Description
When your hydraulic system develops a leak or you need to build custom hose assemblies, having the right crimp fittings can save you time and money. This Parker 43 Series fitting gives you a solid, leak-proof connection between your 5/8-inch hydraulic hose and 3/8 NPT threads – perfect for those times when you need to connect hydraulic hoses to pumps, valves, or cylinders with standard pipe thread ports.
What You’re Getting
- Professional-grade Parker construction that meets OEM quality standards
- Straight rigid design provides strong, direct connection without movement or flex points
- Male NPT threads (3/8 x 18) fit standard hydraulic ports on equipment and components
- Crimp-on design creates permanent, reliable connection that won’t come apart under pressure
- 43 Series specification ensures compatibility with standard crimping equipment
Built for Real Farm Work
This fitting handles the hydraulic pressures you’ll find on loaders, three-point hitches, remote hydraulic outlets, and implement connections. Whether you’re building new assemblies for your shop or replacing damaged fittings on existing hose lines, this straight connection works on everything from compact utility tractors to large row-crop machines that rely on hydraulics for daily operation.
Made to Last
Parker builds these fittings to handle the pressure spikes, vibration, and temperature swings that come with farm equipment. The rigid construction won’t crack or loosen like some cheaper alternatives, and the NPT threads are machined to proper specs so they seal correctly with thread sealant without cross-threading or galling.
Installation Notes
You’ll need the right crimping dies for your crimper to install this fitting properly – check Parker’s crimp specs for the correct die size. Use appropriate thread sealant on the NPT threads, but don’t overtighten as this can crack the fitting body. A proper crimp creates a stronger connection than any reusable fitting, so it’s worth doing right the first time.
