Parker 10643-6-8 Female Jic 37 Swivel Hose Fitting 1/2 in

Product Description

The PARKER 10643-6-8 is a straight female JIC 37-degree swivel hose fitting manufactured from steel. It connects to 1/2-inch (hose size 8) hydraulic hose via a threaded interface and uses a 9/16-18 thread size to mate with JIC female ports. The swivel design allows the fitting to rotate during installation, reducing hose twisting and making routing easier in tight hydraulic circuits. Overall length is 2.51 inches. This fitting is installed by hydraulic technicians and maintenance professionals working on fluid power systems in mobile, industrial, and stationary hydraulic applications.

This fitting is sized for 0.5-inch inside diameter hydraulic hose and is compatible with a wide range of Parker hose series. The 37-degree JIC flare interface is one of the most common connection standards in North American hydraulic systems, making this fitting a frequent choice for OEM assemblies, field repairs, and custom hose fabrication. Typical install locations include machinery, agricultural equipment, construction equipment, and industrial hydraulic power units where JIC threaded connections are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician. Depressurize and bleed down the hydraulic system fully before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect the JIC flare seat and mating port for damage or contamination before assembly. Follow the fitting manufacturer torque guidelines for 9/16-18 JIC connections and verify there are no leaks before returning the system to service.
