Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 19879 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 131, Fluid power systems, Subcommittee SC 4,
Connectors and similar products and components.
This first edition of ISO 19879 cancels and replaces ISO 8434-5:1995, which has been technically revised.

ISO 19879:2005(E)
Introduction
In hydraulic fluid power systems, power is transmitted and controlled through a liquid under pressure within an
enclosed circuit. Components must be designed to meet these requirements under varying conditions. Testing
of components to meet performance requirements provides a basis of assurance for determining design
application and for checking component compliance with the stated requirements.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 19879:2005(E)

Metallic tube connections for fluid power and general use —
Test methods for hydraulic fluid power connections
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies uniform methods for the testing and performance evaluation of metallic
tube connections, stud ends for ports and flange connections for use in hydraulic fluid power applications. This
International Standard does not apply to the testing of hydraulic quick-action couplings, which is covered by
ISO 7241-2.
Tests outlined in this International Standard are independent of each other and document the method to follow
for each test. See the appropriate component International Standard for which tests to conduct and for
performance criteria.
For qualification of the connector, the minimum number of samples specified in this International Standard are
tested, unless otherwise specified in the relevant connector standard or as agreed upon by the manufacturer
and the user.

references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced

4 General requirements
WARNING — Some of the tests described in this International Standard are considered hazardous. It
is therefore essential that, in conducting these tests, all appropriate safety precautions be strictly
adhered to. Attention is drawn to the danger of burst, fine jets (which can penetrate the skin) and
energy release of expanding gases. To reduce the hazard of energy release, bleed air out of test
specimens prior to pressure testing. Tests shall be set up and performed by properly trained
personnel.
4.1 Test assemblies
All components tested shall be in the final form, including annealed nuts, as required for brazed components.
Unless otherwise specified in the respective connector standard, Type 1 test assemblies shall be as shown in
Figure 1 for tube connections (for repeated assembly, leakage, proof, burst and cyclic endurance tests), and
Type 2 test assemblies shall be as shown in Figure 2 for male stud ends (for leakage, proof and, if specified,
burst and cyclic endurance tests). Alternatively, in order to test the connector to its full capability, use of the
metallic tube may be omitted for burst and cyclic endurance tests, and different configurations with similar
cap
