Parker 15420 Female Swivel Jic Hose Fitting 7/16-20

Product Description

The PARKER 15420 is a reusable female swivel hose fitting designed for JIC (Joint Industry Council) hydraulic and fluid line connections. It features a 7/16-20 JIC thread and is sized for hose with a 3/16 inch inner diameter and 1/4 inch outer diameter. The swivel design allows the fitting body to rotate during installation, reducing hose twist and making assembly easier in tight or awkward routing situations. This fitting is intended for use by hydraulic technicians, plumbers, and fluid system mechanics working on low- to medium-pressure lines where a reusable, field-serviceable connection is required.

This fitting is well suited for hydraulic tubing assemblies, fluid transfer lines, and similar applications found in light industrial, mobile equipment, and mechanical service environments. The reusable design means the fitting can be disassembled and reinstalled on replacement hose without requiring a hydraulic press or crimping equipment, making it practical for field repairs and low-volume assembly work. Hose compatibility is limited to lines with a 3/16 inch ID and 1/4 inch OD as specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hydraulic or fluid system technicians familiar with JIC flare fittings. Depressurize and drain the fluid system completely before disassembling any hose or fitting. Follow the manufacturer assembly procedure for reusable fittings, which typically involves threading the socket onto the hose before inserting the nipple. Torque the swivel nut to the fitting manufacturer specification and inspect for leaks before returning the system to service.
