Midland Industries SS43-04-06L Metric Din Swivel Adapter 316 Ss

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES SS43-04-06L is a DIN 24-degree light straight adapter designed for crimp hose assemblies in hydraulic and fluid-transfer systems. It connects a 1/4-inch hose end (Hose Dash Size 4) to an L06 female metric swivel port using a DIN 24-degree light-duty seat geometry. The fitting is machined from 316 stainless steel, making it a practical choice for corrosive-fluid environments, marine installations, and chemical-transfer lines. The swivel end allows rotational positioning during makeup, which reduces assembly stress and simplifies routing in tight spaces. Plumbers, hydraulic technicians, and fluid-system installers working with metric DIN-ported equipment will encounter this fitting type frequently.

The SS43-04-06L belongs to Midland Industries 43 Series, which covers swivel metric DIN light-duty crimp hose fittings in stainless steel. It is intended for use with crimp hoses where one side terminates at a 1/4-inch hose I.D. and the mating port uses an M12 x 1.5 female metric thread with a DIN 24-degree light cone seat. Typical applications include hydraulic return lines, low-pressure fluid circuits, and industrial equipment plumbing where stainless corrosion resistance is required over carbon-steel or brass alternatives.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in harsh and chemical-exposure environments
• DIN 24-degree light straight seat geometry for accurate metal-to-metal sealing at the metric port
• Female metric swivel (L06) end accepts M12 x 1.5 thread pitch for compatibility with DIN-ported metric equipment
• 1/4-inch hose end (Dash Size 4) designed for use with crimp hose assemblies
• Swivel design allows rotational adjustment during installation to relieve hose assembly stress

Compatibility

Designed for use with crimp hoses terminating at a 1/4-inch hose I.D. and mating to DIN 24-degree light female metric swivel ports with M12 x 1.5 thread. Part of the Midland Industries 43 Series SS Crimp Hose Fittings line.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or pipefitter familiar with DIN metric fitting standards. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any hydraulic or fluid-transfer fitting. Inspect the mating port seat for damage or contamination before makeup, and verify thread pitch with a gauge to avoid cross-threading an M12 x 1.5 connection. Do not exceed the pressure and temperature ratings of the crimp hose assembly used with this fitting.
