Parker KP46897 Hydraulic Hose Fitting 45 Degree Elbow

Product Description

The PARKER KP46897 is a 45-degree elbow hydraulic hose fitting designed for use in fluid power systems requiring a directional change at the hose termination point. Constructed from steel, this fitting accepts a 1-inch hose diameter and provides a reliable, leak-resistant connection under hydraulic system pressures. It is installed by licensed fluid power technicians, millwrights, and industrial maintenance professionals working on hydraulic circuits in mobile and stationary equipment. The 45-degree elbow orientation reduces hose stress at the connection point and allows routing in confined or angled installations where a straight fitting would create a tight hose bend.

This fitting is suited for industrial and mobile hydraulic applications including construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and manufacturing hydraulic circuits. It is used wherever a hose must transition at a 45-degree angle from a port or manifold. The 1-inch hose size makes it appropriate for medium-to-large flow hydraulic lines. Technicians select this elbow style to reduce abrasion, improve hose lay, and minimize stress at connection points in high-cycle or high-vibration environments.

Key Features

• 45-degree elbow geometry reduces hose bend stress at the fitting connection
• Steel construction provides durability in demanding hydraulic service conditions
• 1-inch hose diameter compatibility for medium-to-large hydraulic flow lines
• Designed to improve hose routing in confined or angled installation spaces
• Single-unit packaging supports individual replacement and service use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for 1-inch hydraulic hose assemblies in industrial and mobile fluid power systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified fluid power technician or hydraulic system specialist. Depressurize and fully de-energize the hydraulic system before removing or installing any fitting. Use appropriate hydraulic fitting tools and follow the equipment manufacturer's torque and assembly procedures for the fitting thread type. Inspect hose ends and sealing surfaces for damage before reassembly, and pressure-test the system after installation to confirm a leak-free connection.
