Parker PC306V-BP Push-lok Hose Barb Straight Coupler 3/8 in

Product Description

The PARKER PC306V-BP is a Push-Lok hose barb straight coupler engineered for fluid-transfer lines that require a reliable, valved quick-disconnect. Made from brass and rated to 200 psi, this fitting accepts 3/8-inch Push-Lok hose and belongs to Parker's Moldmate series. The valved design allows the line to be disconnected without full system depressurization, reducing fluid loss and downtime during service. Its non-threaded shaft seats securely into compatible Push-Lok fittings without wrenches. Licensed plumbers, hydraulic technicians, and fluid-power mechanics install this coupler in both industrial and commercial fluid-system applications.

This coupler is suited for low- to medium-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic lines operating within a temperature range of -20 degrees F to 400 degrees F. The 3/8-inch hose diameter makes it a common choice for process lines, pneumatic tool drops, and fluid-transfer assemblies where a push-to-connect barb interface is specified. The brass construction offers good corrosion resistance in general-purpose fluid environments.

Key Features

• 200 psi maximum pressure rating for low- to medium-pressure fluid lines
• Valved design minimizes fluid loss when disconnecting under pressure
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance in general-purpose applications
• Non-threaded Push-Lok shaft for tool-free connection
• 3/8-inch hose diameter and 3/8-inch body diameter — consistent sizing across hose and fitting
• Moldmate series rated from -20 degrees F to 400 degrees F operating temperature range

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/8-inch Parker Push-Lok hose in the Moldmate series. Confirm hose series and inside diameter before installation to ensure a proper Push-Lok seat.

Installation Notes

Hydraulic and fluid-power technicians should depressurize and de-energize the system before removing existing fittings. Push-Lok barb couplers seat by pushing the hose end firmly onto the barb until fully engaged — no clamps or crimping tools are required for the barb connection, but verify system pressure does not exceed the 200 psi rating after reassembly. Inspect the hose end for cuts or abrasions before seating. Follow applicable fluid-system safety codes and the equipment manufacturer's service guidelines.
