Parker 13943-6-4 Female Jic Swivel 90 Elbow Hose Fitting

Product Description

The PARKER 13943-6-4 is a short drop female JIC swivel 90-degree elbow hose fitting designed for hydraulic fluid conveyance systems. Machined from steel with a threaded connection type, this fitting is built to handle the mechanical demands of high-pressure hydraulic lines. It features a 0.25-inch (1/4 inch) hose inside diameter and a 9/16-18 thread size. The 90-degree elbow geometry allows routing in tight spaces where a straight fitting cannot clear surrounding components. Hydraulic technicians and industrial mechanics install this fitting when assembling or repairing hydraulic hose assemblies on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and fluid power systems.

This fitting is rated for use in hydraulic hose assembly applications where a JIC swivel connection is required at a 90-degree offset. The short drop profile keeps the fitting close to the port face, reducing lever arm stress on the hose end. It is used in both stationary and mobile hydraulic systems where hose routing demands a low-profile elbow at the termination point. Installation is common in agricultural equipment, construction machinery, and industrial fluid power circuits that use compatible Parker hose series.

Key Features

• Short drop profile reduces stress on hose and port in tight-clearance installations
• Female JIC swivel design allows rotation during assembly to prevent hose twist
• 90-degree elbow geometry supports clean hose routing away from ports
• Steel construction provides durability in high-pressure hydraulic environments
• 9/16-18 thread size for secure, leak-resistant threaded connection
• Meets ISO 12151-5 standards for hydraulic fluid power hose fittings

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician familiar with JIC thread assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic system completely before disconnecting any hose or fitting. Use a calibrated torque wrench and follow applicable fluid power assembly standards when tightening JIC fittings to avoid deforming the 37-degree flare seat. Inspect the mating seat and threads for damage before installation, and verify hose and fitting series compatibility before final assembly.
