Parker KP61683 Hydraulic Hose Swivel Fitting 6000 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER KP61683 is a 45-degree elbow swivel fitting designed for high-pressure hydraulic hose assemblies. Built from steel with a male NPTF threaded connection, this fitting is rated to 6,000 psi working pressure and conforms to SAE 140330 standards. It is part of Parker's Series 3107 line and accepts a 3/8-inch hose diameter with a 3/8-18 thread size. Hydraulic technicians and fluid power mechanics install this fitting where a secure, leak-resistant swivel connection is needed at a 45-degree angle in tight or directionally constrained plumbing runs.

This fitting is suited for industrial and mobile hydraulic systems where routing hose at a 45-degree angle reduces stress on hose ends and minimizes bend radius violations. It is appropriate for use in construction equipment, manufacturing machinery, and other high-pressure hydraulic circuits requiring a male NPTF interface. The swivel design allows the hose to rotate during installation, preventing hose twist and reducing the risk of assembly errors in confined spaces.

Key Features

• 6,000 psi maximum working pressure rating
• 45-degree elbow configuration for directional routing in tight installations
• Male NPTF threaded connection for a leak-resistant, dry-seal fit
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure hydraulic service
• Swivel design prevents hose twist during assembly
• Conforms to SAE 140330 standards

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for high-pressure hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 3/8-inch hose diameter, 3/8-18 male NPTF thread, and 45-degree elbow orientation in Parker Series 3107 applications.

Installation Notes

This fitting should be installed by a qualified hydraulic technician familiar with high-pressure fluid power systems. Depressurize and fully bleed the hydraulic system before removing or installing any fittings. NPTF threads rely on thread-form deformation for sealing; do not over-tighten, and inspect threads for damage before assembly. Verify hose and fitting pressure ratings are compatible with the system's maximum operating pressure before returning the system to service.
