Parker VHN4-2M Hydraulic Hose Mpt Fitting 6500 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER VHN4-2M is a straight male pipe thread (MPT) fitting designed for use in hydraulic hose assemblies operating at working pressures up to 6,500 psi. Built from steel with a 1/4-inch body diameter and 1/8-inch NPT thread, this fitting connects hose ends to threaded ports in hydraulic circuits. Its straight configuration simplifies inline connections, and the threaded NPT interface provides a reliable, leak-resistant seal in high-pressure service. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic technicians typically specify this type of fitting when assembling or repairing fluid power lines in industrial and mobile equipment environments.

The VHN4-2M is rated for Series H hydraulic hose applications and is suited for industrial hydraulic lines, mobile equipment fluid circuits, and water and coolant lines. The straight body geometry and NPT thread make it a practical choice for routing hose assemblies directly into manifolds, valves, cylinders, or pump ports without angle adapters. Its compact overall length of 1.85 inches allows installation in tight access areas common on mobile machinery and industrial equipment skids.

• Compact overall length of 1.85 inches suits confined installation spaces

Compatibility

Designed for use with industrial hydraulic lines, mobile equipment fluid circuits, and water and coolant lines as part of the Parker Series H hydraulic hose fitting system.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician, pipefitter, or licensed mechanic familiar with high-pressure fluid power systems. Depressurize and isolate the hydraulic circuit completely before removing or installing any fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to NPT threads per the system manufacturer's recommendations and relevant fluid power standards. Inspect threads and sealing surfaces for damage before assembly, and do not overtighten, as NPT fittings rely on controlled engagement to seal without distorting the fitting body.
