Parker PT-00107 Bite-type Tube Male Connector 1/2 Od Steel

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00107 is a flareless bite-type tube male connector designed for high-pressure hydraulic and fluid power lines where a reliable, leak-resistant connection is required without flaring the tubing. Built from steel with a straight configuration and a 24-degree flared angle, this fitting accepts 1/2 inch tube OD and threads into a 1/4 inch NPTF port. It is rated to a maximum working pressure of 5,000 psi, making it well suited for demanding industrial and mobile hydraulic applications. Hydraulic technicians and pipefitters install this type of connector when routing steel tubing into manifolds, valves, or equipment housings that require a flareless bite-style termination.

This connector is used in hydraulic systems, fluid power circuits, and high-pressure plumbing assemblies across industrial, mobile equipment, and OEM manufacturing environments. The 1/4 inch NPTF thread provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal on compatible ported components. The flareless bite-type design eliminates the need for tube preparation with a flaring tool, relying instead on a ferrule to bite into the tube wall during assembly. Typical installations include hydraulic power units, cylinder lines, and machine tool plumbing where straight male-to-port connections are required.

Key Features

• Flareless bite-type design eliminates tube flaring during assembly
• Rated to 5,000 psi maximum working pressure
• 1/2 inch tube OD with 1/4 inch NPTF male thread for pressure-tight port sealing
• Steel construction for durability in high-pressure hydraulic service
• Straight fitting shape for direct inline tube-to-port connections
• 24-degree flared angle for proper ferrule engagement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic and fluid power systems requiring a flareless male connector with 1/2 inch tube OD and 1/4 inch NPTF ported connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or pipefitter. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit fully before removing or installing any fittings. Hand-tighten the NPTF thread before applying final wrench torque to avoid cross-threading; NPTF threads rely on thread deformation for sealing, so do not use thread sealant tape unless the system design specifically calls for it. Follow the fitting and equipment manufacturer assembly procedures for ferrule pre-setting to ensure a proper bite and leak-free connection.
