Parker PT-00800 Bite-type Tube Bulkhead Union 18mm

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00800 is a flareless bite-type tube bulkhead union designed for routing tubing through panels, bulkheads, or partition walls in fluid and pneumatic systems. The bite-type design uses a ferrule that bites into the tube OD on assembly, creating a secure, leak-resistant connection without requiring tube flaring. With an 18 mm tube OD rating, this fitting is suited for medium-bore hydraulic and pneumatic plumbing in industrial, mobile equipment, and mechanical system applications. Installation is performed by qualified pipefitters, hydraulic technicians, or mechanical contractors working with metric tube systems.

This bulkhead union is used where tubing must pass cleanly through a panel or structural divider and maintain a secure, serviceable connection on both sides. Typical applications include hydraulic power units, pneumatic control panels, fluid transfer systems, and equipment enclosures requiring organized tube routing. The flareless bite-type construction is common in European-standard and metric-dimensioned systems. This listing covers a package quantity of 2 fittings.

Key Features

• Flareless bite-type design eliminates tube flaring during assembly
• Bulkhead configuration allows tube pass-through of panels and partitions
• 18 mm tube OD sizing fits standard metric tube plumbing
• Union style provides serviceable, disconnectable connections on both sides of the bulkhead
• Sold in a package quantity of 2 fittings per order

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for metric tube hydraulic and pneumatic systems using 18 mm OD tube with flareless bite-type connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or hydraulic technician familiar with bite-type ferrule fittings and metric tube systems. Depressurize and isolate the fluid or pneumatic circuit fully before disassembling any existing connections. Follow the fitting manufacturer torque and assembly procedure for bite-type ferrule engagement to ensure proper seating without over-tightening. Verify tube OD, wall thickness, and material compatibility with system pressure and fluid type before installation.
