Parker PT-00064 Steel Flared Tube Reducer 1/2 in Od

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00064 is a steel flared tube reducer fitting designed for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid power line applications. It connects two flared tube ends of differing sizes, stepping down from a 1/2-inch OD tube connection to a 1/4-inch thread, using a 37-degree flare angle on both ends. Rated to 6000 psi maximum working pressure and a maximum working temperature of 500 degrees F, this reducer is built for demanding industrial and mobile hydraulic systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic technicians install this fitting where tube line size reduction is required within a flared-fitting assembly.

This fitting is suited for use in hydraulic lines, fuel systems, and fluid conveyance assemblies where 37-degree flare connections are specified. The flare x flare end configuration makes it appropriate for inline reductions in tubing runs on mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and related systems requiring a rated high-pressure fitting. The 1/2-inch outside diameter tube OD and 1/2 x 1/4 thread sizing are standard in many industrial fluid power circuits.

Key Features

• 37-degree flare angle on both ends for a leak-resistant metal-to-metal seal
• 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 durability in demanding fluid power environments
• Meets ISO 8434-2, SAE J514, and SAE 070123 standards
• Overall length of 1.5 inches for compact inline installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic and fluid power systems specifying 37-degree flare x flare reducer connections at 1/2-inch OD tube size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or licensed plumber familiar with flared tube fitting assembly. Depressurize and drain the fluid system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Use the appropriate flare nut and tubing preparation tools to ensure the tube end is properly formed to a 37-degree flare before assembly. Do not overtighten; consult applicable SAE and ISO standards for proper assembly practices.
