Parker 560580 Ferulset Pre-setting Tool 3/8 Inch

Product Description

The PARKER 560580 is a Ferulset pre-setting tool designed to pre-set ferrules on Parker Ferulok flareless tube fittings before final assembly. Pre-setting the ferrule before installation ensures correct seating and consistent bite on the tube, reducing the risk of leaks in hydraulic and fluid-system connections. This tool is rated for 3/8 inch tube capacity. It is used by hydraulic technicians, pipefitters, and maintenance professionals working on flareless tube fitting assemblies in industrial and fluid-power applications.

The 560580 is intended for use with Parker Ferulok flareless tube fittings at the 3/8 inch tube size. Pre-setting tools like this are commonly used on new tube assemblies during fabrication or during maintenance when fittings are being replaced. The tool allows the installer to pre-bite the ferrule onto the tube in a controlled bench operation, separate from the final system make-up, which improves assembly accuracy and reduces connection failures in the field.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by hydraulic and pipefitting technicians during tube assembly preparation. Depressurize and isolate any hydraulic or fluid system before replacing or inspecting fittings. Follow the Parker Ferulok assembly procedure for proper pre-setting technique, including correct number of turns. Do not substitute this tool for other tube sizes, as incorrect ferrule pre-setting can result in connection failure.
