Parker KP46845 Male Npt Swivel Fitting 0.5 in Straight

Product Description

The PARKER KP46845 is a male NPT swivel fitting designed for hydraulic hose assemblies in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems. Manufactured from steel with a straight shape and threaded connection type, this fitting features a 1/2-inch hose inside diameter and a 3/8-18 NPTF thread. The overall length is 3.3 inches. The male NPTF shaft type provides a pressure-tight seal on tapered pipe thread connections. This fitting is sold in packages of four and is intended for installation by qualified hydraulic system technicians and fluid power professionals.

This fitting is used in hydraulic hose assemblies where a swivel connection at a male NPTF port is required. It is suited for both stationary industrial equipment and mobile hydraulic applications. The straight configuration makes it appropriate for inline connections where hose routing does not require an angled adapter. Its steel construction handles the pressure and mechanical demands common in production, agricultural, and construction hydraulic circuits.
