Parker 44004-04A-E17 Quick-Disconnect for Ground Support Equipment - Phosphate Ester, Skydrol

The Parker 44004-04A-E17 Quick-Disconnect Fitting is designed for hydraulic systems using phosphate ester fluids, including Skydrol Type IV. Engineered for ground support equipment (GSE), this fitting provides reliable, leak-free connections and is easy to operate with one hand. Constructed from anodized aluminum alloy, this coupling is built to withstand harsh environments while maintaining superior performance. Its thread-together design and self-sealing valve ensure secure connections and minimize fluid spillage and air inclusion during disconnection.

Key Features:

• High Pressure Rating: With a maximum operating pressure of 3000 psig and burst pressure of 7500 psig, this coupling is reliable for moderate-pressure fluid systems.
• Fluid Compatibility: Specifically designed for phosphate ester fluids, including Skydrol Type IV, ensuring compatibility with hydraulic systems used in ground support.
• Efficient Fluid Flow: The self-sealing valve minimizes pressure loss and turbulence, allowing fluid to flow efficiently, while the flush-faced design reduces air inclusion or spillage during coupling or uncoupling.
• Durable Construction: Made from anodized aluminum alloy for excellent corrosion resistance and durability, even in harsh ground support environments.
• Compact Design: With a 1/4 inch inlet and 3.15-inch overall length, this coupling is ideal for installations where space is limited, providing robust performance.
