Parker PT-00062 Steel Flared Tube Reducer 3/8 in 37 Deg

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00062 is a steel flared tube reducer fitting designed for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid power lines. It connects two flared tube ends of differing sizes, transitioning from a 3/8 inch tube OD to a 1/4 inch thread, using a 37-degree flare angle on both ends. Rated to 6000 psi maximum working pressure and capable of handling temperatures up to 500 degrees F, this reducer is built for demanding industrial and mobile hydraulic applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic system technicians install this type of fitting during system assembly or repair.

This fitting suits hydraulic lines, fuel systems, and other high-pressure fluid circuits where a tube-to-tube reduction is needed without transitioning to a different connection style. The flare x flare end configuration makes it appropriate for use in systems built to SAE J514 and ISO 8434-2 standards, common in industrial machinery, mobile equipment, and commercial fluid power installations. It is sold in packages of 5 units.

Key Features

• 37-degree flare angle on both ends for leak-resistant metal-to-metal seating
• Rated to 6000 psi maximum working pressure for high-pressure hydraulic service
• Maximum working temperature of 500 degrees F (260 degrees C)
• Steel construction for strength and compatibility with a wide range of hydraulic fluids
• Compliant with ISO 8434-2, SAE 070123, and SAE J514 standards
• Overall length of 1.4 inches; 3/8 inch outside diameter

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic and fluid power systems requiring a 37-degree flare x flare tube reducer with a 3/8 inch OD and 3/8 x 1/4 thread specification, conforming to SAE J514 and ISO 8434-2 standards.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or qualified mechanic familiar with high-pressure fluid systems. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit fully before removing any existing fitting or installing this reducer. Inspect flare seats on both mating tubes for damage or debris before assembly, as a clean, undamaged flare surface is essential for a leak-free connection. Torque to the fitting manufacturer specification for the tube size and follow applicable industry codes for the system type.
