Parker 12-10 V5OLO-S Flareless Bite Type Tube Fitting

Product Description

The PARKER 12-10 V5OLO-S is a metal flareless bite type tube fitting designed for high-integrity tube connections in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid systems. Flareless bite type fittings use a ferrule that bites into the tube OD during assembly, creating a secure, leak-resistant seal without requiring the tube end to be flared. This design makes them well suited for field assembly where flaring tools may not be available. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic system technicians are the typical installers of this fitting type. At 0.483 pounds, the fitting is a compact, single-piece component intended for professional-grade tubing connections.

Flareless bite type tube fittings are used across residential and commercial applications wherever rigid or semi-rigid tubing must be joined to a port or system component. Common installations include hydraulic power units, refrigeration lines, compressed air systems, fuel lines, and instrumentation tubing runs. This fitting is packaged individually and is sold in single-unit quantities, making it appropriate for targeted repair or replacement work as well as new system construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed pipefitters, hydraulic technicians, or plumbers. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing any existing fitting or inserting this component. Follow the fitting manufacturer torque and assembly sequence guidelines for bite type ferrule fittings, as under- or over-tightening affects seal integrity. Applicable plumbing and hydraulic system codes should be consulted for the specific installation environment.
