Parker KP46890 Hydraulic Hose 45 Degree Elbow Fitting

Product Description

The PARKER KP46890 is a 45-degree elbow hydraulic hose fitting manufactured from steel for use in hydraulic fluid conveyance systems. It accepts a 4 mm hose size with a 1/4-inch hose diameter and connects via a 1/2-20 thread. The 45-degree elbow geometry allows routing hose assemblies around obstructions or frame rails where a straight fitting would cause excessive bending stress on the hose. This fitting is installed by hydraulic technicians and fluid power specialists working on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and other hydraulic circuit applications.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic assemblies where a directional change at the hose termination point is required. The 45-degree angle reduces strain at the connection and helps maintain minimum bend radius compliance for the attached hose. Typical applications include mobile hydraulic equipment, industrial presses, lift systems, and other fluid power circuits requiring a compact elbow transition at a port or component inlet.

Key Features

• 45-degree elbow configuration for angled hose routing without excessive hose bend
• Steel construction for durability in hydraulic pressure environments
• 1/2-20 thread size for secure port connection
• 1/4-inch hose diameter compatibility with 4 mm hose size designation
• Compact form factor suited for tight installation spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 45-degree elbow termination with a 1/4-inch hose diameter and 1/2-20 thread port connection.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power specialist. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit fully before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect threads and sealing surfaces for damage before assembly, and ensure proper thread engagement without cross-threading. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque guidelines and relevant fluid power industry standards during assembly.
