Parker KP84357 Hydraulic Hose Swivel Fitting 6mm Female

Product Description

The PARKER KP84357 is a female swivel fitting designed for hydraulic hose assemblies. It accepts a 6 mm (3/8 inch) hose and uses an M18x1.5 metric thread, allowing the hose end to rotate freely during connection so the hose does not twist under torque. The fitting is constructed from steel for strength under hydraulic system pressure. It is used by hydraulic technicians, fluid power specialists, and maintenance mechanics assembling or repairing high-pressure hydraulic lines in mobile and industrial equipment applications.

This swivel fitting is suited for hydraulic systems where hose routing requires a rotating connection point to prevent hose wind-up or kinking at the coupling. Typical install scenarios include mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and hydraulic power units where M18x1.5 female port connections are specified. The 3/8 inch hose diameter makes it a common size across a wide range of hydraulic circuit configurations. Sold in a package quantity of 2.

Key Features

• Female swivel design allows hose rotation at the connection point, reducing torsional stress on the hose
• M18x1.5 metric thread size for precise fitment in metric-ported hydraulic components
• Compatible with 6 mm (3/8 inch) hydraulic hose
• Steel construction provides durability under sustained hydraulic pressure
• Sold in a 2-piece package, minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 6 mm female swivel connection with M18x1.5 metric threading.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or fluid power mechanic. Depressurize and bleed down the hydraulic system completely before disconnecting or connecting any hose fitting. Inspect threads and sealing surfaces for damage before assembly, and apply appropriate thread sealant or O-ring as required by the port specification. Do not overtighten swivel fittings, as damage to the swivel collar or sealing surface will result in leakage.
