Parker 10 Rtx-s Steel Male Run Tee 5/8 in Od 37 Degree Flare

Product Description

The PARKER 10 RTX-S is a steel male run tee fitting designed for flared tube connections in high-pressure fluid and pneumatic systems. It accepts a 5/8-inch tube OD on the flared ends and terminates in a 1/2-inch NPTF male thread on the branch port. The 37-degree flare angle conforms to the JIC standard, producing a metal-to-metal seal that holds up to 5000 psi maximum dynamic working pressure. This fitting is suited for hydraulic lines, fuel systems, and instrumentation tubing runs where a reliable inline branch connection is required. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic system technicians are the typical installers.

The 10 RTX-S is used in industrial, commercial, and mobile hydraulic applications where a tube run must be teed off with a male NPT port. It fits into systems using 5/8-inch OD steel tubing routed to pumps, valves, manifolds, or other threaded components. The Flare x MNPTF end configuration allows direct connection to NPT-ported equipment without additional adapters on the branch side, making it a practical choice for compact plumbing arrangements in tight equipment enclosures.

Key Features

• 37-degree JIC flare angle delivers a metal-to-metal seal rated to 5000 psi dynamic working pressure
• Male run tee configuration allows inline tube routing with a male NPT branch takeoff
• 5/8-inch tube OD flare ends accommodate standard 5/8-inch OD steel tubing
• 1/2-inch NPTF thread meets Dryseal standards, reducing reliance on thread sealant
• Steel construction provides strength and compatibility with hydraulic oils, fuels, and compressed gases

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid systems using 5/8-inch OD steel tubing with 37-degree JIC flared connections and 1/2-inch NPTF male ported equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or licensed plumber. Depressurize and drain the system completely before removing or installing any fitting. Inspect the tube flare and fitting seats for nicks or scoring before assembly, as surface defects will compromise the metal-to-metal seal. NPTF threads may be assembled without sealant per Dryseal design intent, but follow the applicable system specification and local codes for thread preparation.
