Parker KP81344 Hydraulic Hose Fitting 45 Degree Elbow

Product Description

The PARKER KP81344 is a 45-degree elbow hydraulic hose fitting designed for use in high-pressure hydraulic plumbing applications. Machined from steel, this male-threaded fitting connects to a 1/4-inch (4 mm) hose and uses a 7/16-24 thread size. It is engineered for reliable, leak-resistant performance in hydraulic circuits found in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and fluid power systems. Installation is typically performed by hydraulic technicians or millwrights during new builds, repairs, or line replacements. The angled design allows routing in tight spaces where a straight fitting would not clear adjacent components.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic system assemblies requiring a 45-degree directional change at the hose termination point. It is commonly used in mobile hydraulic circuits, construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and industrial fluid power systems where space constraints or routing requirements demand an elbow configuration rather than a straight connection. The steel construction makes it appropriate for systems operating under elevated pressure and temperature conditions typical of hydraulic circuits.

Key Features

• 45-degree elbow geometry for angled hose routing in tight installations
• 1/4-inch (4 mm) hose size compatibility
• 7/16-24 male thread for positive, leak-resistant connection
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure hydraulic applications
• Compact form factor suited for space-constrained hydraulic plumbing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hydraulic hose fitting for systems using 1/4-inch hose with 7/16-24 male threaded ports. Confirm thread form and pressure rating against system requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Hydraulic fittings of this type are installed by qualified hydraulic technicians or fluid power specialists. Depressurize and bleed down the hydraulic system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect threads and sealing surfaces for damage before assembly and apply appropriate thread sealant or verify the correct sealing method for this fitting type. Follow the equipment manufacturer and applicable fluid power standards for assembly procedures.
