BH6-60/61, Parker 60 Series Brass Hydraulic Quick Coupling

Applications

Parker general purpose couplings, are used across the spectrum of hydraulic applications. These Double Shut-Off couplings can be found anywhere that fluid transfer lines need to be connected and disconnected for operation or maintenance of equipment, and a loss of fluid is undesirable. Primarily used with hydraulic fluid, general purpose DoubleShut-Off couplings are also used with chemicals, water, steam, and some gases.

Special Order Information

60 Series couplings are available in Chromium-6 Free plated steel, brass, 303 stainless steel, and 316 stainless steel. Brass couplings have double O-Ring seals and stainless locking balls.

Standard seal material is Nitrile; optional seal materials are available. For 316 stainless steel products, standard seal material is Fluorocarbon, and other seal materials are available upon

request. See Fluid Compatibility Chart at end of this catalog. All sizes of 60 Series can be furnished with locking sleeves. Place suffix letters “-SL” (Sleeve-Lok) after regular catalog

numbers. Example H3-62-SL. Parker 60 Series heavy duty nipples are recommended where high cycle rates and pressure surges are encountered. Machined from high tensile

steel and induction hardened, they are Chromium-6 Free plated. To specify a heavy duty nipple, add the prefix “HD” to the steel part number; thus: HD-H2-63.

Note

Protective dust plugs and caps play a crucial role in the life of a quick coupling and no purchase of a hydraulic quick coupling is complete without the selection of an appropriate

dust plug and cap. See pages noted in Table of Contents for dust plugs and caps for the Parker full line of hydraulic couplings.
