Parker B10-3-A8T Hydraulic Cartridge Valve 20 Gpm 3000 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER B10-3-A8T is a three-way, in-line cartridge body valve designed for hydraulic control circuits operating at up to 3,000 psi. Built with an aluminum body and a 7/8-14 UNF threaded connection, it accepts standard C10-3 cavity cartridge inserts and supports flow rates up to 20 GPM. At 2.5 inches in overall length and 2.63 inches in overall height, the compact envelope makes it well suited for manifold-mounted and space-constrained installations. Hydraulic system technicians and fluid power specialists are the primary installers for this component.

This valve is applied in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems that require three-way directional or flow control in an in-line cartridge format. The C10-3 cavity size is a widely used standard in hydraulic manifold design, making this body compatible with a range of system configurations. Typical installations include hydraulic power units, mobile equipment control circuits, and custom manifold assemblies where a cartridge-style valve body is specified. The aluminum construction keeps weight low in weight-sensitive mobile applications.

Key Features

• Three-way flow regulation type for directional control in hydraulic circuits
• Maximum working pressure of 3,000 psi for high-demand hydraulic systems
• Maximum flow rate of 20 GPM through a 7/8-14 UNF threaded port
• C10-3 cavity size accepts standard cartridge inserts
• Aluminum body reduces overall assembly weight
• Compact footprint at 2.5 inches overall length and 1.25 inches overall width

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style in-line cartridge body for hydraulic systems using C10-3 cavity cartridge valves with 7/8-14 UNF threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic system technician. Depressurize and de-energize the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any valve body. Use appropriate thread sealant rated for hydraulic service and torque fittings per the system designer's specifications. Verify cavity size and thread standard match the manifold or inline body before final assembly.
