The bite-type design eliminates the need for flaring the tube end, allowing the fitting sleeve to grip and seal directly onto the tube OD during assembly. This connector features an 18 mm tube outside diameter and a 1\/2 BSPP (British Standard Parallel Pipe) threaded port. The swivel function allows the port end to rotate during installation, reducing tube stress and simplifying routing in tight assemblies. It is typically installed by hydraulic system technicians, industrial pipefitters, and fluid power specialists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fitting is suited for industrial fluid power and hydraulic plumbing applications where metric tube sizes and BSPP ported components are standard. The 18 mm tube OD and 1\/2 BSPP thread combination is common in European-specification and ISO-standard hydraulic circuits found in mobile equipment, industrial machinery, and process systems. The swivel body accommodates final tightening and alignment without twisting the tube run, which is especially useful in multi-line manifold installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlareless bite-type design grips the tube OD directly, no tube flaring required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwivel port end allows rotation during assembly to reduce tube stress and ease routing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18 mm tube outside diameter accommodates metric tube sizing per ISO standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 BSPP threaded port for connection to parallel-thread hydraulic ports and manifolds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged in quantity of 2 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style fitting for hydraulic and fluid power systems using 18 mm OD metric tubing with 1\/2 BSPP ported components.

Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Follow the fitting manufacturer assembly instructions for sleeve pre-setting and nut engagement turns, as improper bite-type assembly is a leading cause of fitting leakage. Verify that the tube OD and wall thickness are within the fitting manufacturer specifications prior to assembly.\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: 18 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2\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: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27121700\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-00505\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PARKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541652734258,"sku":"PT-00505","price":54.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2e06ef3441f67e960a73735151afa12d.jpg?v=1785881254","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/parker-pt-00505-bite-type-tube-swivel-connector-18mm-1-2-bspp","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
