Parker PT-00820 Bite-type Tube Union Tee 22mm

Product Description

The PARKER PT-00820 is a flareless bite-type tube union tee designed for hydraulic and fluid conveyance systems where a reliable, leak-resistant connection is required without flaring the tubing. The fitting accepts 22 mm outside diameter tubing and uses a bite-type ferrule mechanism that grips and seals the tube wall upon assembly. This style of fitting is widely used in industrial and mobile hydraulic plumbing, instrumentation lines, and fluid transfer applications. Installation is handled by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or hydraulic system technicians working on pressurized tubing circuits.

The PT-00820 union tee configuration provides a three-way branch connection, allowing a single inline run to split or feed a secondary line without additional adapters. It is suited for applications where rigid or semi-rigid tubing must be joined at a branch point in a compact, clean configuration. The flareless design reduces field preparation time compared to flare-type fittings, making it practical for tight installation environments.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for fluid conveyance and hydraulic tubing systems using 22 mm outside diameter rigid or semi-rigid tubing with flareless bite-type connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, plumber, or hydraulic technician familiar with flareless bite-type fitting assembly procedures. Depressurize and isolate the fluid circuit completely before disassembling or installing any fittings. Follow the fitting manufacturer's assembly instructions for ferrule pre-swaging and final torque procedure, as improper assembly is a leading cause of flareless fitting leaks. Verify tubing is cut square, deburred, and free of contamination before insertion.
