Parker PT-00517 Swivel Nut Run Tee M16x1.5 10mm Tube

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00517 is a flareless bite-type swivel nut run tee fitting designed for metric hydraulic and fluid power tubing systems. It accepts 10 mm outside diameter tubing and connects via M16x1.5 metric threads. The bite-type design uses a ferrule that bites into the tube wall on assembly, creating a leak-resistant connection without the need for flaring. This fitting is installed by licensed fluid power technicians and mechanical tradespeople working on hydraulic lines, pneumatic circuits, and instrumentation tubing in industrial and mobile equipment applications.

This fitting is suited for use in hydraulic and fluid power systems where metric tubing is specified. The swivel nut run tee configuration allows a branch takeoff while keeping the run line straight, and the swivel nut simplifies assembly in tight routing situations where rotating the tube or body is not practical. Typical applications include machine tool hydraulics, mobile equipment plumbing, and industrial fluid distribution panels requiring metric-standard connections.

Key Features

• Bite-type flareless design eliminates tube flaring during assembly
• Swivel nut construction simplifies installation in confined or fixed-line routing
• Run tee configuration provides in-line branch connection without breaking the main run
• M16x1.5 metric thread for compatibility with metric hydraulic components
• 10 mm tube OD sizing for standard metric tubing systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for metric hydraulic and fluid power systems using 10 mm outside diameter tubing with M16x1.5 metric threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified fluid power or mechanical technicians familiar with bite-type fitting assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic or fluid circuit fully before disassembly or fitting replacement. Bite-type fittings require proper pre-swaging or initial assembly torque per the fitting manufacturer's procedure to seat the ferrule correctly — do not substitute generic torque values. Follow applicable fluid system codes and equipment OEM guidelines for tube routing and support spacing.
