Parker PT-00572 Bite-type Male Connector 4mm 1/8 Bspt

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00572 is a flareless bite-type tube male connector designed for use in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid transfer systems. It uses a compression-style bite ring to grip the tubing without requiring a flare, creating a secure, leak-resistant connection. The fitting accepts a 4 mm outside diameter tube and threads into ports with a 1/8 BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) thread. This connector is suited for installations where space is tight and a pre-flared tube end is not practical. It is typically installed by licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial fluid system technicians working on instrumentation or control-line applications.

This fitting is commonly used in residential and light commercial applications involving compressed air lines, hydraulic control circuits, instrumentation tubing, and similar small-bore fluid systems. The 1/8 BSPT male thread is a standard connection found on valves, manifolds, actuators, and control equipment. The 4 mm tube OD sizing is typical in instrumentation and pneumatic control lines. This connector ships in a package quantity of 5, making it practical for service technicians who need multiple fittings for a single job or ongoing maintenance stock.

Key Features

• Flareless bite-type design eliminates the need for pre-flaring the tube end
• Accepts 4 mm outside diameter tubing
• 1/8 BSPT male thread for direct port connection
• Compact form factor suited for tight-clearance installations
• Packaged in quantities of 5 per pack for efficient restocking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for systems using 4 mm OD tubing and 1/8 BSPT male port connections in pneumatic, hydraulic, or fluid instrumentation applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with fluid or pneumatic system service. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before removing or installing any fittings. Hand-tighten the fitting before applying final torque with a proper fitting wrench, and confirm the bite ring is fully seated on the tube before pressurizing. Follow all applicable codes and manufacturer procedures for the system being serviced.
