Parker 20620-4-5 Jic Female Swivel Hose Fitting 1/4 in

Product Description

The PARKER 20620-4-5 is a 2-piece reusable female swivel hose fitting designed for JIC hydraulic and fluid-transfer connections. It features a 7/16-20 JIC thread and accepts hose with a 1/4-inch inner diameter. The 2-piece reusable construction allows the fitting to be disassembled, inspected, and reinstalled on compatible hose without requiring new hardware, reducing service time in the field. This fitting is used by hydraulic technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors working on fluid-conveyance systems where a reliable, leak-resistant swivel end connection is required.

This fitting is suited for low- to medium-pressure hydraulic lines, fuel lines, and general fluid-transfer assemblies using 1/4-inch hose. The female swivel design accommodates movement and routing flexibility at the connection point, making it a practical choice for tight installations or assemblies subject to vibration. It is commonly installed in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and HVAC hydronic systems where JIC-style fittings are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or mechanical contractor. Depressurize and drain the fluid system completely before removing or installing any hose fittings. Thread engagement should follow JIC assembly standards, ensuring proper flare-to-seat contact without over-torquing. Inspect hose end condition before reusing the fitting to confirm a proper seal.
