Parker PT-00576 Bite-type Male Connector 6mm 1/8 Npt Steel

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00576 is a flareless bite-type tube male connector designed for high-pressure hydraulic and instrumentation tubing systems. It uses a compression-style bite ring to grip 6 mm OD tubing without the need for flaring, creating a secure, leak-resistant connection. The straight-body design terminates in a 1/8 inch NPT male thread for direct connection to ports, manifolds, or valves. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 315 bar, this fitting is built for demanding industrial and fluid-power applications. Constructed from steel, it provides the durability required in hydraulic, pneumatic, and process lines. Licensed technicians and industrial pipefitters are the typical installers.

This fitting is suited for instrumentation tubing, hydraulic control lines, and pneumatic systems where flareless compression connections are specified. The 6 mm tube OD accommodates metric tubing common in European-standard and OEM machine tool, process control, and fluid-power installations. The 1/8 NPT thread interfaces with standard North American ported components, making this a crossover fitting for metric tube to NPT-ported equipment. It ships in a package quantity of 5.

Key Features

• Flareless bite-type design eliminates the need for tube flaring during assembly
• Rated to 315 bar maximum working pressure for high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic service
• 6 mm OD tube connection accepts standard metric tubing
• 1/8 inch NPT male thread for compatibility with NPT-ported valves, manifolds, and equipment
• Steel construction for durability in industrial fluid-power environments
• Straight body with 12 mm hex size for standard wrench installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style flareless bite-type fitting for use with 6 mm OD metric tubing in hydraulic, pneumatic, and instrumentation systems requiring 1/8 inch NPT port connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic or instrumentation technician following the fitting manufacturer's assembly procedure for bite-type compression fittings. Depressurize and isolate the system completely before disassembling any existing connections. Use a calibrated torque wrench and the specified hex size to seat the bite ring without over-tightening. Verify thread engagement and check for leaks after system re-pressurization.
