I know this is an old post...But I am running into the same problem...Very incomplete/non-existant libraries for hydraulic fitting.
I am in need of flareless fittings (high pressure hydraulics) with 45deg, 90deg, straight and ends that connect to a tractor. All of these need to be swivel/non-swivel types with male and female ends.
Having the library (s) as iparts would really help out a lot.
Like the original poster mentioned, your best bet is going to be the fitting manufacturer, if you can't get what you're looking for off cbliss or another model sharing site. Suppliers like Parker often have part models available directly to download from their website. Sometimes even if they don't have a part uploaded to the site, they will actually have a model they can send out to you directly. I've gotten a suprising number of models sent to me by Parker and other manufacturers simply by asking for it on their general contact email or form.
Well I have gone to Parker's web site and they don't have what I am looking for. But if I have to I guess if I have to a manufacture I can. But, I was hoping that for an iPart because I have several different sizes I need.
Even if you got it from Parker it wouldn't be an iPart.
Internally, some of their fittings are modeled as iParts, but the version uploaded to the website for customers has the table link broken. If you can't find an iPart on some community site (like cbliss), you're not going to find one.
Do you know of any others like CBliss's site that has iParts that I could look thru to see if they have anything I could use? I used to have a buch of different sites, but when my system went down I lost them.
No, I don't. Most of what we have came from there, or from downloading or requesting models from manufacturers. Our library is a mix of iParts and single parts for that reason - as far as I can remember, all of the iParts were either from cbliss or made by us, patterning after the cbliss iPart models.
Here are some you can check out.
