Parker PP-00240 Hydraulic Hose 90 Degree Elbow Fitting

Product Description

The PARKER PP-00240 is a 90-degree elbow hydraulic hose fitting designed to connect hoses in tight-routing applications where a straight fitting would create excessive bend stress. Manufactured from steel, this male NPTF fitting accommodates a 6 mm hose size with a 3/8-inch hose diameter and a 1/4-18 thread size. It is intended for use in hydraulic fluid systems where a directional change is required at the hose end. Installation is performed by hydraulic system technicians and maintenance mechanics working on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, or fluid power assemblies.

This fitting is suited for hydraulic systems requiring a 90-degree change in hose direction, commonly found in mobile hydraulic equipment, agricultural machinery, construction equipment, and industrial fluid power circuits. The male NPTF thread provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal without the need for additional sealant tape in many applications, though jobsite practices and system requirements should always be followed. The 6 mm hose size designation and 3/8-inch hose diameter make this fitting applicable to light-to-medium duty hydraulic hose assemblies.

Key Features

• 90-degree elbow configuration reduces hose stress in confined routing paths
• Male NPTF thread provides a dry-seal mechanical connection
• Steel construction for durability in hydraulic fluid environments
• 1/4-18 thread size for compatibility with standard NPT-ported components
• 3/8-inch hose diameter accommodates common light-duty hydraulic hose
• Sold in packages of 4 units

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies using 3/8-inch hose diameter and 1/4-18 male NPTF threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or mechanic. Depressurize and bleed the hydraulic system completely before disconnecting or installing any fittings. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal assembly, but always verify your system specification before applying or omitting thread sealant. Inspect threads for damage before installation and torque to the hydraulic system manufacturer's specifications.
