Eaton 10004B-604 Barbed Hose Female Connector 1/4 in Brass

Product Description

The EATON 10004B-604 is a barbed push-on hose female connector designed for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid-transfer applications. Manufactured from brass, this fitting accepts a 1/4 inch barb and threads onto a 7/16-20 UNF male port. It is rated to a maximum working pressure of 7000 psi, making it appropriate for demanding hydraulic circuits, fluid power systems, and pneumatic lines where a secure push-on hose termination is required. The 9/16 inch hex flat allows standard wrench installation. Licensed technicians and fluid power mechanics working on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and hydraulic assemblies are the primary installers of this fitting.

This connector is suited for use in hydraulic hose assemblies where a push-on style connection is specified at a female threaded port. The 7/16-20 UNF thread is a common straight-thread size found on hydraulic valves, cylinders, pumps, and manifold ports. The 1/4 inch barb accommodates matching push-on hose I.D. A cut-off allowance of 3/4 inch is built into the design, giving technicians the clearance needed during hose assembly. The compact overall length of 1.38 inches suits tight-space installations in mobile and industrial hydraulic systems.

Key Features

• 7/16-20 UNF straight thread for direct port connection
• 1/4 inch barb for push-on hose attachment
• Rated to 7000 psi maximum working pressure
• Brass construction for corrosion resistance in fluid and pneumatic service
• 3/4 inch cut-off allowance built into fitting geometry
• 9/16 inch hex flat for wrench tightening

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/4 inch I.D. push-on hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 7/16-20 UNF female connector fitting. Consult your hose manufacturer specifications to confirm pressure rating and hose-to-fitting compatibility before assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fluid power technician or mechanic familiar with hydraulic hose assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect the mating port thread and sealing surfaces for damage before assembly. Follow applicable industry standards for torque and hose-end preparation; do not over-extend the hose past the cut-off allowance marked on the fitting.
