Eaton 06Z-L68-BG Female Ors Swivel 45 Degree Elbow Fitting

Product Description

The EATON 06Z-L68-BG is a female ORS swivel 45-degree elbow hydraulic hose fitting machined from steel. It is designed to connect hydraulic hose assemblies to ORS (O-Ring Seal) port threads at a 45-degree angle, reducing stress on the hose line and allowing routing in tight or angled installations. The fitting accepts a 6 mm hose size and uses a 13/16-16 thread size. The FOR-SEAL shaft type ensures a leak-resistant connection through an O-ring face seal design. At 0.18 pounds, it is a compact, single-piece fitting suited for hydraulic system fabrication and repair work performed by hydraulic technicians and fluid power mechanics.

This fitting is used in hydraulic hose assemblies where a 45-degree angled transition is required between the hose end and an ORS-ported component such as a pump, valve, cylinder, or manifold. It is appropriate for both mobile and industrial hydraulic applications where a swivel connection is needed to ease assembly or accommodate hose positioning. The female swivel design allows the fitting body to rotate during installation, reducing hose twist and simplifying assembly in confined equipment compartments.

Key Features

• Female ORS swivel design with O-ring face seal for leak-resistant connections
• 45-degree elbow geometry reduces hose stress and aids routing in tight spaces
• 13/16-16 thread size for compatibility with standard ORS port connections
• 6 mm hose size designation for proper hose-end pairing
• 15/16 inch hex size for standard wrench installation
• Steel construction provides durability in high-pressure hydraulic service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement hydraulic hose fitting for systems requiring a female ORS swivel 45-degree elbow at a 13/16-16 thread size and 6 mm hose size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect the O-ring seal prior to installation and replace it if damaged or deformed. Use a calibrated torque wrench and the 15/16 inch hex to tighten to the fitting manufacturer's specified torque range for the thread size and material; do not overtighten. Follow applicable fluid power standards and equipment OEM service procedures throughout the repair.
