Product Summary

Longze High-Precision Banjo Bolts (DIN 7643 / SAE J514) are specialized hollow fasteners designed to facilitate fluid transfer in space-constrained hydraulic and fuel systems.

Manufactured in Yongnian, China, our banjo bolts feature precision-drilled cross-holes and a central flow gallery, allowing for high-pressure fluid passage through the bolt itself.

Whether for automotive brake lines, turbocharger oil feeds, or industrial hydraulic manifolds, Longze banjo bolts provide the leak-free reliability and compact orientation required for modern fluid power systems.

• ✔ Burr-Free Cross Holes: Our cross-drilled oil ports undergo a specialized deburring process to ensure smooth fluid flow and prevent damage to internal seals or banjo fittings.

•  

• ✔ High-Pressure Integrity: Produced from cold-drawn steel or stainless alloys, our hollow shanks are engineered with optimized wall thickness to withstand operating pressures exceeding 200 bar without deformation.

•  

• ✔ Precision Under-Head Surface: The sealing face under the bolt head is machined to a mirror finish (Ra < 0.8), ensuring a perfect metal-to-metal or gasket-supported seal with copper or bonded washers.

•

Avoid Pitfalls:

• Overtightening Failure: Because these bolts are hollow, they have lower torque limits than solid bolts. We recommend using a torque wrench and referring to our Torque vs. Pressure Charts to prevent shank snapping.

•  

• Cross-Hole Misalignment: If the side hole isn't centered within the banjo fitting's internal gallery, fluid flow is restricted. Longze ensures the hole position (L2) is within ±0.2mm tolerance for optimal flow.

•  

• Debris in Gallery: Any metal shavings left inside the hollow gallery can destroy a fuel injector or hydraulic pump. Every Longze banjo bolt undergoes Ultrasonic Cleaning and pressurized air-jet drying before packaging.

•  

Perfect Fit Assembly:

• Dual Washer Setup: Always use two new Longze Copper or Bonded Washers (one on each side of the banjo fitting) to ensure a high-pressure seal.

•  

• Matched Banjo Fittings: Ensure the internal diameter of your banjo eye matches the bolt diameter to prevent vibration-induced leaks or flow turbulence.

•  

Quality Control & Logistics:

• ISO 9001 Certified: 5-step QC including computerized leakage simulation, thread gauge verification, and high-pressure burst testing on random samples.

•  

• Sea-Worthy Packaging: Bolts are packed in plastic-lined 25kg cartons with protective dividers to prevent thread and sealing-face damage during export from our Yongnian hub.

• Q: Can you provide long-neck banjo bolts for double-banjo connections? A: Yes, we manufacture Double Banjo Bolts with two sets of cross-holes to connect two separate fluid lines to a single port.

• Q: Do you offer these in Imperial threads? A: Absolutely. We produce 7/16-20, 1/2-20, and other SAE J514 compliant hollow bolts for North American fuel and brake systems.
