilers, the 24° profile with O-ring provides a robust connection against impacts and cyclic loads, ensuring precise actuation response. Torque repeatability minimizes loosening and sustains productivity during extended working hours.
Dump trucks and on-road trucks
In tipping operations of beds and platforms, DKO connections support safe and continuous operation, maintaining full sealing throughout repetitive cycles. High torque resistance helps preserve assembly integrity after maintenance and periodic inspections in road fleets.
Mowers and side sweepers
Exposed to dust, debris, and thermal variations, articulated arm systems benefit from the resilient O-ring sealing and conical seat, reducing microleaks and maintaining stable pressure. This extends maintenance intervals and optimizes equipment uptime.
Presses and compactors
In machines operating under constant high pressure, the dual sealing system prevents progressive fluid losses that degrade force and speed. The result is a more consistent cycle, lower oil consumption, and higher hourly output, especially in continuous industrial operations.

In agricultural hydraulic circuits, sealing failures can bring a combine harvester to a halt during peak harvest, leading to high maintenance costs. The dual O-ring sealing system helps eliminate leaks even under intense vibration and pressure spikes, reducing unplanned downtime and fluid loss by up to 95% when installed according to specifications.
The 24° self-centering cone speeds up assembly by up to 40% compared to conventional fittings, reduces rework, and improves torque repeatability.
Helesul DKO (Double Cone O-ring) hydraulic adapters are engineered for high-reliability sealing in high-pressure hydraulic systems, combining a 24° self-centering cone with an O-ring to ensure consistent performance in agricultural machinery and road applications.
With a robust construction, they reduce leaks, simplify assembly, and increase equipment uptime even under vibration, intensive cycles, and harsh environments.
All Helesul hydraulic adapters are manufactured in accordance with ISO, SAE, and DIN standards, ensuring interchangeability, safety, and predictable field performance.
