Parker PT-00073 Steel Flared Tube Reducer 1 in Od 37 Degree

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00073 is a steel flared tube reducer fitting designed to transition between different tube sizes in high-pressure hydraulic and fluid power systems. It features a 37-degree flare angle with flare-on-both-ends connections, conforming to widely recognized industry standards. Rated to 4500 psi maximum working pressure and capable of handling temperatures up to 500 degrees F, this reducer is built for demanding industrial and fluid conveyance applications. With a 1-inch outside diameter and an overall length of 1.95 inches, it provides a compact, reliable connection point where tube size reduction is required. Installation is typically performed by hydraulic system technicians or licensed plumbers working with high-pressure fluid lines.

This fitting is suited for use in hydraulic systems, high-pressure fluid transfer lines, and industrial plumbing applications requiring a reducer between flared tube ends. The 37-degree flare profile aligns with SAE J514 and ISO 8434-2 specifications, making it appropriate for OEM assemblies and field repairs on equipment that follows those standards. It is commonly installed in mobile equipment, machine tool circuits, and industrial fluid power systems where tube-to-tube reduction is needed at connection points.
