Description
When you’re out in the field and need to repair or modify a hydraulic line on the spot, the last thing you want is to head back to the shop for a special crimping tool. This field-attachable fitting lets you make secure connections right where you need them, using common tools you probably have on your tractor or in your toolbox.
What You’re Getting
- Field-attachable design means no expensive crimping equipment required
- Female flare connection provides secure, leak-free seal when properly installed
- Sized for standard 5/16-inch hydraulic hose commonly used on farm equipment
- Weatherhead quality construction handles agricultural hydraulic pressures
- Reusable design saves money compared to permanent crimp-on fittings
Built for Real Farm Work
This fitting works with the 5/16-inch hydraulic hose that’s standard on many tractors and implements, from remote hydraulic cylinders on three-point implements to auxiliary hydraulic lines on loaders and attachments. It’s handy for emergency repairs, custom hydraulic setups, or when you need to extend or modify existing hydraulic lines without heading to town for professional crimping.
Made to Last
Weatherhead has been making hydraulic fittings for decades, and this one shows why they’re trusted by farmers and mechanics. The materials handle the pressure spikes and constant vibration that come with farm equipment operation, while the flare design creates a metal-to-metal seal that won’t leak when properly tightened.
Installation Notes
This fitting requires proper flaring of the hose end to create a tight seal – make sure you have a good flaring tool and take your time getting the angle right. Clean both surfaces before assembly, and don’t over-tighten as this can damage the flare or fitting threads. A proper flare beats forcing a poor connection every time.
