Thumbnail Filmstrip of MP-08-08-43 | 1/2" Hose x 1/2" NPTF Male Pipe (43 Series) Images
A MP-08-08-43 | 1/2" hose x 1/2" NPTF male pipe is a type of hydraulic fitting that consists of two parts: a hose fitting with a 1/2" inside diameter and a male pipe fitting with a 1/2" size and NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel) thread type. The NPTF thread has a tapered design that allows the fitting to create a seal as it is tightened into a matching female NPTF fitting, without the need for a sealing washer or O-ring. It is often used in conjunction with a matching female NPTF fitting and sealing tape or thread sealant to ensure a leak-free connection. This hydraulic fitting features a Parker compatible 43 series fitting on the male end, which has a unique shape that allows it to provide a reliable seal at high pressures.
These fittings are designed to work in Parker crimping machines and with Parker hose. These fittings will crimp the same as a Parker 43 series fitting in your Parker machine, or you can use our Crimp Specs if you have an adjustable hose crimper. Currently we have a limited thread selection, but are bringing in more threads and sizes within the next 6 months. Don't see a fitting you are looking for? Give us a call or email us and we will let you know if that one is already on our list.
Our Parker Compatible 43 series fittings feature 2 etched lines along the lower part of the shell, indicating they are for use with most 2-wire hydraulic hoses.
Important Note: The number stamped on the shell of these fittings relates to the hose size.

NPT (National Pipe Taper) and NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel) threads are similar but not identical; NPTF threads have a more precise design for a leak-free seal without additional sealants. While they can sometimes be used together in non-critical applications, it is not recommended for high-pressure or safety-critical systems due to potential leakage issues.
