Parker BPN252F Female Pipe Rigid Fitting 1/4 in 200 Psi Brass

Product Description

The PARKER BPN252F is a female pipe rigid fitting designed for use in hydraulic hose assemblies and fluid transfer systems. Manufactured from brass with an NPTF threaded connection, this straight fitting delivers a 200 psi maximum working pressure rating and handles temperatures from -20 degrees F to 400 degrees F. The 1/4 inch body diameter and 1/4 inch thread size make it a compact, direct-connect component. It is part of the Parker Moldmate series and is installed by plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic system technicians working on precision fluid circuits.

This fitting is rated for use with die casting equipment and mold coolant lines, where leak-free connections and thermal tolerance are critical. The Moldmate series targets industrial cooling and fluid control applications that require reliable, rigid pipe-end terminations. The NPTF thread form provides a pressure-tight seal without relying solely on sealant tape, making it well-suited for high-cycle industrial environments where joint integrity must be maintained under repeated thermal cycling.

Key Features

• Brass construction for corrosion resistance in coolant and hydraulic fluid service
• NPTF thread form creates a pressure-tight mechanical seal
• 200 psi maximum working pressure
• Wide service temperature range: -20 degrees F to 400 degrees F
• Straight, rigid body for direct inline pipe connections
• Part of the Parker Moldmate series, designed for die casting and mold coolant applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with die casting equipment and mold coolant lines as part of the Parker Moldmate series. Accepts 1/4 inch NPTF threaded connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or hydraulic technician. Depressurize and drain the system fully before removing or installing any fittings. NPTF threads are designed to seal on the thread form itself; apply thread sealant per system requirements and applicable standards. Inspect threads for damage before assembly and do not overtighten, as brass fittings are susceptible to thread deformation under excessive torque.
