This carbon steel nipple assembly connects a female SAE 45 flare end to a male hose/tube end, making it a practical transition fitting for hydraulic hose assemblies. With a hose dash size of -5 and a 0.5-inch end size on the SAE 45 side, it is sized for common medium-pressure hydraulic line configurations. The 0.5-inch hex on the male end allows for standard wrench engagement during installation.
The Aeroquip Crimp Fittings - Code series is manufactured from carbon steel, offering reliable strength for hydraulic service environments. The crimp-style construction is compatible with Aeroquip hose assembly tooling and is suited for use in fluid power circuits where a secure, leak-resistant connection between rigid and flexible lines is required. A fluid compatibility reference document is available from the manufacturer for guidance on media suitability.
