Parker KP60943 Male Seal-lok Hydraulic Hose Fitting

Product Description

The PARKER KP60943 is a straight male Seal-Lok hydraulic hose fitting designed for use in high-pressure hydraulic systems. Machined from steel with a threaded connection type, this fitting accepts a 1/4-inch thread and mates with hoses at a 0.25-inch inside diameter (Hose Size 4). The overall length is 1.73 inches. It carries the Seal-Lok shaft type, which uses an O-ring face seal to minimize leak paths under pressure cycling. Hydraulic technicians and fluid power specialists install this fitting when assembling or replacing hose assemblies in mobile and industrial hydraulic circuits.

This fitting is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial hydraulic hose assembly work. It is used in hydraulic circuits where a reliable, leak-resistant male end connection is required at the hose-to-component interface. The straight configuration makes it appropriate for straightforward in-line routing applications where no elbow or swivel is needed. It is sold in a package quantity of four, making it practical for service shops stocking common fitting sizes.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician familiar with fluid power assembly practices. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit fully before disconnecting or installing any hose fittings. Inspect the O-ring sealing surface for damage before assembly and replace the O-ring if any deformation or cuts are present. Follow SAE J516 torque and assembly guidelines for Seal-Lok fittings to ensure a proper seal without over-tightening.
