It features an 8 mm tube outside diameter and a 1\/4 BSPP (British Standard Parallel Pipe) swivel thread, allowing the fitting to rotate freely during installation to reduce tube twist and simplify assembly. The bite-type design eliminates the need for tube flaring by using a cutting ring that bites into the tube wall on initial makeup, creating a leak-resistant mechanical grip. This connector is typically installed by licensed plumbers, hydraulic technicians, and fluid systems specialists working on industrial or commercial fluid line assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PT-00501 is suited for use in compressed air, hydraulic fluid, and general fluid transfer line assemblies where metric tube sizes and BSPP threaded ports are standard. The swivel feature makes it practical in tight or awkward installation positions where fixed fittings would cause tube stress. Applications include machine tool hydraulics, industrial process lines, and similar systems using 8 mm OD tubing routed to BSPP-ported components or manifolds. Each package contains 5 individual fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlareless bite-type design eliminates tube flaring — cutting ring bites into tube OD on assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwivel connector allows free rotation during tightening to prevent tube twist\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 mm tube outside diameter for metric tube lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 BSPP thread for compatibility with British Standard Parallel Pipe ported components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a package quantity of 5 fittings per order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 8 mm OD flareless metric tubing and components or manifolds with 1\/4 BSPP threaded ports.

Depressurize and isolate the fluid system completely before making or breaking any connections. Follow the fitting manufacturer's recommended assembly procedure for bite-type fittings, which typically requires a pre-assembly step to seat the cutting ring before final installation into the system. Ensure tube ends are cut square, deburred, and clean before insertion to achieve a proper seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flareless Bite-Type Swivel Connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube Outside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: BSPP (British Standard Parallel Pipe)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PARKER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PT-00501\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540949139762,"sku":"PT-00501","price":96.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1387a1cbc85e69f037e155e448d18e22_d6b7ef35-938f-41e3-a0f1-f78a89e49b5a.jpg?v=1785866321","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-pt-00501-bite-type-tube-swivel-connector-8mm-1-4-bspp","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
