Parker 8010-4P-DC Hydraulic Nipple 1/2 in 3000 Psi Nptf Steel

Product Description

The PARKER 8010-4P-DC is a Connect Under Pressure female pipe thread nipple designed for hydraulic hose assemblies operating at up to 3,000 psi. Built from steel with an NPTF threaded connection, this straight fitting allows technicians to connect hydraulic lines without fully depressurizing the system first. The 1/2-inch body and 1/2-inch thread size pair with hoses and ports in the same nominal range. At 1.81 inches in overall length and a compact 1/2-inch body diameter, it fits in tight plumbing arrangements. Maximum flow rate is 12.00 GPM. Part of the Parker 8010 series, this nipple meets ISO 5675 standards and weighs approximately 0.20 pounds.

This fitting is used in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems where minimizing downtime is critical. The connect-under-pressure design is especially valuable in applications where full system shutdown is impractical, such as agricultural equipment hydraulics, construction machinery, and industrial fluid power circuits. Licensed hydraulic technicians and fluid power specialists install this fitting during hose assembly work, field repairs, and maintenance on pressurized hydraulic circuits. The straight configuration simplifies in-line connections without angular offset.

Key Features

• Connect-under-pressure design allows hose connection without full system depressurization
• 3,000 psi maximum working pressure rating
• Steel construction for durability in demanding hydraulic environments
• NPTF threaded connection provides a pressure-tight seal
• ISO 5675 compliant for standardized hydraulic coupling compatibility
• Maximum flow rate of 12.00 GPM suits mid-range hydraulic circuits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for 1/2-inch hydraulic hose assemblies with NPTF female pipe thread ports, conforming to ISO 5675 standards within the Parker 8010 series.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician familiar with fluid power systems and applicable safety procedures. Even though this fitting supports connect-under-pressure use, verify that system pressure is within the rated 3,000 psi limit before making the connection. Use appropriate thread sealant or tape rated for hydraulic service on NPTF threads as required by the application. Inspect the fitting body and threads for damage before installation and do not overtighten, as NPTF connections rely on thread interference for sealing.
