Parker BVHC8-8M Hydraulic Hose Mpt Fitting 2000 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER BVHC8-8M is a straight male pipe thread (MPT) fitting designed for use in hydraulic hose assemblies and fluid transfer lines. Machined from brass with an NPT threaded connection, this fitting handles working pressures up to 2,000 psi. At 2.57 inches in overall length with a 1/2-inch body diameter and 1/2-inch thread size, it is a compact, single-piece connector suited for permanent and serviceable hydraulic connections. Hydraulic technicians and equipment mechanics install this fitting on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and water or coolant systems where a reliable threaded male end is required to terminate a hose assembly.

The BVHC8-8M belongs to Parker Series H and is suited for residential and commercial applications wherever 1/2-inch NPT connections are specified. Typical installation scenarios include industrial hydraulic lines, mobile equipment hydraulic circuits, and water or coolant lines requiring a pressure-rated brass fitting. Its straight geometry makes it a direct in-line connector between a hose end and a port or manifold. Mechanics and hydraulic technicians working on forklifts, construction equipment, and industrial presses will find this fitting appropriate for standard 1/2-inch NPT threaded ports.

Compatibility

Designed for use with industrial hydraulic lines, mobile equipment hydraulic circuits, and water and coolant lines requiring a 1/2-inch NPT male pipe thread fitting rated to 2,000 psi.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by qualified hydraulic technicians or mechanics. Depressurize and drain the hydraulic or fluid system fully before removing any fitting or hose assembly. Apply thread sealant appropriate for the fluid type to the NPT male threads before installation; follow applicable fluid system codes for sealant selection. Do not overtighten brass NPT fittings, as brass is susceptible to thread damage under excessive torque.
