Got a -03 hose I'm trying to terminate with a male NPT connection, this the right fitting for that?
Answer by: Customer Support on Dec 20, 2025, 6:41 AM
For a -03 size hose with a 1/8-27 male NPT thread connection, yes, that's exactly what this fitting is built for. It's a straight crimp configuration, so you'll be connecting in-line without any angle change. The die required for crimping is FT1243-100-3, so make sure your crimp machine is set up with that before you run the assembly. Also worth checking is the fluid compatibility document linked to this product, since optimal performance can vary depending on what's running through the system.
