Parker KP84355 Hydraulic Hose Swivel Fitting 0.5 in Bspp

Product Description

The PARKER KP84355 is a straight swivel fitting designed for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a secure, leak-resistant connection at a threaded port. Constructed from steel, this fitting features a 1/2-14 BSPP (British Standard Pipe Parallel) thread and accepts hoses with a 0.5 inch inside diameter (Size 8). The swivel design allows the hose to be positioned and torqued without twisting the hose body itself, reducing stress and extending service life. With an overall length of 2.66 inches, it is suited for tight routing situations in mobile and industrial hydraulic circuits. Licensed hydraulic technicians and fluid power mechanics are the typical installers for this type of fitting.

This fitting is intended for use in hydraulic systems where BSPP threaded ports are specified, common in European-style equipment, mobile machinery, and industrial fluid power applications. It is compatible with a wide range of Parker hydraulic hose series including 187, 302, 304, 387, 422, 424, 426, 436, 471TC, 471ST, 472TC, 482TC, 482ST, 487, 722, 787, 797, and 881 hoses in both TC and ST end configurations. Package quantity is 2 fittings per unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power mechanic. Depressurize and bleed the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Inspect threads and sealing surfaces for damage before assembly. BSPP fittings rely on a face seal or bonded seal washer for leak-free connection — confirm the appropriate sealing method is used for the port being serviced. Follow equipment manufacturer torque guidelines and applicable fluid power standards during assembly.
