Parker PX-00284 Hydraulic Hose Male Connector Nptf Steel

Product Description

The PARKER PX-00284 is a straight male connector fitting designed for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a secure, leak-resistant threaded connection. Built from steel with an NPTF thread configuration, this connector is sized for hose with a 0.125 inch inside diameter and uses a 1/4-18 thread size. The NPTF thread form creates a pressure-tight seal through thread interference, reducing reliance on sealant tape in many applications. At 1.51 inches overall length, it is a compact inline connector suited for tight routing in hydraulic circuits. This fitting is installed by hydraulic technicians and mechanical tradespeople working on low- to medium-pressure fluid systems.

This connector is appropriate for use in industrial hydraulic systems, mobile equipment fluid lines, and machinery where a straight male-to-hose termination is required. The Series CY designation places it within a standardized Parker fitting family commonly found in production and maintenance environments. The steel construction supports use in applications where durability and resistance to mechanical stress are required. This fitting ships in a package quantity of four units.

Key Features

• NPTF straight thread provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal through thread interference
• Steel construction for durability in hydraulic and fluid system environments
• 0.125 inch hose inside diameter compatibility for small-bore hydraulic lines
• 1/4-18 thread size for standard NPT port engagement
• Compact 1.51 inch overall length suits tight installation spaces
• Straight shape simplifies inline hose-to-port connections

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies using 0.125 inch inside diameter hose with 1/4-18 NPTF threaded ports.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or millwright familiar with fluid power systems. Depressurize and drain the hydraulic circuit fully before removing or installing any fittings. NPTF threads are designed to seal on thread engagement, but inspect threads for damage before assembly and apply thread sealant per system or OEM requirements. Torque to the system or fitting manufacturer specification using appropriate crowfoot or open-end wrenches.
