Product Description

The PARKER KP38585 is a female JIC 37-degree swivel fitting designed for use with 1/4-inch hydraulic hose assemblies. This fitting provides a secure, leak-resistant connection at the hose end by utilizing a 37-degree flare seat mated with a swivel nut, allowing the fitting to rotate during assembly without twisting the hose. It is a standard component in hydraulic plumbing systems across mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and fluid power circuits. Installation is typically performed by hydraulic technicians or millwrights during hose assembly or system repair. Weighing approximately 0.01 pounds, the fitting is compact and lightweight.

The KP38585 is suited for hydraulic hose termination in applications requiring a JIC 37-degree female swivel connection on a 1/4-inch hose. Common install scenarios include constructing or replacing hydraulic hose assemblies on mobile equipment, agricultural machinery, and industrial fluid power systems where JIC fittings are the specified connection standard. This fitting is sold in a package quantity of two, making it practical for paired hose-end assemblies or having a spare on hand during field service.
