Parker PX-00296 Hydraulic Hose Nut Fitting 1/8-27 Npsm Steel

Product Description

The PARKER PX-00296 is a steel nut fitting designed for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 1/8-27 NPSM threaded connection. This fitting provides a secure, threaded interface at hose termination points in low- to medium-pressure hydraulic circuits. At 0.188 inches overall length and a shipping weight of 0.01 pounds per piece, it is a compact component suited for tight-clearance installations. This package contains 4 fittings. Licensed plumbers, hydraulic system technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals typically work with fittings of this type during hose assembly and system service.

The PX-00296 is suited for hydraulic hose and fluid line assemblies where a standard NPSM straight mechanical thread is required at the connection point. Its compact form factor makes it appropriate for space-constrained manifold connections, equipment ports, and hose end assemblies in both industrial and mobile hydraulic applications. The 1/8-27 thread size is common in low-flow instrumentation lines, control circuits, and auxiliary hydraulic ports found on a wide range of industrial and mobile equipment.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies requiring a 1/8-27 NPSM threaded nut fitting in steel construction.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or licensed plumber familiar with fluid power systems. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit fully before removing or installing any fittings. Use appropriate wrenches sized to the fitting flats and avoid over-tightening, which can damage NPSM threads or distort the fitting body. Verify thread engagement and check for leaks after restoring system pressure.
