Parker 8 C5OX-S Steel 90 Deg Flare Tube Elbow 1/2 in

Product Description

The PARKER 8 C5OX-S is a 90-degree straight thread elbow fitting designed for flared tube hydraulic and fluid power lines. Constructed from steel, it connects a 37-degree flared tube end to an SAE straight thread O-ring boss (SAE-ORB) port. The fitting handles a maximum working pressure of 6000 psi and is rated for service up to 500 degrees F. It is installed by licensed hydraulic system technicians, plumbers, and fluid power mechanics in applications requiring a leak-resistant, high-pressure elbow transition between a tube and a threaded port.

This fitting is suited for use in hydraulic systems, fluid power circuits, and high-pressure tubing assemblies found in industrial, mobile, and commercial equipment. The 1/2 inch tube OD and 3/4-inch UNF SAE-ORB thread make it a common choice when routing lines around obstructions or changing flow direction at a port face. Thread standard is UNF, conforming to SAE J514, ISO 8434-2, and SAE 070220.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow geometry for direction changes in tight plumbing layouts
• 37-degree flare seat on the tube end for a metal-to-metal leak-resistant seal
• SAE-ORB straight thread port end provides a positive O-ring face seal at the port
• Steel construction rated to 6000 psi maximum dynamic working pressure
• Temperature range up to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C)
• Meets ISO 8434-2, SAE J514, and SAE 070220 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for hydraulic and fluid power systems requiring a 1/2 inch OD 37-degree flare tube connection to a 3/4-inch SAE straight thread O-ring boss port.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or licensed mechanic familiar with SAE flare fitting procedures. Depressurize and bleed all hydraulic circuits completely before removing or installing fittings. Inspect the flare seat and O-ring groove for damage before assembly, and use a new O-ring on the SAE-ORB end torqued to the port manufacturer's specification. Do not over-tighten the flare nut, as this can deform the 37-degree seat and cause leaks.
