Description
When you’re plumbing hydraulics on your tractor or implement, you need fittings that can handle the angles without kinking the hose or creating stress points. This 90-degree swivel elbow gives you the flexibility to route hydraulic lines around tight corners while maintaining full flow and pressure. Whether you’re working on loader lines, remote valve connections, or three-point hydraulics, this fitting makes the job easier.
Key Features
- Swivel design lets the hose rotate freely, preventing binding and wear
- 90-degree elbow configuration saves space and reduces hose stress in tight spots
- M16 x 1.5 metric thread connects to European-style hydraulic components commonly found on modern equipment
- Crimp-on design creates a permanent, leak-proof connection when properly installed
- Heavy-duty construction handles the pressure and vibration of hydraulic systems
Built for Real Farm Work
This fitting is designed for 3/8 inch hydraulic hose, which is commonly used for auxiliary hydraulic circuits, loader functions, and remote valve applications. You’ll find this size and thread combination on a lot of European tractors and implements, especially those with metric hydraulic systems. The swivel feature is particularly handy when you need to connect hoses that might twist or move during operation.
Made to Last
Parker’s 43 series fittings are built to handle the demands of agricultural hydraulic systems. The steel construction and precision threads ensure a secure connection that won’t leak under pressure or come loose from vibration. The swivel mechanism is designed to turn smoothly even after years of use in dusty, dirty conditions.
Good to Know
This is a crimp-on fitting that requires proper crimping equipment and dies for installation. Make sure your hose is cut square and clean before crimping. The metric L thread design provides a reliable seal when properly tightened—just snug it up, don’t over-torque it. Always use thread sealant on hydraulic fittings to prevent leaks.
