Notes

• SAE J518 (ISO 6162-1 for Code 61, ISO 6162-2 for Code 62) 4-bolt split flange: a rectangle of four bolts around a central port; the O-ring sits in the flange head and seals on the port-block face. Code 61 (standard series) and Code 62 (high-pressure series) have the same port bore per dash size but different bolt spacing and bolt size, so the port blocks do not interchange. Pressure ratings are left out on purpose: they depend on size, maker and flange kit (the sources read give different tables).
• Spacing. Parker's 4400 catalog prints a port table with the letters A (dia max), B (thread), C and D (each in inches ± 0.010 and in mm ± 0.25): C is the long bolt-to-bolt distance and D the short one (the 1/2 in Code 61 row: C 1.50 in / 38.10 mm, D 0.68 in / 17.47 mm). Hydroscand's SAE flange table (letters not defined on its page) lists the long distance as 38.10 and the short as 17.38 for the same size; the two agree within Parker's ± 0.25 mm for every Code 61 size -8 to -32. The 'long / short' column pair shows Hydroscand's values for the same size, and its extra Code 61 sizes -40 to -80 and Code 62 -8.
• Code 62 -12 (3/4 in) disagrees: Parker 4400 prints 22.35 mm for the short spacing (0.88 in) and 47.75 mm for the long (labelled 2.00 in; 2.00 in is 50.8 mm), Hydroscand prints 23.80 / 50.80. The Parker long value does not match its own inch figure, so both are shown and no plate is drawn for that size. Code 62 -8 is not in the Parker 4400 table: its spacing (40.49 / 18.24 mm) is Hydroscand's alone (the long spacing agrees with hoseandfittings' 1-19/32 in = 40.5 mm), and it has no printed A dia, so no plate is drawn.
• Bolts: inch thread from Parker's flange kits and MFCP (the two agree for every size shown); metric ISO 6162 screw from MFCP, which marks Code 61 -32 (M12) and Code 62 -20 (M14) as not meeting ISO 6162. Hydroscand's inch column for Code 61 -48 (3 in) says 1/2, while Parker's kit and MFCP say 5/8-11: shown as 5/8-11 with the difference noted in the table. O-ring: AS568 2-2xx dash numbers from hoseandfittings and Parker's O-ring sheet (ID × W in inches, Parker); 2-241 and 2-245 (3 1/2 and 4 in) are hoseandfittings' alone.
• Files: ten port-pattern plates (Code 61 -8, -12, -16, -20, -24, -32 and Code 62 -16, -20, -24, -32): the central hole is the printed 'A dia max' diameter, the four holes are the bolt's nominal major diameter as a plain hole (tap or clear it as you need), at Parker's C × D spacing. Plate size, thickness (6 mm) and corner radius are Xem's choices. The flange head, O-ring groove and flange thickness are not drawn: the sources read give no groove dimensions.
• McMaster-Carr sells Code 61 and 62 split flanges, flange kits and flange adapters with per-part STEP; its identification page is linked, not copied. Parker's catalog pages (linked) are the maker source.
