Eaton 08Z-108-BG Hydraulic Hose Male Pipe Rigid Fitting

Product Description

The EATON 08Z-108-BG is a male pipe rigid fitting designed for hydraulic hose assemblies. It features a straight configuration with a 0.5-inch inside diameter and 0.5-inch outside diameter, threaded with a 1/2-14 NPTF shaft type for a leak-resistant, dry-seal connection. Constructed from steel, this fitting delivers the durability required in high-demand hydraulic systems. The overall length measures 2.74 inches, and the hex size is 7/8 inch. It belongs to Eaton's Z Series and conforms to SAE J1176 standards. Licensed plumbing and hydraulic technicians typically install this fitting as part of hose assembly or repair work.

This fitting is suited for use in hydraulic hose assemblies found in industrial and mobile equipment applications. It is designed for use with hose size 8 (1/2-inch hose diameter), making it appropriate for mid-range flow circuits where a rigid, non-swivel male pipe connection is required at a port or hose end. The straight shape simplifies routing in applications with direct in-line connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or pipefitter familiar with hydraulic hose assembly practices. Depressurize and bleed the hydraulic system completely before disconnecting any fittings or hose ends. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal assembly, but follow the equipment manufacturer's recommendations regarding thread sealants. Inspect the mating port threads and hose end for damage before assembly.
