Eaton 202702-8-8S Flared Tube Straight Thread Connector

Product Description

The EATON 202702-8-8S is a steel flared tube straight thread connector designed for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid power line applications. It features a 37-degree flare on one end and a male SAE O-Ring (ORB) thread on the other, creating a reliable leak-resistant seal between flared tubing and ported components. With a maximum working pressure of 9000 psi and an operating temperature range of -40 to 250 degrees F, this fitting is built for demanding service conditions. The 0.5-inch tube OD and 0.5-inch thread size make it a direct, compact solution for connecting steel tubing to manifolds, valves, and hydraulic equipment.

This connector is used in hydraulic plumbing systems found in industrial machinery, mobile equipment, and fluid power circuits. It suits applications where a flared tube line must terminate at a straight-thread O-ring boss port. Licensed hydraulic technicians and fluid power mechanics typically install this fitting during system assembly or repair. Its compact 1.48-inch overall length allows installation in tight plumbing configurations where space around ports is limited.

Key Features

• 37-degree flare end mates with standard SAE flared tube connections
• Male SAE O-Ring (ORB) straight thread end provides a positive, leak-resistant port seal
• Rated to 9000 psi maximum working pressure for high-pressure hydraulic service
• Operating range of -40 to 250 degrees F covers most hydraulic fluid service conditions
• Steel construction for strength and durability in fluid power applications
• Compact 1.48-inch overall length suits installations with limited clearance

Compatibility

Designed for use in hydraulic and fluid power systems requiring a 0.5-inch OD flared tube connection to a male SAE O-Ring boss port conforming to SAE 070120 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed hydraulic technicians or fluid power mechanics. Depressurize and bleed the hydraulic system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Inspect the O-ring and seating surface for damage before assembly, and use the correct SAE O-ring for the port size. Do not overtighten; follow the fitting manufacturer and equipment OEM assembly procedures for straight-thread O-ring boss connections.
